• Resumen

  •  Introduction:This study aimed to assess the role of leadership in promoting patient-centered care in healthcare organizations. Patient-centered care is an approach that focuses on meeting patients' individual needs and preferences, thereby improving their overall experience and outcomes. Effective leadership is crucial in driving the implementation of patient-centered care in healthcare settings.Methods:A literature review was conducted to gather relevant studies on leadership and patient-centered care. The articles were critically analyzed using a deductive approach to identify key themes and draw conclusions. Results:The review revealed that effective leadership is essential in promoting patient-centered care. Transformational leadership, which emphasizes individualized consideration and intellectual stimulation, was found to be most beneficial in this context. This type of leadership empowers healthcare professionals to actively involve patients in their care actively, leading to higher patient satisfaction and improved outcomes. Servant leadership, which focuses on serving the needs of others, was also found to be effective in promoting patient-centered care.Conclusions:This study highlights the crucial role of leadership in promoting patient-centered care. Healthcare organizations should focus on developing and nurturing transformational and servant leaders to drive the implementation of patient-centered care. By prioritizing patient needs and preferences and involving them in decision-making processes, leaders can create a culture of patient-centered care within their organizations, ultimately improving patient outcomes and experiences. Further research is needed to explore the specific leadership styles and strategies that are most effective in promoting patient-centered care.
