Liv Hospital, which serves with the understanding of Human Centered Care, is preparing for Planetree Accreditation. Auditors from Planetree, a non-governmental organization that has a say in Human Centered Care, will conduct interviews at Liv Hospital. 

What is Human Centered Care (Planetree)?

Planetree is an international organization and accreditation system that adopts the patient-centered care model and promotes a human-centered approach in healthcare. Founded in 1978 by Angelica Thieriot, Planetree International works to ensure that patients, families and healthcare professionals have a more humane, holistic and personalized health experience.  Through a rigorous verification process involving patients, their families and caregivers, the program recognizes healthcare organizations and providers that have achieved superior implementation of person-centered care. 

Planetree implementation is guided by 4 principles:

  • Respect for the patient,
  • Information sharing,
  • Participation,
