“…Reform of provider reimbursement methods to create patient-centered healthcare system is highly demanded [ 52 ]. In addition, as aforementioned, patients’ poor oral health literacy can also challenge the dentist to SDM [ 53 , 54 ]. Oral health education to the public as well as development and provision of patient decision aids can support SDM implementation in dental settings.…”

Background Patient-centered care (PCC) has been one of medical practice’s most frequently discussed principles. However, attitudes toward PCC among dentists remain underexplored. This study focuses on examining dentists’ patient-centered attitudes and investigating their predictors. Methods The Patient–Practitioner Orientation Scale which consists of Sharing and Caring subscales was used to assess patient-centered attitudes. The statistical analysis included 217 dentists from South Korea. Hierarchical linear regression analysis was performed to examine the predictors such as sociodemographic aspects, academic factors, work-related factors, and empathy. Results A patient-centered attitude of Caring subscale (M = 4.29, SD = 0.56) emerged, but the provider-centered attitude was higher in Sharing subscale (M = 3.40, SD = 0.48). Work year, academic track, and empathy were associated significantly with an overall caring aspect of patient-centered attitude, while the gender effect remained insignificant. Empathy had a critical and significant impact on the patient-centered attitude. Conclusions Efforts to enhance patient-centeredness in Sharing are needed; post-graduate education and transition to a more patient-centered health system are recommended. Moreover, empathy still matters as it was found to be a significant predictor of patient-centered attitudes. The findings of this study support the need for efforts to enhance patient-centered attitudes among dentists, which will help generate discussion on improving the curriculum of post-graduate education and health system reform.

Objectives: To elucidate the essential competencies required for patient engagement in their own safety. Method: We adopted a phenomenological approach in qualitative research to conduct semi-structured interviews with nurses (n=14) and adult patients (n=13) from different departments. By deeply exploring their experiences and feelings about patient participation in patient safety, we sought to understand their views on the qualities that patients need to possess in order to participate in their own safety. Results：From the interviews，we identified seven major themes, including competence of information sharing, competence of taking patient engagement as responsibility and right, competence of making equal communication, competence of maintaining trust relationship with health personnels, competence of accepting non-punitive safety culture, need of resource support, need of channels to provide accurate health information, five of them showed essential competences for patients and two of them showed patients’ need for promoting their engagement. Conclusion：The findings of this study show necessary competence and needs in patient engagement process of patient, offer a foundational reference for constructing a measurement tool for patient engagement in patient safety competence in the future, so that medical staff and patients can provide reference for the future targeted construction of patient competence improvement programs. At the same time, improving patient competence and engagement to better achieve safety goals requires the joint efforts of patients, medical staff, medical institutions, the government, and society.

Assessment of (digital) health literacy in the hospital can raise staff awareness and facilitate tailored communication, leading to improved health outcomes. Assessment tools should ideally address multiple domains of health literacy, fit to the complex hospital context and have a short administration time, to enable routine assessment. This review aims to create an overview of tools for measuring (digital) health literacy in hospitals. A search in Scopus, PubMed, WoS and CINAHL, following PRISMA guidelines, generated 7252 hits; 251 studies were included in which 44 assessment tools were used. Most tools (57%) were self-reported and 27% reported an administration time of <5 min. Almost all tools addressed the domain ‘understanding’ (98%), followed by ‘access’ (52%), ‘apply’ (50%), ‘appraise’ (32%), ‘numeracy’ (18%), and ‘digital’ (18%). Only four tools were frequently used: the Newest Vital Sign (NVS), the Short Test of Functional Health Literacy for Adults ((S)TOFHLA), the Brief Health Literacy Screener (BHLS), and the Health Literacy Questionnaire (HLQ). While the NVS and BHLS have a low administration time, they cover only two domains. HLQ covers the most domains: access, understanding, appraise, and apply. None of these four most frequently used tools measured digital skills. This review can guide health professionals in choosing an instrument that is feasible in their daily practice, and measures the required domains.
