Abstract

The provision of comprehensive social and psychological care before and during hospitalization is critical for optimizing patient outcomes and enhancing overall healthcare delivery. This abstract explores the significance of addressing patients’ holistic needs throughout their hospitalization journey. Before admission, interventions such as counseling, social support networks and education mitigate anxiety, improve coping mechanisms, and prepare patients for medical procedures. During hospitalization, patient-centered communication, psychological support services, and family involvement play pivotal roles in promoting emotional resilience and facilitating recovery. Integrating these approaches into clinical practice not only improves patient satisfaction but also contributes to better clinical outcomes and reduces healthcare costs. This review synthesizes current evidence and highlights the importance of holistic care in fostering a supportive healthcare environment that meets the diverse needs of patients.
