individualized care

Custom patient attention

Individualized care is healthcare or support tailored to a specific person's needs, preferences, and circumstances rather than following a one-size-fits-all approach.

The term appears frequently in nursing, elder care, and education: The facility prides itself on individualized care plans for each resident.

It emphasizes treating people as individuals rather than cases or conditions.
