patient's
Belonging to invalid
Patient's is the possessive form of patient, indicating something belonging to or associated with a person receiving medical care.
It appears constantly in healthcare contexts: the patient's medical history, patient's rights, patient's condition.
The form can also be possessive of the adjective-turned-noun patient, meaning someone who demonstrates patience, though this usage is rare.
