This chapter aims to describe the variety of instruments developed for the measurement of individuality and person-centredness in healthcare from patients’ and healthcare professionals’ perspective. As the topics of individualised care and person-centredness have long been of interest and researchers have defined these concepts in different ways, instruments have also been developed for the measurement of these abstract concepts.
