Dignity-based care and infertility treatment: A qualitative study
Dignity-based care in infertility treatment services means "conserving dignity in providing care services; making the information accessible and obtaining informed consent for care procedure; providing professional care and standard services; and considering cultural and social aspects of infertility." This concept can be used in future policy-making and planning, and appropriate support should be taken into account to improve the quality of infertility treatment services.
