TI  - Human rights in health / why patient rights?
AB  - Patient rights aim to protect human rights while benefiting from health services. In the statements made about patient rights, attention is paid to the connections of these rights with human rights. Since it is a topic with such intensive relations with human rights, the discussion of whether human rights will be sufficient to protect the rights of individuals benefiting from health services without the "patient rights" subtitle comes to mind. If patient rights are "reflection and extension of human rights" in the field of health; Is it not possible to protect these rights directly only under human rights? Why is the patient rights title needed? What is the benefit in addressing these rights under a separate heading? Answering their questions will provide an important step in the answer to the question of why the topic of patient rights is included under the heading of human rights. In our article, attention has been drawn to the fundamentals and importance of the rights of individuals benefiting from healthcare services in the subtitles of human rights, based on different discussions, both in terms of human rights and freedoms and ethically. The approaches of countries in the world about patient rights could be explained in detail. There has been an important study expressing the basic philosophical state of patient rights.
