A New Culture in Healthcare
PATIENT-PARTNERED CARE
The health care system is incredibly complex and medical education often reinforces a culture that results in parent/child relationship rather than partners in health both bringing expertise to the relationship.
As a practicing questionologist who studies current behavioral science, a long history of managing change and a deep commitment to helping others, Patient is Partner, LLC brings a unique perspective to enhance health care. How might we solve the most thorny problems in Healthcare- WITH Patients as equal partners at the table?
Change Agent
It is incredibly challenging to change, particularly in the health care arena, where so much is routinized and "factory like" focused on efficiency. How might we change this and include patients (often not from the healthcare world) in the change process?
Educate and Innovate
My experience in building new, innovative ways to educate and innovate-- How might we start a movement engaging patients deeply and meaningfully in our practice? TOGETHER- Let's tackle the big and small issues!
Building a Questioning Culture: Curiosity breeds Innovation
At Age 4, we ask almost 300 questions a day--- how many are we asking as adults? How might we create a culture of curiosity? How do we do so with our patients, family members and care givers?
