One lesson from the pandemic is that individuals must prioritize their health & ensure they are being #proactive. Don't wait until symptoms appear. As I shared in this article, #regularscreenings can detect #cancer early when treatment is most effective. fxn.ws/3KMfgwX
As #healthcare providers, let's remember that patients are more than just a list of symptoms or a diagnosis. Instilling #empathy in our #patient interactions will make a significant impact on their #care. Here are 4 best practices that I use and share with my trainees:
Never touch the door handle until you walk out the door: This gesture shows #patients that we are fully present and #engaged until the very end of our interaction.
Never call a patient by their first name unless they are personal friends of yours: #Patients should be addressed with respect & dignity. If a patient specifically requests to be addressed by their first name, then honor that request.
Sit at eye-level with the #patient: This simple gesture can make a big difference when it comes to building trust with the patient. It truly shows our #empathy and understanding.
Thank you @DrMarkADavis for bringing your perspective to @BeckersHR on the importance of a strong #OrganizationalCulture where all team members feel heard & valued. I’m grateful that this is one of the defining characteristics of @BHCancerCare @BaptistHealthSF.
Despite an alarming increase in #cancer rates, #precisionmedicine is taking care to the next level by optimizing tumor response, preserving organ’s functions & patient's quality of life. I'm hopeful to see how precision medicine keeps progressing & revolutionizing #cancercare.
As I told @BeckersHR, we're on the threshold of new discoveries that will continue to open the path for improved #cancercare and patient outcomes. Read more about my take on the future of cancer care, managing #burnout, and lessons learned, here: bit.ly/3mugyEm
