Policy Advisor Message
Healthcare is a serious and complex business, offering numerous challenges and plenty of opportunities. No health system, no matter how committed, can tackle all the challenges at the same time. But we do have to figure out a way to manage them. I believe the way to do this will be through the power of communication. We must improve communication between patients and their care givers. We must focus on providing patient-centered care, which means we must collectively talk with patients and their healthcare providers to understand and respond to their needs. We must be sure we focus on the whole patient too, taking into account the patient’s physical, mental and emotional health.
