COMMUNICATION IS CARE.
Written with the intention to provoke healthcare providers to think about the intangible of communication as not a soft skill – but a psychological force and core skillset in the delivery of quality healthcare, Communication is Care delivers the following concepts to current and future healthcare providers:
• Define and align your purpose
• Practice with compassion and empathy
• Listen presently and completely
• Guide from a place of integrity
• Empower patients to be their own advocates
• Focus on solutions, not barriers
• Create a safe therapeutic environment
• Prevent unnecessary conflict
• Reflect and grow with impact
Using her own personal narrative as a caregiver in her father’s 10-year health journey, which began at the onset of her professional career as a Physiotherapist, George beautifully illustrates the importance of compassion, empathy and empowering patients through words – discovering that strong communication skills can lead patients to reaching their highest level of recovery, function and independence.
What sets Communication is Care apart from other educational books are the engaging stories, touching narrative, and helpful insights from a healthcare provider navigating both sides of the healthcare system for more than 10 years — as a professional in the service of her patients and a daughter, witnessing her father’s rollercoaster journey through the healthcare system.
