Great Video from Press Ganey https://lnkd.in/gQdRFtDY Press Ganey addresses emotional care in the Compassionate Connected Care™(CCC) model.  The model includes: Acknowledge suffering: We should acknowledge that our patients are suffering and show them that we understand. Body language matters: Non-verbal communication skills are as important as the words we use. Anxiety is suffering: Anxiety and uncertainty are negative outcomes that must be addressed. Coordinate care: We should show patients that their care is coordinated and continuous, and that we are always there for them Caring transcends diagnosis: Real caring goes beyond the delivery of medical interventions to the patient. Autonomy reduces suffering: Autonomy helps preserve dignity for patients. #patientcare #patientexperience #patientsatisfaction #compassion #suffering #autonomy Emerus Holdings, Inc.

While visually stunning, the film misses an opportunity to fully explore the emotional weight of this critical conversation. Steven dives into the nuances of this issue, breaking down definitions, ethical considerations, and the role of healthcare providers in supporting end-of-life decisions.
