A question was asked to a group of patients - As a patient being treated in “ANY” hospital or clinic, what would you consider to be MOST important to you: (With 1 being the MOST important and 4 being the LEAST important).
Hence the name of the book Many will be astounded by the opinions, concerns and the findings of that one question. In the pages of The R.I.C.H. Experience you will hear the voice of patients in healthcare communities. We must shift and design an organizational culture that is beyond patients but people centered that provides value-based care. When we respond positively to the needs of all, then we will see improved health outcomes, patient satisfaction, loyalty and trust.
