  • Title: Helping hospitals spread the word about their patient focused care programs. Helping professionals "see" their future contributions.
    Author: Leander WJ.
    Journal: Rev Patient Focus Care Assoc; 1992; ():21-3. PubMed ID: 10133401.
    Abstract:
    In summary, any communications plan must meet two critical requirements if it is to successfully rally professional support for your patient focused care program. First, it must explicitly present a "vision" of the future role of professionals within your patient focused hospital. Neither your program nor these professionals benefit from them having to deduce their own future roles. Second, it must reorient the way in which these professionals view their roles. Today's almost demeaning, task-oriented view needs to be replaced with one attuned to the unique contributions professionals make now and in the future. By helping professionals "see" their future contributions, effective communications can keep your patient focused care program out of the grave and in perfect health for years to come.
