#FamilyCentric #PatientCentric #ConsumerCentric planning/care thread 🧵
Even prior to my career I was interested in care that was #centric to the person, re of scenario (#homelessness, #mentalhealth, #health, #disabled etc). In every position I’ve held I’ve always centered on 1/
Before anything listening to person and or family, planning being centric, based on strengths & needs of Ind and or family. People (those working in system) found it radical but it worked it was effective. It pushed systems, thus in many places the process retreated back to 2/
‘Business as usual’ which is exactly where the problem is. We have mounds of research on #engagement we know the benefits that could be produced yet going from point A to B, is ‘too difficult’. Yes, implementing authentic #engagement would come with changes and yes they are 3/

Warning ⚠️ ⚠️ I AM snarky. I get that we have an individual responsibility for our health. I get that but articles & comments as below definitely get my snark up. My kids have T3 #diabetes which is unbelievably difficult to control & truly cannot be controlled with #diet. 1/ ImageImage
furthermore inds present differently with T1 & T2. My nephew’s bs actually skyrocketed when playing basketball - a sport he loved and was good at. #Diabetes is hard to manage & costly. Furthermore there has been research highlighting harms of a restrictive diet particularly on 2/
children/youth. Articles such as this & statements such as this seems very flippant and NOT #patientcentric at ALL. We also have a greedy #pharmaceutical industry that needs to be held in check & they are NOT. There is no reason why the cost of #insulin has #skyrocketed. 3/

Thread: Thoughts on #valuebased & #patientcenteredcare

Within #healthcare & #advocacy there seems to be a great deal of discussion on both #valuebased care & #PCC. #Healthcare costs have skyrocketed’ & thus a need to #reduce. I am not an #economist but as a #caregiver I 1/
definitely have seen ‘waste’. From my POV costs will continue to skyrocket even if #valuebased care is implemented. One reason (again not an economist) is the vulture ‘istic’ aspect of industries profiting from our system. The other reason is that our system is not centered 2/
around the #patient or patients needs. Thus, if the value based metric is reduced hospital admissions, this, on the face seems straight forth, however if the patients needs are not taken into account but only focused on established metric, costs could (& I will argue often r) 3/

#PatientCentric care, #PtExperience #Tokenism, #HoldingSpace #WeAreBetterTogether ⚠️ long thread.
Recently I attended a meeting of an organization whose focus is in improving #healthcare. This is a highly respected organization. One ☝🏼 of their founding principles is the 1/
engagement of various #stakeholders including #patients and #caregivers. This was not the 1st meeting of this org. I have attended. I walked away from this particular meeting sad, frustrated & a bit angry. The topic was on #patientcentric care. A topic that is near & dear 2/
to me. The caliber of individuals involved was spectacular; academics, researchers, consultants. As I scrolled through participants as well as listened to the conversation and watched the comments come across the screen I was enthralled with the dialogue however 3/

I’ve continued to see a divide in #pain community, a lack of support as well as pretty blatant attacks. My position: none of us speak for the entire community. We all have are personal stories. Each is unique and sacred. Pain occurs on a continuum and there are 1/
a variety of variables involved. As a parent what I want is a wider variety of options that is paid by insurance, I want voices to be heard, I want individual care, transparency and partnership with physicians & HCP. I want accessibility in the community I live 2/
I want a coordinated approach that is patient and family centric that takes into account barriers of treatments. When I say I want a variety of strategies & treatments I absolutely mean it. My kids have utilized ACT and CBT in a variety of settings. Sadly in only 3/
