Art of Care

Quality patient care does not simply mean technological expertise. Rather, the Agency has a responsibility to promote a climate of total care that stresses the psychological and social needs, as well as the physical needs of patients. To balance the high tech atmosphere of today’s agencies, there must be an effort to recognize and respond to the human needs of the patient, physician, staff and others.

Creating a Caring Climate:

  • Improves the quality of care
  • Contributes to the image of the Agency
  • Tends to reduce cases of litigation
  • Increases employee’s pride in the Agency, which reduces stress and staff turnover
  • Increases referrals, since physicians, patients and families choose the agency that not only offers technological expertise but is pleasant to deal with.

Agency staff should demonstrate that they regard patients as valuable individuals who should be treated with respect by all who interact with them. This may include simple etiquette, such as:

A. Referring to patients by name  B. Including patients in discussions of their plan of care

Studies have shown that health is restored more quickly when patients sense that they are active participants in the restoration process. Most patients are unable to evaluate the technical quality of the medical care rendered, but relate more readily to Art-of-Care issues, friendliness, personal comfort, timely responses, cleanliness, etc.

Each and every employee has the responsibility of promoting a caring climate. Remember, caring is contagious – – catch it!
