About this listen
From cutting down the use of antibiotics to unnecessary lab tests and scans, how can we educate patients and staff to accept that less may be better? Overmedicalisation is often seen as a problem that can be solved by educating patients and staff to accept that less may be better.
In this episode, host Tara Lamont and guests Heather Cassie, Claire Hastings and Jane O’Hara explore some of the reasons why this can be hard for staff and systems in healthcare today.
•How do we know what to reduce or add into the system?
•Where are the trade-offs between policies, processes and patient expectations?
•The importance of trust in staff-patient relationships and how health literacy affects patient expectations
