We’re in this together: Care in a Crisis

Alda Center and Gold Foundation Webinar Part I

The world needs science, and effective health communication, more than it has during any time in recent history. During this webinar, experts from the Alda Center and the Gold Foundation discuss strategies for healthcare professionals to cope, to support each other, and to continue to provide the best possible care for their patients in these difficult times. The webinar draws from the Alda Method® and the Gold Foundation's Tell Me More® tool to empower healthcare professionals to communicate clearly and vividly in the midst of a crisis. Check out the full webinar series here

Key Takeaways from this Webinar:
  • What are phrases that define you in relationships? 
  • What defines you? 
  • What is an aspect of yourself that you are not proud of? 
  • What identity did you choose? 
  • What identity did you not choose? 
  • Your identity will shift day to day depending on what is going on in the world and your life. 
  • People are missing human connection as people isolate themselves. Humanism and connections are key in confronting these challenges. 
  • Humanism in healthcare is essential in establishing a connection within your team (healthcare professionals or patient/doctor/family/etc)

 

“Usually we are looking for some common ground. To connect with others is a deep human need. We like to look for common ground because it creates a ‘we’ rather than a ‘me and you’.”
