So you want to improve your relationship with your
most vulnerable and loyal patients. You know that mom's make the family's
healthcare decisions, and you want to make sure they leave happy.
Where do I start?:
- Review the Materials:
- Get energized about Child Centered Care
- Find the early adopters in leadership positions, show them
the Child Centered Care Leaders PowerPoint, and sell them on the concept of
meeting the needs of the children and the parents who have entrusted their
care to your institution.
- Find child-like staff who already understand these
principles, and enlist them to take a course
- Schedule a 1 1/2 to 2 hour workshop for the staff who are
interested. Ask leadership to kick off the workshop for you.
(Leadership counts...)
- Download our Child
Centered Care for Medical and Support Staff, download and print the Child
Centered Care Playbook if you so desire, and download, print, and
laminate the Children's Team ID's for the
staff who are attending.
- Hold the workshop, and train the staff on how to practice
and speak "Childish". Ask them to assess the workshop with
our Assessment Tool and learn
from this experience.
- Use your contacts in various departments and see what
others are interested in this training
- Watch the snowball begin to roll down the hill
- Hold sessions regularly for new staff, and as refresher
courses.
- Contact us at info@childcenteredcare.org
and give us feedback on how we can improve this package for others.
Like we said - it doesn't cost money, it costs much
more.... Are you willing to help make the medical experiences of
children more child friendly?
