Leading the OB hospitalist profession at industry event

OBHG’s Dr. Nicolai Hinds writes about the medical illiteracy epidemic
OBHG’s Dr. Nicolai Hinds writes about the medical illiteracy epidemic in Kevin MD. He offers the following advice to physicians:
“While it’s important to explain the diagnosis and treatment options to our patients, it’s equally, if not more important for us to ensure that they understand what we’re saying to them. Be it asking for confirmation, gaining trust to help them know it’s OK to ask questions, or making ourselves vulnerable to help them feel safe, hospital-based physicians should call on our emotional intuition on health literacy to ensure that the excellent care we are delivering in the hospital continues to have good effect outside of the hospital as well, when that patient goes home.”
