How do we maintain compassion - for our patients and ourselves - while doing this challenging work, day after day?Systemic barriers and social determinants of health - not to mention ever-increasing demands on the care team - can make the most dedicated provider feel powerless and ineffective. As healthcare professionals, we’re committed to providing high quality care to all our patients. But the never-ending struggles of low-income patients can lead to burnout, compassion fatigue, and daydreams about fleeing to a nice little concierge practice.The Best Care for Those with the Least weaves memorable stories, research findings, and the voices of both medical providers and patients into an easy-to-read guide. Complex concepts are distilled into practical strategies you can start using in your very next patient encounter to increase your effectiveness with patients from lower socioeconomic status backgrounds.Explore insights and strategies to:Increase patient engagementImprove provider-patient communicationIdentify barriers to achieving positive health outcomesGenerate a positive mindset before each patient encounterFeel empowered, inspired, and see the difference you’re making in people’s livesIn addition to providing expert recommendations based on 25 years of experience, the author brings the unique perspective of someone who’s been there.
