Here's how you can balance strategic decision making with empathy and compassion as a patient advocate.
As a patient advocate, your role is to be the voice for patients, ensuring their needs and preferences are heard and addressed. This responsibility requires a delicate balance between making strategic decisions and demonstrating empathy and compassion. Strategic decision making involves considering long-term outcomes and the broader implications of actions, while empathy and compassion require understanding and responding to the emotional and personal experiences of patients. To successfully navigate this balance, you must develop skills in both areas and understand how they can complement each other to enhance patient care.
