- Ep 14 Advocating for Yourself in Heath Care
ABOUT THIS EPISODE:
If there is ever a time you need to advocate for yourself as a patient, it certainly is just after hearing the words, "You have cancer." Yet advocating for yourself may be easier said than done as chances are you may be scared, nervous, intimidated and possibly needing to make big decisions about things you know little about. So how do you best advocate for yourself in these situations? We are discussing just that in Episode 14 of The Recovery Room Podcast - “you need to drive you train, Advocating for Yourself in Health Care.” We are joined in this conversation by gynecological oncologist Dr. Elizabeth Dickson. We will define the important terms “informed consent” and “shared decision making” and then discuss tips and tools to help make you more comfortable in being a better self-advocate!
