Empowered #patientchat – How does an empowered patient approach prevention?

September 8, 2017 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm UTC+0

Empowered #patientchat - How does an empowered patient approach prevention?

You’re Invited! We hope you’ll join us for our next Empowered #patientchat discussion. We will be discussing prevention and how an empowered patient approaches making healthy decisions.

Staying healthy and living a long life starts with preventive healthcare. Preventive healthcare can help you avoid illness and detect problems before you notice any symptoms – helping you stay healthy. This may include immunizations, vaccines, physical evaluations, lab work, x-rays and medically appropriate health screenings. Let’s chat about preventive care and why it can benefit everyone.

 

Guiding our discussion will be the following Topic (T#:) Questions:

 

T1: Is prevention a misnomer? Should focus be on risk reduction?

T2: How do you identify your risks? Does knowing your risks help you make healthier choices?

T3: What are some challenges in getting regular screenings?

T4: Why do you think it often takes a serious illness before people take their health seriously?

T5: How do we keep this conversation going?

 

We hope to see you Friday, September 8th on Twitter (or tchat.io/rooms/patientchat) at 10:00 am Pacific / 1:00 pm Eastern. Be sure to include the hashtag #patientchat in all your responses!

I’ll be at the Empowered #patientchat on Fri 9/8 1pmET. Join me! Click To Tweet
