CJ offers a free health session to local community and retirement centers with guidelines on how to become an excellent patient advocate for oneself or a loved one. The basic challenge: no one has ever been taught how to interact with medical professionals or how to navigate our increasingly complex health care system. CJ helps individuals with straightforward advice on how to get the most out of a doctor’s appointment, how to stay safe in the hospital, to avoid misdiagnosis and more. In a short presentation followed by a Q&A discussion, audience members will walk away with more knowledge on:
• Becoming an Engaged Patient
• Communicating and Partnering with their Doctor
• When Advocacy is called for
• Safe Hospital Stays
• The Risks of Overtreatment and of Undertreatment
• When to consult a Professional Advocate
• How to Find and Work with an Advocate
