SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Vocera
Communications, Inc. (NYSE:VCRA), a recognized leader in clinical
communication and workflow solutions, today announced that its
Experience Innovation Network will host a complimentary
webinar about the importance of situational awareness as outlined in
the recent Clinical
Communication Deconstructed Report on Tuesday, Jan. 16, from 2-3
p.m. EST. Combining extensive research and personal interviews with
patients, families, industry leaders and frontline practitioners, the
report examines several care delivery models and provides innovative
solutions to promote effective clinical communication.
More than just listening and responding, communication is the foundation
of building sacred, trusted and healing relationships. Chris DeRienzo,
MD, MPP, chief quality officer at Mission Health in Asheville, N.C.,
will share his framework for communicating with patients and training
peers to communicate with empathy through the toughest circumstances –
from delivering a difficult diagnosis to navigating relationships with
colleagues. Liz Boehm, research director at Vocera, will facilitate the
webinar and share supportive findings from the research report.
“Human-centered clinical communication occurs when it enhances healing
through a compassionate, connected, accurate, timely, and effective
exchange of information. And when the intent between people achieves the
intended result – whether it is to enhance understanding, facilitate
teamwork, or ease suffering,” said Boehm.
