Capturing Essence for Care: Stories to Transform Healthcare

Join Lisa Joworski, Therapeutic Recreation and Life Story Resource specialist, as she explores how sharing our personal narratives can reduce judgments and transform patient-centred care. This podcast bridges the gap between healthcare professionals, care partners, individuals with lived experiences, and storytellers through meaningful conversations about the power of personal stories.

Each episode features discussions with people who have found value through sharing their life stories with healthcare practitioners and others who incorporate personal history techniques into their practice. Drawing from over two decades of experience working with seniors and people living with dementia, Lisa demonstrates how being seen as a whole person—rather than just a patient—dramatically improves care outcomes and quality of life.

Discover diverse storytelling methods through video, writing, music, and other creative forms that help capture what truly matters in our lives. If you believe in the healing power of storytelling and compassionate care, "Capturing Essence for Care" is your community.
