Revolutionizing Patient Care with 'Hospitable Healthcare'
In this exciting episode of Digital Health Talks, we're thrilled to host healthcare and hospitality expert, Dr. Peter C. Yesawich, as they unveil the secrets of their forthcoming book, "Hospitable Healthcare: Just What the Patient Ordered!" (Indigo River Publishing, September 5, 2023).
Join us as we explore how healthcare experiences can be transformed by borrowing principles from the hospitality industry. Most of us can attest to the stark contrast between our interactions with hospitals and those with hotels, resorts, and restaurants.
