By: MaryAnne Sterling Featured On The Whole Care Network
  • Summary

  • Us vs Them Podcast is giving patients and caregivers (and those who support them) the opportunity to tell their stories and talk about how we transform healthcare… as we tackle tough topics that don’t get enough attention… from the perspective of those with lived experience. We will do deep dives into topics such as gender bias in healthcare, frozen shoulder, transitioning from pediatric to adult care, mental health, over-medicating our seniors, family caregivers as partners (not visitors) in healthcare, and more. Join us for compelling stories, smart analysis, and creative solutions.
