This episode features Dr. Lovely interviewing Dr. Julie Siemers, a patient safety consultant, educator and nurse. In this discussion, we talk about how individuals can advocate for themselves in hospital settings to avoid medical errors, which are a leading cause of death in the US.
Dr. Siemers, a registered nurse with extensive experience and the author of the book on hospital safety and advocacy, provides crucial insights and tools for patients and their loved ones. This discussion aims to empower listeners with the knowledge to navigate hospital stays more safely by understanding what questions to ask and what to look out for.
This episode addresses a universally important topic of patient safety. Many of this community find themselves facing hospital stays or caring for an aging parent or beloved elder while navigating the menopause experience. Dr. Siemers' expertise, gained from decades in nursing and patient safety, offers valuable guidance for anyone facing a hospital visit or anyone caring for someone with a chronic health issue.
