In this episode of Patient Advocacy Now, we sit down with Teri Frykenberg, a nationally recognized leader in patient advocacy and patient safety. With a background as an ICU nurse, a three-time author, a newspaper columnist, and a serial entrepreneur in the patient advocacy space, Teri brings a wealth of experience and insight into the evolving challenges of healthcare.
Teri shares her personal journey into patient advocacy, which began with a near-tragic medical emergency involving her own family. She explains how her frustration with hospital bureaucracy and mismanagement led her to leave nursing and start her own advocacy company, despite having no formal business background. She also addresses the growing demand for advocacy services through her training programs at NurseAdvocateEntrepreneur.com
If you're a nurse or doctor considering a shift into patient advocacy, or if you're interested in how to navigate the healthcare system more effectively, this episode is packed with invaluable insights from one of the foremost experts in the field.
