When Caregivers and Patients Connect, Everybody Feels Better.
The
essence of healing is caring for the whole patient—body and mind. Moments of engagement between patients and
caregivers offer valuable opportunities for understanding
illness, calming anxiety and providing hope.
The Kenneth B.
Schwartz Center conducts pioneering programs to educate, train
and support caregivers in the art of compassionate health
care. It's basic medicine.
