A True Partnership
“These findings suggest that patient experience scores,
such as those on the CAHPS survey, may be a reflection of
a transaction that is shaped by both the clinician and
the patient and is not just a measure of provider
performance.”

experience that are so important to patients and
families that healthcare providers should always
get them right.

Summary - our “Always Event”
Always Event: Identify “what matters most” to patients and ensure
patients’ values, needs, and preferences guide all care delivery
• Initial target population: All patients referred to Sutter Care at
Home (SCAH) Home Health and Hospice
• Future: expand practice across providers, settings, and care
continuum
• Work informed by:
• IOM definition of patient-centered care
• Evidence on patient engagement
• John P. Kotter’s works on leading transformational change
“The Right Thing to Do”:
Person-Centered Care
ALL health care providers should pursue six major aims:
1. Safe
2. Effective
3. Patient Centered
4. Timely
5. Efficient
6. Equitable
“Providing care that is
respectful of and responsive to
individual patient preferences,
needs and values and
ensuring patient values guide
all clinical decisions.”
“A New Health System for the 21st Century”
(IOM, 2001)
Patient Engagement is
“The Right Thing to Do”
Evidence reveals that patients who are
actively involved in their health and healthcare:
 Achieve better clinical
outcomes
 Have lower healthcare costs
 Are more satisfied with their
care experience

“We think our job is to ensure health and survival. But really it is
larger than that.
It is to enable well-being.
And well-being is about the reasons one wishes to be alive […]
those reasons matter all along the way.”

“Questions are at the very core of how we listen,

organizations; virtually everything we think and do is
determined by the questions we ask.”
Marilee Adams (as cited in Aubry, 2009)
A Good Place to Start…
What concerns you the most right now?
What would you like to have happen as a result of our
care?
How would you like to feel? What would you like to be
able to do again?
What is it that you hope for?
If in hospice, we might ask what would a good day look
like to you?
