<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Dr. Carly welcomes award-winning author, speaker, podcast host, and compassion-focused Physiotherapist Jennifer George for a conversation on an important topic–how to engage in a patient/provider relationship that is empowering and supportive. Jennifer talks about her book, <em>Communication is Care,</em> which she wrote after becoming a caregiver for her chronically ill father. She also talks about the experiences of witnessing his journey that shaped her professional practice. Jennifer walks us through several empowering strategies that patients can use to find a provider that fits their goals. She talks about how to advocate for yourself, a few of the ways providers can better work on communication, how family plays a role in care, and why we should never take hope off the table.</span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">Today's episode is sponsored by:</span></p> <p class="p2"><span class="s2">RAD Roller: <a href= "http://radroller.refr.cc/healinggroundmovemen"><span class= "s3">http://radroller.refr.cc/healinggroundmovemen</span></a></span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">J</span><span class="s4">oin the Movement!</span></p> <p class="p4"><span class="s5"><a href= "http://www.healinggroundmovement.com/">Healinggroundmovement.com</a></span></p> <p class="p4"><span class="s5"><a href= "https://www.instagram.com/healinggroundmovement/">Healing Ground Movement on Instagram</a></span></p> <p class="p4"><span class="s5"><a href= "https://www.facebook.com/hgmovementpod">Healing Ground Movement on Facebook</a></span></p> <p class="p4"><span class="s5"><a href= "https://www.pinterest.com/healinggroundmovement">Healing Ground Movement on Pinterest</a></span></p> <p class="p4"><span class="s5"><a href= "https://www.linkedin.com/company/healing-ground-movement">Healing Ground Movement on LinkedIn</a></span></p> <p class="p5"><span class="s5"><a href= "https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdylKBZv0zYsOvGSBlCqBzw">Healing Ground Movement on YouTube</a></span></p> <p class="p4"><span class="s1">Like what you learned? <a href= "https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=SEB6Q5HS8W4DY"><span class="s5"> Donate</span></a> to show your appreciation!</span></p> <p class="p4"><span class="s1">Mentioned in This Episode:</span></p> <p class="p7"><span class="s5"><a href= "https://www.amazon.com/Communication-Care-Empowering-Strategies-Patient/dp/1988645247%23:~:text=OK-,Communication%2520is%2520Care%253A%25209%2520Empowering%2520Strategies%2520to%2520Guide,Healing%2520Paperback%2520%25E2%2580%2593%2520June%252021%252C%25202019&text=Find%2520all%2520the%2520books%252C%2520read%2520about%2520the%2520author%252C%2520and%2520more."> Communication Is Care</a></span></p> <p class="p7"><span class="s5"><a href= "https://www.linkedin.com/in/jennifer-george-m-p-t-25656517/">Jennifer George LinkedIn</a></span></p> <p class="p7"><span class="s5"><a href= "https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/healthcare-provider-happy-hour-podcast/id1483407898"> Health Care Provider Happy Hour Podcast</a></span></p>
