#101 - The Knowlege Exchange Podcast - Explaining Misconceptions & What is High Value Care. Rob's Guest Appearance

Rob is a guest on the Knowledge Exchange podcast talking about misconnections and what good quality care looks like He discusses the power of the words and language used by practitioners and explains why he is an advocate for clear and simple communication with patients. Practitioners need to understand where patients are coming from and acknowledge their beliefs working with them to support them in achieving their goals. Being a high-level communicator and sharing strengths is crucial for success for any practitioner who is working with patients KEY TAKEAWAYS MRIs are a valuable tool the challenges are in the reporting An MRI shows everything, they need to be explained carefully and used in conjunction with your medical history and consultation Posture is ingrained in our culture but can be misunderstood The problem isn’t the position you sit in it’s the movement you make Postural devices don’t help with posture Communication is key and we always want to communicate with patients in a clear and easily understood way A summary at the end of consultation can really help to make sure the patient leaves with the right information and understanding Acknowledge the patient's beliefs and work with them to change the narrative Building trust with the patient and understanding their goals and beliefs is crucial As healthcare professionals, we have a responsibility to make sure we are sharing correct and factual information We have the opportunity to educate and inform people, we are primarily patient-facing and want to put out clear simple information for people We want patients to know what to expect when they meet with their healthcare practitioner Having groups means we can understand more about what people are going through and is the opportunity to share and signpost potential support Passive care is when something is done to the patient and active care is something the patient does for themselves BEST MOMENTS ‘MRIs don’t cause back pain, it’s about the reporting ‘For patients, it’s their story’ ‘You have to meet patients where they are at and begin from there’ THE BACK PAIN PODCAST PROVIDER MAP - FINDING SOMEONE TO HELP YOU WITH YOUR BACK PAIN https://thebackpainpodcast.com/index.php/members-map/ VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast website The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link Our Rode Mixer https://amzn.to/3waU8bx Our Microphones https://amzn.to/3rzSZ9Z Second Microphone https://amzn.to/2ObKMeA XLR Cable https://amzn.to/3rBL8ZB Studio Headphones https://amzn.to/3u082LE Laptophttps://amzn.to/3dhfafT Our webcam https://amzn.to/31uUefQ RESOURCES FOR THIS EPISODE The Knowledge Exchange Podcast ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliott Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.
