Why share your healthcare story?

Update from Care Opinion Canada

Posted by on

 

When I heard of Care Opinion, one of my first thoughts was” Where was this over a decade ago when my family and I had stories to share?” From the EMS crew who did all they could to bring my mother with some laughter despite her pain, to the hospital staff who had a tough job but still found time for a smile, a supportive word, and  a moment to let us cry — not to mention the amazing care our family doctor and clinic team provided. Letting all these people along the journey hear our voices would have gone a long way to support our experience, as well as that of many others.  


Today, Care Opinion provides patients and their families with a place to share their health journey.  Every story is important, but the more current the story, the stronger the impact.  


When you share not only the positive experiences but also what could be better, you help create a community of readers who are currently experiencing or have experienced something similar. By acknowledging that they are not alone in the health care journey, we can come together to make a difference. A community of health care providers may also read your story — some may recognize the difference they’ve made, while others may learn how to improve the patient experience. 


The team at Care Opinion works hard to ensure providers are notified when a conversation has been started through any story shared. 


Submit your story via the Tell Your Story link on the Care Opinion Website, or you can call us Toll Free at 1-844-215-5511.


One voice is all it takes to start a conversation.
