--Ayana Elizabeth Johnson & Katheraine K. Wilkinson, All That We Can Save
Healthcare is undergoing a powerful transformation. Our knowledge of health and illness has never been greater. Our technology to heal has never been more powerful. Our ability to help our patients has never been better. Yet despite the progress in medical science, we have also been losing sight of some of the qualities that define the healing professions. Sometimes it seems that we have forgotten why we joined our profession in the first place.
Heart and Soul of Healthcare is a group of health professionals from diverse disciplines in the Sacramento-Roseville area who believe that cultivating our humanistic qualities offers an antidote to the harms that we are experiencing. Burnout, isolation, disengagement, and overwhelm are the symptoms of an ill system that prioritizes productivity and technology over humanity.
We invite you to join us as we support each other in celebration of the heart and soul of medicine!
