Unified Pharma is an educational resource and health-focused organization that wants to help reduce unnecessary hospital readmissions.
While it’s understandable that patients panic and want to return to a hospital to get the best care, the facts show that most readmissions could be prevented with better follow up care, more health education, and more in the way of healthcare reform.
Many people don’t realize that when a patient returns to a hospital prematurely, they put themselves at risk of further contagions, while also providing more work for nurses and doctors who already have a full schedule, and must now push appointments back further down the line. This creates months of waiting for all patients, which is no help to anyone.
Help support healthcare reform so that all patients can get the best care – and not have to be readmitted because of someone’s mistake?
Unified Pharma is not just pro-medical staff or pro-patient in perspective. We want to help both sides and understand the patient’s point of view. Nobody wants to go back to see a doctor or nurse because it’s a stressful experience – and risky, given the modern risk of contagions.
But patients often have to be readmitted mainly because they did not receive proper follow up care, or were not given advice on how to address their recovery process. This puts more responsibility on healthcare education and providing clear instruction on what to do next and why.
Patients would love to avoid readmission if possible and recover in the privacy of their own beds. If our educational articles and guides can help hospitals and patients to better understand medical communication, then we can work together to prevent unnecessary readmissions that complicate everyone’s life.
