Workshop: Navigate the Health Care System and Organize the Chaos

Knowledge is power, and information is very strong medicine.

Knowing how to acquire, understand, organize and appropriately act on medical information will lead to successfully taking charge of your health. You will maintain wellness longer, navigate acute illness more effectively, and negotiate chronic illness with much less stress if you are better prepared and armed with knowledge in advance. These organizational steps will make you a better health care consumer and result in fewer medical errors, shorter hospital stays, increased positive outcomes, and the motivation to seek preventive care and the skills to navigate the health care system.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

This Workshop will teach you how to:

✔️ Create a health care notebook
✔️ Compile a complete health history
✔️ Prepare for a successful medical appointment
✔️ Get ready for surgery
✔️ Research “what you’ve got" on the web
✔️ Become an informed health care consumer
✔️ Understand the most common medical errors and how to prevent them
✔️ Manage your medications
✔️ Learn how to choose an advocate
