In this episode, I speak with Dr. Chayla Morris, PharmD, BCACP. Chayla is the Ambulatory Care Clinical Pharmacy Coordinator at Broadlawns Medical Center and Healthcare Consultant. we dive deep into the importance of patient-provider communication, the evolving role of pharmacists in healthcare teams, and the critical nature of prevention in modern healthcare. We explore real-world scenarios where patients are empowered to speak up about their concerns, ensuring they're not just passive recipients of care but active participants. From tackling medication hesitancy to the value of multidisciplinary care teams including health coaches and social workers, we unpack the complexities and the successes of current healthcare practices. Tune in to understand why letting patients know "you're part of a team with them" is so transformative and what's in store for the future of patient-centered care.
