"One of the most common barriers to care is the lack of patient or caregivers. Many times I have seen patients or their responsible party refuse care because they do not understand the treatment plan. I believe taking a little extra time to explain what care needs to be provided helps to alleviate anxiety for the patient/caregiver and allows the healthcare provider to complete their job effectively."

"I think that prioritizing what job needs to be done first and taking the time explain any treatment or procedure to the patient and/or caregiver will prevent delays as the plan of care is being implemented. Sometimes a simple bedside conversation can make things run much more smoothly."
