Robin Youngson is an anesthesiologist in New Zealand. He is
an International leader in the compassionate healthcare movement and
founded
HEARTS
in HEALTHCARE
whichis
an inspirational community of health professionals, students, patient
advocates, health leaders, and many others who are champions for
compassionate care. "We believe bringing like-minded people together is
the first step to re-humanizing healthcare around the world".
Robin is author of
TIME TO CARE: How to love your
patients and your job. He says, "my passion is to restore the heart of
healthcare and to make caring and compassion the daily lived experience
and practice of all in healthcare. Health professionals need compassion
and caring in the workplace as much as patients - the rates of burnout,
emotional exhaustion and hopelessness are far too high."
