The
book – Speak Up and Stay Alive – the patient advocate hospital survival
guide, written by Pat Rullo, host of the radio show - has rapidly become
an established and trusted resource. Pat has spoken to thousands of people since
the book’s debut in late January 2012 and her free events help communities to
increase health literacy and learn how to stay out of harm's way during any
healthcare encounter.
The format
and topic cause listeners to perk up and say OH! - It's interactive talk,
call-ins, interviews, lively discussions and
commentary - bringing healthcare hazards and perils to the forefront - what
they are, why and how they happen and what we as patients can do to avoid
them.
It's not about
pointing a finger at doctors, nurses, or hospitals - but rather exposes
and explores our defective healthcare system and offers practical
and often simple ways to stay safe - in an easy to follow yet
entertaining manner. Listeners tune in each week to gather and build their own
arsenal of hospital/healthcare safety tools and tips.
Sample
segments include: Hospital Hazard of the Week - Infection Protection Tips -
Share to Spare - Holistic Attention to Prevention - Hospital Safety Minute - Rants
and Raves - Voice of the People - News and Views - Personality Pointers - Advocacy in Action - Senior Moment and more ...
