Cristal Skaling-Klopstock emphasises the importance of patients actively using their voice to influence healthcare decisions. She warns against taking healthcare options for granted and urges individuals to stay informed and vocalise their needs. Governments may make decisions that don't align with patients' wishes, so it's crucial for patients to be represented. She also highlights the role of organisations and charities in ensuring that patient voice is heard and encourages people to actively participate in this process rather than passively hoping that things will remain unchanged. #PatientAdvocacy #HealthcareRights #PatientVoice #HealthcareAwareness #SpeakUpForHealth #PatientChoice #HealthcareReform #StayInformed #VoiceForPatients #AdvocacyMatters

Just think about this for a moment 🤔 Hospitals experience almost 96% turnover of nursing staff every 5 years. But also look at these findings 👀 🏥 The average hospital lost $7.1 million in 2021 to higher turnover rates. 👩🏻⚕️The average hospital loses $5.2 to $9 million on RN turnover yearly. 📈The average turnover cost for a staff RN is $46,100, up more than 15 percent from the 2020 average. 📍The average hospital can save $262,300 per year for each percentage point it drops from its RN turnover rate. This affects you as the patient too. Your lives depend on the happiness of the nurses caring for you. Source: https://lnkd.in/gqg5Dk_f

Looking at the trends in #onlinefundraising, medical campaigns are the most common and most contributed towards. They attract the highest number of donors, followed by funeral campaigns. Interestingly, funeral campaigns generally raise more money compared to medical campaigns. What's your take on this trend? Have you ever supported any medical or funeral campaigns? Share your thoughts and experiences! 💙 #OnlineFundraising #GivingBack #communitysupport
