Patients with better care experiences have better health outcomes. In addition, staff and clinics thrive when the patients they treat experience high degrees of satisfaction. Phone Etiquette is part of a series of Patient Experience "Booster Shots" designed to provide health care workers with the tactical skills they need to navigate day-to day patient interactions, from the mundane (but still impactful) to the challenging.
