How We Navigate Healthcare 

A winding road through woods

In a healthcare system driven by efficiency and high patient volumes, it can be challenging to receive personalized care and make informed decisions when caring for the elderly. Assumptive medicine, where medical professionals make decisions without fully understanding your goals and preferences, can lead to undesired outcomes. 

Assumptive medicine, although not malicious, can be dangerous. In a system where highly educated medical professionals are pressed for time, they may not have the opportunity to fully explain all the necessary information for making informed decisions and offering the best care for older adults. This approach often results in decisions that may not align with your true goal of care. By avoiding judgment and not allowing anyone to dictate your care without your consent, we empower you to take an active role in your healthcare decisions and ensure that your needs and preferences are met.

One of our key principles is proactive communication. By anticipating the thoughts and concerns of healthcare professionals, we can engage in discussions with them, ensuring that all aspects of your care are considered. We aim to provide you with the necessary information and support to make informed decisions about your health and healthcare management. 

Rather than waiting for critical events to occur, we take a proactive approach, discussing potential scenarios and exploring the best course of action together. This way, we can help you avoid irreversible situations and ensure that your healthcare aligns with your desired goals.

The healthcare system is designed to care for millions of people, often resulting in fragmented and impersonal care. In a healthcare system run on algorithms and designed to care for 300 million people, we focus on one – you.
