Condemned to Die: Ask me how. Tell me why.

I am writing a White Paper (describes a report that states the social position of an organization) to add to the web site I am preparing. I need your help. I want you to respond to my questions so I can incorporate the responses into the paper. No names or any identifying information will be used for the White Paper. Thanks so much.

There are 10 questions. I really need your help so the White Paper will reflect more than just my opinion. Thanks so much. Please email answers to me at pamela@luvurbrain.net.

1: What steps should you take in searching out the best medical care?

2: Define the medical team you encountered and the explain the role each treatment specialist should take in helping with the recovery effort.

 3. How do you suggest preparing questions for the medical professionals who work with you in the treatment and recovery phase? Which questions are the most important to you?

 4. What is your role in monitoring the health care treatment of your loved one?

 5 What do you believe should be the family's role in participating in therapy? How soon should family involvement begin?

 6. How were the rules and regulations concerning treatment costs and duration explained to you? Did you know your options?

7. What do you think is the best way to establish a positive living environment for the patient and his or her family members during the hospitalization?

 8. What are the common stresses put upon a family during the recovery period? Which was the most difficult obstacle?
