Clinical Communiqué Episode #13: Failure to hear concerns

Listen: Here

Welcome to Episode Thirteen of our podcast series. This features material from our September 2023 print edition of the Clinical Communiqué. This podcast presents the lessons to be learned by examining the failure to hear the concerns of those that should be at the centre of every health care interaction. We present two cases where the patient's families told the coroners that they had not been listened to by the nurses and doctors caring for their loved ones.
