Top-scoring organizations for patient experience are often specialty hospitals. Why? Because their patients feel “they get me. They know what I need.”   

Your older patients affect a significant part of your CAHPS ratings. What if their patient experience included feeling understood, important and respected? When you decide to offer Respect and the Older Patient Experience for your team, you affirm that your older patients really matter.
