Full Description

About The Patient Revolution The Patient Revolution is a small non-profit organization with a big vision. We are the backbone of a global movement that inspires, equips and empowers patients, clinicians, caregivers, educators, and others to reject the industrialization of healthcare as acceptable, and instead work collaboratively as change agents to create the conditions that foster healthcare that is more careful and kind. ● We think that the current state of healthcare is financially and humanly unsustainable. ● We advocate for a radical change not incremental improvement. ● We reject profit, productivity, and process as appropriate drivers of care. ● We believe that all healthcare is local. ● We depend on our global community of more than 3,000 care activists who use their professional and personal influence to engage their own communities in a collective vision for careful and kind care for all.
