US vs THEM: Patients and Caregivers Confront Healthcare

By: MaryAnne Sterling Featured On The Whole Care Network
  • Summary

  • Us vs Them Podcast is giving patients and caregivers (and those who support them) the opportunity to tell their stories and talk about how we transform healthcare… as we tackle tough topics that don’t get enough attention… from the perspective of those with lived experience. We will do deep dives into topics such as gender bias in healthcare, frozen shoulder, transitioning from pediatric to adult care, mental health, over-medicating our seniors, family caregivers as partners (not visitors) in healthcare, and more. Join us for compelling stories, smart analysis, and creative solutions.

  • Pediatric Transition
    May 20 2024

    Join me for an eye-opening discussion with two phenomenal fathers of young adults with special needs, Jeff Cousins from Navigating Life’s Detours and Vik Sharma from tech startup MiraKare. Jeff and Vik spoke to me about the challenges they’ve faced getting appropriate healthcare for their kids as they have transitioned from pediatric to adult care in a healthcare system that is completely unprepared to provide this care. This is an amazing discussion and may impact someone you know.

  • Frozen Shoulder: What Every Woman Aged 50+ Needs To Know (Part 1)
    Aug 18 2023

    Join us for Episode 2 of Us vs Them: Patients and Caregivers Confront Healthcare, a no-ground-rules conversation about a condition you may not know about: Frozen Shoulder, featuring my friends Michele Houck of CircleOf and Theresa Wilbanks of Sustainable Caregiving (check out Theresa’s new book “Navigating the Caregiver River: A Journey to Sustainable Caregiving”). If you are a woman aged 50+, this is a discussion you don’t want to miss! Why? Because Michele, Theresa, and I all developed this condition when we hit menopause. Odds are... you may have it or know someone who does.
