Your Healthcare - Be Involved

One of the keys to getting the best healthcare is to stay an active member of your healthcare team. Here are five suggestions to help guide you.

1. Be involved in your healthcare. Speak up if you have questions or concerns about your care.
2. Tell a member of your healthcare team about your past illnesses and your current health condition.
3. Bring all of your medicines with you when you go to the hospital or to a medical appointment.
4. Tell a member of your healthcare team if you have ever had an allergic or bad reaction to any medicine or food.
5. Make sure you know what to do when you go home from the hospital or from your medical appointment.

Speak Up!

To help prevent healthcare errors, patients are urged to:

Speak up if you have questions or concerns and if you don't understand, ask again. It's your body and you have a right to know.

Pay attention to the care you are receiving. Make sure you're getting the right treatments and medications by the right healthcare professionals. Don't assume anything.

Educate yourself about your diagnosis, the medical tests you are undergoing, and your treatment.

Ask a trusted family member or friend to be your advocate.

Know what medications you take and why you take them. Medication errors are the most common healthcare mistakes.

Use our website to learn more about your respected professionals, state-of-the-art technology and cutting-edge services.

Particpate in all decisions about your treatment. You are the centre of the healthcare team.
