Johnathan Neal+FollowLoneliness Is Wrecking Chronic CareTurns out, loneliness isn’t just a bad mood—it’s actually making chronic illness way harder to manage. Over half of patients say feeling isolated keeps them from picking up meds or even seeing their doctor. The kicker? Most feel their healthcare team is too busy or distant to help. But when patients connect with others who get it, things improve big time. Peer support might be the missing link we’ve all been ignoring! #ChronicIllness #Loneliness #MentalHealth #Healthcare #PatientSupport #Health90Share
edwardspeter+FollowCancer Care Gets a Privacy Glow-UpJFK University Medical Center just opened infusion bays that let cancer patients choose between privacy and community—thanks to input from the nurses who know them best. Each bay has sliding doors for 'me time' or open hangs, plus space for loved ones and even video calls. It’s all about comfort, support, and making tough days a little brighter. Nurse-led design FTW! #CancerCare #PatientSupport #NurseLed #HealthcareInnovation00Share
Stephanie Snow+FollowWhy Are Rx Costs So Out of Control?Ever feel like you need a PhD just to afford your meds? Prescription prices are skyrocketing, and insurance hoops are making it worse—40% of scripts now cost $250+ per fill! Even though pharma companies pour billions into patient assistance, barely anyone gets help. Experts say we need tech-driven, seamless solutions (think: 1-click shopping, but for meds) and real teamwork across the healthcare system. Until then, patients are stuck paying the price—literally. #HealthcareCosts #PrescriptionDrugs #PatientSupport #Pharma #HealthTech #Health225Share
