Where Health Care Meets the Humanities

President’s Lecture Series Fall 2022

Co-sponsored with Harvard Pilgrim Health Care, a Point32Health company

As a health care provider, are you able to deliver human-centered care, or is it a distant memory? As a patient, do you feel you receive the kind of care that sees you as a person first, and then a patient? Is a trusting, empathetic, and caring patient-provider relationship even possible in today’s technologically advanced, rapidly changing health care system? In this webinar, you’ll hear what is being done—and what more can be done—to keep the human front and center in healthcare.
