Health care that is for us and by us

This is the moment we transform health care into #HumanCare.

A manifesto is defined as a declaration of one’s beliefs, opinions, motives, and intentions. It’s at the heart a living document that a person or an organization creates to declare the guiding principles they wish to live inside of.

This is our incomplete manifesto for a fuller expression of human care in health care

  • Choose to believe we can create opportunities for healing through empowerment. The placebo effect is real. Remember the magic of ourselves.

  • Imagine functional spaces, reflecting nature, that have the power to inspire and energize, while nurturing safety and care.

  • Reflect consistently on the quality of how we see ourselves and the system. That is how we practice wisely.

  • Bringing yourself fully to the moment is a radical act in itself. There will never be enough time. Make every moment mindful. Make every moment count.

  • Listen intently. Below the surface of illness, there are many layers of why. A deep and well honed process supports the best outcomes.

  • Gaze between the parts and the whole. Attending both, we honor their interconnectedness.

  • There is a season for everything. We honor all the cycles of life, not just the harvest.

  • Remind yourself every time you feel afraid: What would love do here?

  • Most human behavior is driven by short term needs and immediate battles. Leaders tackle difficult and significant problems. Pursue difficulty with zeal. Overcome it. Rest and Repeat.
