Complimentary – Emergency departments face unique challenges in delivering exceptional patient experiences. Unlike inpatient settings where time allows for relationship-building, the ER operates in a high-pressure, fast-paced environment where communication gaps directly impact clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction. This webinar explores the fundamental obstacles to effective ER communication and presents practical, technology-enabled solutions that are transforming emergency care delivery.

Join Mark Hayworth, VP of Emergency Services at Medical City Plano, a HCA facility, as he shares his journey from bedside nurse to executive leader and the innovative approaches his team implemented to bridge communication gaps. Learn how leaders who understand both frontline realities and strategic priorities can help fundamentally shift patient behaviors from passive waiting to active participation in their care.
