A Reminder of a Healthcare Professional’s WHY

I loved this audio version of I’m Here! For it to be read by Marcus, to hear and feel some of the emotions he experienced as that 18 year old patient, is remarkable and truly special.

Thank you, Marcus, for sharing your story and for helping healthcare providers everywhere better understand the patient perspective and that everyone has a backstory!

A must read for any healthcare provider. This should be a mandatory read in all nursing/medical school programs.

Marcus first hand experience as a patient provides a window into what matters most in patient care.
