A conversation with Rosie Bartel

Nurturing the patient-physician partnership is the only way to heal healthcare.

Sharing her lived experience with openness and honesty is Rosie Bartel, a patient advocate and survivor of preventable medical error. Since contracting MRSA after a routine knee replacement surgery, Rosie has channelled a hugely difficult and prolonged healthcare experience into a mission for systemic change.

As she states, patient safety is a bipartisan issue, and we must ensure continued collaboration and communication between physicians, policymakers, executives and most importantly, patients themselves.

——

We spoke about Rosie's journey, why she believes patient advocacy is so important, the importance of breaking down silos that prevent communication, how patients can become their own advocates, and her solutions for developing relationships in healthcare that are rooted in trust.
