Human connection means fostering supportive relationships with patients, loved ones and one another. It forms the cornerstone of compassionate care and sense of belonging within the Yale New Haven Health community. As YNHHS celebrates Patient Experience Week, we invite employees to submit entries for the YNHHS essay contest. Write a one- to two-paragraph story about how you build a connection that exemplifies the patient experience – every person, every time. Submit your story to [email protected] by May 15. The winner will be announced May 31.
