While everyone wants people to \u201cbe nice to others,\u201d empathy is often overlooked as a necessary skill for community paramedicine. In this section, we\u2019ll explain why empathy is vital for healthcare providers and community paramedicine. Just like assessment or procedural skills, empathy is a skill and trait that is needed and impactful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before we go too far, let\u2019s provide a working definition of empathy. According to Oxford Languages, empathy is \u201cthe ability to understand and share the feelings of another.\u201d While there are broader definitions, empathy is the ability to understand someone else\u2019s experiences (think about the phrase \u201cin their shoes\u201d when thinking about empathy).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Here\u2019s why empathy is so vital for community paramedicine:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Improves the patient assessment<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Reduce provider errors and improve patient experience<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>It helps reduce provider burnout<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>In the following sections, we\u2019ll try to look at these points in a nuanced way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Empathy Improves Patient Assessment (and subsequently, care)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Empathy directly improves patient assessment, which will then enhance care. What do we mean? How does this work? Consider a patient who is already distrusting of healthcare workers, or perhaps they are afraid of hospitals \u2013 will this person be likely to open up to a community paramedic who treats them like \u201cjust another patient?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When a community paramedicine team shows a patient empathy, that patient will be more likely to open up and share accurate details about their health and history. In turn, the provider will have a more comprehensive health picture and be able to develop an optimum treatment plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, since empathy builds trust, patients are often more likely to follow through with care plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Empathy Can Reduce Provider Errors and Improve Patient Experience<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Empathy also helps reduce provider errors. How? Many of us who have worked in healthcare know the feeling of having a loved one in the hospital. Perhaps it\u2019s a parent, child, or sibling. In these cases, we are often hyperaware of what the healthcare staff is doing. Why? Because we are highly empathetic to those that we love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the same way, when providers build more empathy for their patients, there is heightened attention to care, which will reduce the chance of provider error. In thinking about this, providers should realize that not only does this reduce the risks for the patient, but it also reduces the liability on themselves, as they will be less likely to make a medical error.<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to reducing provider errors, showing empathy to patients also improves their overall experience, raising their satisfaction with care and alleviating anxieties around healthcare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Empathy Can Help Reduce Provider Burnout<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, empathy can help reduce provider burnout. This is a little confusing, as many people think of this in reverse: burnout leads to a lack of empathy. In this case, both are true. Burnout and empathy are a two-way street. Burnout can lead to a lack of empathy, but a lack of empathy can also lead to faster burnout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When providers empathize with their patients, they are less likely to become frustrated and will likely find more satisfaction in their work. Reducing provider burnout and retaining community paramedics can help <a href=\"https:\/\/www.julota.com\/news\/5-ways-to-heal-a-stagnant-community-paramedic-program\/\">heal stagnant MIH-CP programs.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, let\u2019s talk about several ways community paramedicine programs and providers can work to have more empathy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Community Paramedicine Can Foster More Empathy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While empathy is undoubtedly a variable trait, with some people having more empathy than others, there\u2019s no doubt that people can work to improve their levels of empathy. We should note that this is a relatively complex issue, and all ideas here might not work for all people in all situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are four ways to have more empathy in community paramedicine:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Know where Empathy Can be Lacking<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Recognize and avoid common pitfalls (elder speak and \u201cbaby talk\u201d)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Look at the Person and Imagine They are Someone\u2019s Loved One<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Take Detailed Notes that Go Beyond a Checklist<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, we\u2019ll have a detailed look at these points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Improving Provider Empathy: Recognize Where Empathy is Lacking<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The first step to improving empathy is to admit that it may be lacking in some areas. Many of us quickly say, \u201cI have empathy,\u201d but it\u2019s important to be honest with ourselves. Do we have empathy for every patient? All the time? Do we treat everyone equally? The answers to these questions will differ for everyone. However, they are important to ask.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.paramedicpractice.com\/Features\/article\/empathy-in-paramedic-practice-an-overview\">Empathy studies<\/a> have indicated that many providers tend to show less empathy to patients who may be struggling with substance abuse or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.julota.com\/news\/evidence-based-approach-to-mental-health-crisis-response\/\">mental health issues.<\/a> However, there are certainly more areas where providers could be prejudiced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While a lot could be said here, the main point is this: everyone falls short in empathy at some time or another &#8211; how can we all improve? Even if we are among the most empathetic people on the planet, how can we improve? When providers think about it this way, it becomes less about saying: \u201cI\u2019m empathetic, and that person isn\u2019t,\u201d and more about asking: \u201chow can we all improve?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Improve Empathy by Avoiding Common Pitfalls Such as \u201cElderspeak\u201d and \u201cBabytalk\u201d<br><br><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We mentioned that recognizing where we lack empathy is a good starting point. The next place to improve empathy is to look at common pitfalls. One of these pitfalls is elder speak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/merrill.ku.edu\/elderspeak-it-helpful-or-just-baby-talk\">Elderspeak<\/a> is the phenomenon of providers talking to older adults with a \u201cbaby talk voice\u201d (regardless of the patient\u2019s cognitive abilities). While there are certainly times when a patient will need clarification or for a provider to speak slower, it\u2019s a mistake to apply this type of altered speech to all patients universally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Providers should ask this question: when I\u2019m an older adult (or any age for that matter), how would I want a doctor, nurse, or paramedic to speak to me? Would I want them to talk to me with a high-pitched, slowed-down, baby-talk voice? Or would I want them to treat me as an equal and speak to me with a voice of respect?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even making small changes, like eliminating elder speak from patient interactions, can improve provider empathy and raise patient confidence levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Place Yourself in Their Shoes (Imagine the Person is Someone\u2019s Loved One)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Another technique for improving empathy is to imagine the person is a loved one. While this can be difficult to imagine, everyone you treat is <em>somebody\u2019s loved one. <\/em>When community paramedicine teams think this way, they will have an easier time developing empathy for the people they treat daily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong> also consider using humanizing language when you can. Not only is this respectful to the patient, but it will help you foster more empathy. For example, instead of thinking of a person as a \u201cseizure patient,\u201d think of them as \u201ca person struggling with seizures.\u201d Also, when you can (and when appropriate, considering privacy, etc.), use the patient\u2019s first name when talking to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Take Detailed Notes Beyond Regular Vitals and Checklists<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Last, consider taking detailed notes about the patient. How does this help with empathy? Here\u2019s an example. Let\u2019s say you have a patient struggling with alcohol dependence. Instead of just recording numbers related to the patient\u2019s vital signs or blood alcohol levels, consider taking notes such as, \u201cThis man appears upset that he had to leave his family to come to the hospital.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Taking these notes about the person\u2019s well-being helps you think about them differently. Instead of looking at them as lab specimens, you look at them as a person \u2013fellow human beings with fears, wants, desires, and dreams, just like the rest of us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, let\u2019s go over a few final thoughts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion: Developing More Empathy in Community Paramedicine<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Developing empathy in a community paramedicine program can reduce medical errors, improve outcomes, and alleviate provider burnout. To foster more empathy, community paramedicine programs should consider where empathy may be lacking (even if they consider themselves mostly empathetic), avoid common pitfalls such as elder speak, and try to view the patient as someone\u2019s loved one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While empathy is a powerful force when caring for patients, it\u2019s also powerful when working with fellow healthcare providers. There\u2019s no doubt that tensions can flare up between providers at times. Empathy can help each department, clinic, or hospital unit understand the struggles of the other, leading to better collaboration and a more positive environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.julota.com\/schedule-demo\/\">Contact Julota<\/a> to learn how their integrated software tools can help improve your community paramedicine program by collecting more accurate data and forming strong partnerships.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At first glance, empathy may not seem like a critical component in healthcare \u2013 isn\u2019t \u201cgood care\u201d the top priority?
