Notes de l'éditeur

  1. Interactive relationships are those which involve the patient and/or someone else contributing to the Shouldice Experience. The Shouldice Experience is the chosen solution in this case.
  2. This presentation will provide a glimpse at the Shouldice model of health care delivery and a look at some of the relationships that facilitate the delivery of the Shouldice Experience.
  3. The Hospital is managed largely on the basis of common sense. There is an underlying philosophy which states that the patient’s welfare is the responsibility of the staff of the hospital and all decisions should be made on a daily basis with this philosophy in mind. When decisions are made with the best interests of the patients and employees we find that the long term results are also in the best interests of the business.

  6. The success of Shouldice Hospital is dependent upon our ability to repeatedly perform tasks without significant variation. The model is such that the relationship between steps in the process of service delivery as well as the steps themselves, are so well ingrained and respected that they seldom generate challenge from those performing the tasks. All other relationships stem from this, forming the DNA in the Shouldice Experience.
  7. In defining the Shouldice Experience the perception of the patient or customer is where the true definition lies. To some, at first, it is simply a surgical intervention. Then throughout the experience a manifestation of emotional and physical sensations occur in an organized fashion, orchestrated by experienced people, in a environment which is clearly designed to handle their specific needs. Confidence now becomes part of the patients attitude. As a result they relax and begin to develop relationships with other patients and a bonding occurs. They all have the same concerns. They see and feel the healing process and share it with each other encouragingly. Ultimately the experience delivers a strengthening of body and mind.

  11. There are many classifications of relationships. I have selected a few for discussion. In this slide I’m taking a look at the string of emotional relationships that the patient goes through and how they become part of the marketing process. The emotional relationship touches the patient deeply and personally and, I believe lastingly. First there is the surprise or shock upon realizing that something is wrong. Second there is fear when the mind plays games with us and the pessimist in us comes out. Third there is anxiety which comes about once the patient accepts that there is actually something wrong. This step involves figuring out what to do, if in fact there is something which can be done, to try to solve the problem. Then there is hope followed by resolve. Then relief is felt when confidence that life will continue occurs. At this point the process jumps back a bit to fear and anxiety again because of the surgical aspect of treatment. In the end if we have done our job gratitude and loyalty will prevail.
  12. The physical relationship referred to in this slide is the physical feeling the patient goes through. I call this the real motivator. It requires a change from what the patient knows as comfort. Comfort is bliss. Then pain enters the scene causing unrest, confusion and discomfort. The patient is suddenly very motivated to do something. Anything to get rid of the pain. Once the pain is dealt with there is a sense of relief, a calm reflective state of mind , thankfulness if there was assistance from someone else. This too, is motivating and akin to rejuvenation. The patient passes on a good word.

  14. The invisible relationship is the one that happens behind the scene. The patient may not be aware of its existence or importance, but they often have a direct bearing on the flavour of the visible relationships. They are the fuel that the model needs to deliver its service. Once in place they facilitate the development of the visible relationships. Without them the engine will not run. With them the marketing and business benefits achieved through the visible relationships are possible.
  15. In health care it is usually a person who is perceived to deliver the final solution. The Doctor or nurse for example. But the patient is aware of other people who contributed to the final solution to their problem through the activities they become involved in during the overall experience. Each of these people can contribute or deter from the quality of the experience which will ultimately influence the satisfaction level felt by the patient. In the visible relationship the patient is aware of these contributions, through attitudes and efforts demonstrated in activity and behavior.
  16. Hidden relationships are those which the patient sees but is not aware of as being part of the marketing objective or process. Friend or relative - a trusted person who has no reason to tell anything but the honest truth and so can become more powerful than any advertising program on an individual basis. Patient - helps to create the confidence before, during and after the experience. Helps to build courage to recover and delivers reassurance when uncertainty creeps in. Patient to patient relationships can provide the most empathetic therapy and thus are tremendously effective in delivering a confidence in the healing process. Patient to staff relationships benefit both sides of the transaction. A confident staff member instills confidence in the patient and the patient rewards the staff in turn by praising their efforts. And passing on the good word. It becomes a perpetual circle of positive efforts. The patient and the staff member thus reinforce their belief that they are part of something wonderful and feel good about passing the word.
  17. In examining the chain of relationships involved in the Shouldice Experience it becomes apparent that the patient/provider relationship builds or diminishes in strength on the backs of the relationships that precede it and follow it. As the relationship begins it is very much dependent on what we do and have done to support it. As it further develops it is reinforced by what we do in visible relationships and by what transpires in hidden relationships. Once the relationship has matured beyond the critical care, or high intensity stage, at the hospital, it becomes less dependent on what we do and more dependent upon what the patient himself does. If we have done our job well at every stage along the way then the patient feels positive enough to share his experience and promote our service. Once he has done this he has taken a personal stand. He has done something he firmly believes is good, for another person and becomes an “apostle”.

  20. Once the relationship has matured, it must be maintained or it can wither. Shouldice has an annual follow-up program which insures that each patient is contacted every year after there operation for the rest of their life. This is of course is dependent upon the patient continuing to inform us of address changes. Currently the list includes approximately 130,000 patients, world wide. The follow-up permits us to build an extensive database if medical information which in turn helps us to improve our quality of service. This was originally and remains the core purpose of the program. Secondarily it provides us with an annual opportunity to touch the patient and rekindle the relationship with a news letter. It includes patients in a project that provides information which will help other patients thus reinforcing the importance of their part in the relationship. Follow-up also reinforces the patients confidence in the service we provided and at the same time, through his positive return comments, reinforces the confidence our staff have in their work and efforts to provide a top quality service.
  21. The extent of the follow-up program is shown in this slide.
