Navigating a loved one’s hospitalization can feel like stepping into a foreign country where everyone speaks a different language. In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Adjoa Boateng-Evans of Duke Health and Duke University School of Medicine to discuss how we can bridge the gap between medical jargon and everyday "human" language.

Dr. Boateng-Evans shares her practical approach to empathetic medical communication and offers valuable insights on how family members and caregivers can become empowered, effective partners with hospital teams during a critical care stay.

In this episode, we cover:

  • Translating the Jargon: Why medical communication often feels cold or complex, and how doctors are working to bring human language back into care.
  • The Caregiver as a Partner: Practical ways caregivers can advocate for their loved ones without feeling overwhelmed or sidelined.
  • Effective Communication in the ICU/Hospital: Tips for asking the right questions during rounds and building trust with nurses and physicians.
  • Bridging the Gap: How clinicians and families can align on goals of care for better patient outcomes, even when a patient is in their last days.
