Simple step makes a big difference in healthcare

The Public Health Agency (PHA) is today [Thursday 04 September] launching a simple but very important initiative to encourage health and social care staff to introduce themselves before delivering care. "Hello, my name is..." aims to bring about a small change that will make a big difference to patients and service users across Northern Ireland, as the human connection between the professional providing care and the person receiving it is vital in establishing a relationship and building trust.
