What leaders have to say about Meghan:
Meghan is an outstanding therapist who especially excels in interdisciplinary collaboration. She is a teammate anyone would be happy to have. She uses HCHB daily to illustrate the skilled care provided to her patients via her occupational therapy visits. She is adept at navigating the EMR to follow the documentation of the other disciplines involved in the patients’ cases and to illustrate the communication amongst disciplines. Her chart audits consistently demonstrate her competence with HCHB and the ability to use the functions of this platform to support the skill provided by a therapist and the patients’ need for clinical care. Meghan is a preceptor to new orientees to our organization and trains them in the use of HCHB.
What does being a Gold Standard Award honoree mean to you?
Being a gold standard award winner feels like such an honor. I try my hardest every day to provide quality care to my patients as well as make sure they feel safe and comfortable with me. It feels nice to be recognized for those actions.
What is a valuable lesson you’ve learned from working in your field?
The biggest thing I have learned from working in the field is no amount of knowledge and clinical reasoning can make up for a patient not trusting me. I work very hard to establish a good working relationship with my patients first especially as I am in their home.
What guidance or words of wisdom would you share with those who want to follow a similar path to yours?
Listen to your patients before educating at them or responding.
