What helps staff members feel cared for and engaged? 💙

The people who provide care deserve to experience care, compassion, and connection themselves. When healthcare teams feel valued, supported, and empowered, they are better able to create meaningful experiences for the people they serve.

This week, we are celebrating The Staff Member and recognizing the caregivers, medical professionals, and support teams who bring compassion and humanity to healthcare every day. Together, we can foster cultures built on respect, recognition, well-being, and meaningful human connection.

This October, join Planetree and a global community committed to putting people at the center of care. https://ow.ly/bmKf50ZUJuK

PCC Month: The Patient — What Matters Most to You?

Sometimes, a single experience can change the way we see healthcare forever.

For Lisa Keitel, the birth of her son 29 years ago became the beginning of a lifelong commitment to Person-Centered Care.

As we prepare to celebrate PCC Month 2026, we invite you to read Lisa’s powerful story and reflect on a simple question:
