Hosted by Sierra Tucson's director of applied neuroscience and outcomes, the discussion centers around how systematic data collection can revolutionize patient care from the initial screening to the end of treatment.
It's not about turning patients into numbers; it's about using data as a tool to better understand and address their unique needs. This method helps catch those who might otherwise slip through the cracks and reminds patients of their inherent resilience. You'll hear about the challenges and benefits of this shift, and how aggregating patient data can improve program fidelity and treatment outcomes.
