Hope-Filled Healthcare for Mental Illness, by Robert W. Engstrom, is a clarion call for respectful, compassionate interdisciplinary whole-person care for those suffering from mental illness. Even though the spiritual may seem immeasurable, the author convincingly argues that the compassionate care of an interdisciplinary team, including spiritual support, is essential to the long-term effectiveness of treatment provided to the mentally ill. All caregivers who have contact with the mentally ill, whether in a clinical or non-clinical setting, and whether they are trained psychiatric professionals or not, will find this book to be an indispensable look into the world of people with mental illness and how to help them. The resources and patient questionnaires included will help you take whole-person care for the mentally ill to the next level.

The Patient Experience, written by Jay Perez, offers simple solutions that everyone can do to create an exceptional patient experience. Hospitals are so clinically oriented they often overlook the emotional and relational aspects of patient care, which is how many patients judge their experience. When caregivers let patients know who they are, what they do, and why they care it creates a great sense of hope, trust, and belonging.

Building Bridges: A Guide to Optimizing Physician-Hospital Relationships, written by Dr. Ted Hamilton. In these pages you will find help not only in relating more effectively to physicians, but in developing initiatives that will build healthier relationships between hospitals and medical staff that will ultimately improve patient care. A valuable publication for leadership of mission-focused health care organizations and their physician partners.

Inside the Mind of a Physician, written by Dr. Herdley Paolini, does a great service by opening the inner world of physicians and helping us understand them, how to relate to them, and how to support them in their critical role in health care. Her insights will be of great value to everyone from hospital administrators and clinical staff, to insurance providers, government agencies, and anyone who interacts with physicians.

Holding on to What is Sacred, written by Dr. Randy Haffner, lays out a persuasive vision for how organizations can stay focused on their true values. The most intriguing aspect of the monograph is Dr. Haffner’s concept of Confessional Identity. It seeks the spiritual heart of an organization’s reason for being. Why? Because so much is at stake. Your employees need to know why you exist and why their efforts matter. Your customers need to know why you really care. Your leaders need to embrace your core convictions whole-heartedly or they will lose direction.
