Indeed
I work to the principle that we are there to mutually benefit the
employee and employer, as improved performance is usually the result
of helping an individual to manage their health more effectively.
Isn't patient advocacy all about making sure they know their health
choices and empowering them to make decisions?
We also help by alleviating factors that are contributing to health
problems through practical management advice.
I don't see that as management's whipping boy at all!
