In 2013, Dr. Kate Granger initiated a campaign advocating for healthcare professionals to introduce themselves to patients. While this may appear straightforward, and I've encountered the sentiment that it's an oversimplification or already standard practice, my personal experience suggests otherwise. Approximately one year ago, I was admitted to a local hospital due to acute cholecystitis. During my hospitalization, I observed the same phenomenon that Dr. Kate Granger highlighted. The patient experience in a hospital setting can be quite distinct from that of a healthcare provider. Many healthcare professionals were diligently performing their duties, and doing so effectively, yet often omitted introductions or explanations of their actions. Therefore, the message conveyed in the campaign initiated by Dr. Kate Granger should be reinforced. hellomynameis.org.uk/
