Whole Person Health Consulting
Expertise in Whole Person Care strategy and implementation.
Certified NY Women Business Enterprise (WBE)
Whole Person Care is a person-driven, relationship-based approach that considers multiple factors that influence health and healing with the goal of achieving equitable health outcomes. Each health journey begins by asking “what matters?” as a way to center the health care discussion on personal values and goals.
Why?
The National Academies of Science, Engineering and Medicine’s (NASEM) 2021 report Implementing High Quality Primary Care: Rebuilding the Foundation of Health Care defined high quality primary care as being “integrated; whole-person health” and “comprehensive person-centered, relationship-based care that considers the needs and preferences of individuals, families, and communities.” NASEM’s 2023 report Achieving Whole Health: A New Approach for Veterans and the Nation further promotes whole person care and provides the example of VA’s Whole Health as a model to spread and scale across VA systems and more broadly across US health systems.
