Conference |"Relational Health: an emerging challenge"


Católica Medical School of the Universidade Católica hosts the conference promoted by the Relational Lab: "Relational Health: an emerging challenge", on January 18th. 

The Relationship constitutes the foundation of the act of caring, which goes beyond the provision of care based on a unilateral perspective of the caregiver and translates into a two-way practice, centered on the person cared for.

This co-authorship in the construction of care presupposes an effective, efficient, and lasting connection between the different actors that aims to achieve greater effectiveness and efficiency in healthcare and, simultaneously, an adequate level of well-being for all parties involved in this process.

This event aims to promote a moment of reflection and sharing about the challenges and opportunities of Relational Health.
