I've been so encouraged by the receptivity of healthcare professionals.
I think that it's about the approach, right?
So we don't go in anywhere and say, hey, you're doing it wrong.
We talk about how there are systemic barriers.
Patients are not getting their needs and clinicians are not getting their needs.
It's not the healthcare provider as villain, it's the healthcare system as villain.
And people are like, oh yeah, yeah.
Like that's the thing about the healthcare system.
The people in it, they know that it's not good.
So that's helpful.
And so then we go in and we talk about inclusion, right?
So everybody wants inclusion.
They just might not have any idea what it means.
It's the idea that how do you build environments where people with all types of brains can get their needs met?
It's not a set of practices that you do differently for, say, autistic people.
It's universal design.
How do you offer things in multiple different ways and give people freedom and choice to pick what works for them?
within the constraints of your environment.
And so something as simple as thinking through the workflow of a patient's journey through your, you know, your healthcare experience, are there any defaults?
Anytime there's a default, anyone else is going to be othered.
