Description
Join us for a conversation on the healing effect of telling one's story and how stories can help humanize medical care.
Since 2013, writers from the VA's My Life, My Story project have asked more that 10,000 Veterans at VA hospitals around the United States to tell their life stories. With the Veteran's permission, those stories go into the Veteran's medical record so that VA health care providers can read them and get to know their patients better.
