In the current healthcare crisis, is it possible to rethink the way we do things?

Australian healthcare systems are stretched and cracking. There are never-ending reports of unacceptable delays, a lack of resources, poor culture, and skyrocketing burnout rates. The problems are overwhelming and appear insurmountable.

From Hurting to Healing takes you inside the often-closed doors of hospitals, healthcare, and medical culture into an environment where practices that have worked brilliantly in the past are now breaking down. 

Dr Simon Craig, an experienced medical leader, offers insights, initiatives, and inspiration to try and repair the damaged and damaging healthcare systems that currently exist. This moving study reveals that our crumbling healthcare institutions are failing in what should be at the heart of healthcare: caring for each other.

Dr Craig outlines his vision of a new way; A kinder and more humanistic approach that can help transform the devastation that exists in health today. 

From Hurting to Healing reveals the extent of the distress, imagines an alternative future, and delivers to healthcare leaders a guidebook to begin recreating a part of society that is vital to us all.
