University Hospital Galway today launched the #hellomynameis campaign. The aim of the campaign is to enhance compassionate care by reminding healthcare professionals to introduce themselves to patients in all healthcare interactions. And the main message is to promote high quality communication in order to treat patients with dignity and respect.
