Like Mother, Like Son: An HBPC Physician Shares His Personal Story

At the 2022 American Academy of Home Care Medicine (AAHCM) Annual Meeting last month, James Warda, HCCI’s Vice President of External Affairs and Business Development, presented Driving Practice Growth through Marketing, Media Relations, and Your Community. The course taught participants how to promote their practices to community stakeholders and media outlets through marketing.

“One of the exercises I do in my presentation is to ask the participants to tell their story to the person next to them and then ask the person what stood out to them,” Warda said. “More than an ice breaker, it’s an exercise that makes people think about what sets them apart as well as what they mean to their patients, and their caregivers and families.” After the session, Dr. Christopher Paredes of Northwell Health Physician Partners, shared his personal story with Warda of how he got involved with house calls and why serving the underserved is his personal mission.
