What is PAGES

This narrative provides a foundation for the PAGES program. PAGES is an acronym for practice patience, accept the present, gather information, encourage, and self-care. Each part of the acronym represents advice that people can implement into their lives. The two primary examples focus on families of physical therapy patients in a hospital and advisors of students in a school. The PAGES program presents a new initiative as well as reflections on applying the information to a variety of settings.
