Continuing its efforts to educate, inform and empower the people of Chicago, SAVE THE PATIENT, a not-for-profit patient-focused organization, is hosting its 25-minute live call-in show, "Community Health," on Chicago Access Network (CAN-TV) on Monday, March 23, at 6:00 PM, CDT, on Channel 21.

Monday's program will feature an enlightening discussion about the healing benefits of silence, with Anne LeClaire, author of "Listening Below the Noise." Viewers will find out how, in these uncertain times of financial upheaval, the practice of silence will benefit them and why health-care professionals are incorporating silence into their practices.

All the efforts of SAVE THE PATIENT promote positive and productive interactions between patients and medical professionals by encouraging individuals to know and implement their rights to ask questions, receive understandable answers, and explore medical options. "SAVE THE PATIENT's mission is to assist the public in becoming informed and, therefore, better health care consumers," noted President and Founder Lenore Janecek.

Viewers, who wish to join discussions can call-in to pose questions or share concerns.
