On this episode of The Healthcare Plus Podcast, host Quint Studer is joined by special guest Carlton Ulmer. Carlton is a former healthcare leader, hospital CEO, and President with more than 26 years of experience in the industry. In January 2023, Carlton and Quint co-founded Build a Brain, Build a Life, Build a Community – a company that helps educate parents and caregivers about the crucial role they play in helping to develop a child’s brain and the importance of talk and interaction to fuel healthy brain development in the first three years of a child’s life.
In healthcare, we have a tendency to overcomplicate programs. Carlton shares that one of the things he loves about working in early brain development is the simplicity of it. 85% of a baby’s brain is being built in the first three years and words are the food it needs to develop. We have the opportunity in hospitals to provide educational resources to new mothers and fathers who happen to be the first teachers of their newborn and explain the role they play in brain development.
Tune in today to learn about the role you play in building brains and how you can offer resources within your own organization or community.
