Who Is Patrice Sterling?

Patrice Sterling, BCPA, is a Board Certified Patient Advocate, healthcare communications professional, consultant, speaker, author, and caregiver leader who helps caregivers, healthcare organizations, nonprofits, and community partners move from good intentions to informed, care-centered action.
Her work is grounded in both professional expertise and more than two decades of lived experience navigating sickle cell disease alongside her son. This dual perspective gives Patrice a clear understanding of what families experience, what healthcare professionals and organizations are working to accomplish, and where communication, trust, and systems can break down.
As a healthcare communications and change management professional, Patrice has extensive experience in strategic communications, stakeholder engagement, program implementation, education, and event facilitation. She has coordinated cross-functional initiatives, developed communications and learning resources, supported organizational change, and helped diverse stakeholders move toward shared goals.

Patrice Sterling is a champion!Kate
Life’s challenges tend to arrive hand in hand with life’s champions. Patrice Sterling is a champion – for her son, for her family and, with the release of this book, for any person caring for a loved one contending with chronic disease... Over the course of a health journey defined by pain and unpredictable hospital visits, the challenges and wins live alongside each other: a harrowing diagnosis unlocks incredible opportunities; disappointing hospital visits were met with Patrice’s unparalleled patient advocacy — and health heroes; moments of insensitivity and great tenderness co-exist in a strong community of support.
