Unlike typical trainers or keynote speakers, Jake Poore spends most of his time in the trenches of healthcare, working side by side clinical and non-clinical care team members on every step of the patient experience. You may find him shadowing a nurse on a medical-surgical floor, observing pre-op surgery, secret shopping the waiting room of a doctor’s office or conducting patient focus groups.
As Founder and President of ILS, Jake knows what it takes to create and maintain a world-class service organization. He should… he spent nearly two decades at the Walt Disney World Company in Florida helping to recruit, hire, train and align their 65,000 employees toward one end in mind: creating memorable experiences for individuals, not transactions for the masses. In 1996, Jake helped launch the Disney Institute, the external training arm of Disney that sold its business secrets to the world. 80 percent of the people who attended the Institute were from healthcare…and Jake’s passion for helping to improve healthcare began. Just after September 11, 2001, Jake launched Integrated Loyalty Systems, a company on a mission to help elevate the human side of healthcare. Since then, Jake and his team of experts have been sharing the organizational blueprints needed to build world class patient experiences by helping them design and execute patient-driven cultural blueprints, define the companies’ patient experience strategy and map out and operationalize the ideal patient and employee experience.
ILS has successfully helped numerous healthcare organizations make cultural transformations including: Kaiser Permanente, Cigna Medical Group, Augusta Health, Dignity Health and their 75 medical practices, Baystate Health, Penn Medicine, Ochsner Health System, National Rehabilitation Hospital, and BJC Healthcare’s ProgressWest Hospital. Since 2009, Jake has been faculty for the American College for Healthcare Executives (ACHE) teaching a 2-day course sharing the blueprints for designing world-class cultures that drive exceptional patient experiences. In 2018, Mayo Clinic presented him with the prestigious Ozmun Award in Administrative Excellence.
Jake’s popular book, “99 Lessons Learned From Disney To Improve The Patient Experience” and its Companion Workbook provide real world strategies for implementing Disney’s world-class service into healthcare.

Coronavirus changed the patient experience forever. They say, "A good doctor treats the disease. A great doctor treats the patient who has the disease." During this time of uncertainty, we couldn't hug, shake hands or allow families to visit their loved ones, so we really had to get creative in coming up with solutions that still put safety first, but also allowed for the human connection - tailored to each person's needs - for both patients and caregivers. From the explosion of virtual appointments to digital outreach and new protocols - everything in healthcare has shifted in the age of COVID-19. The silver lining is we finally brought healthcare into the 21st century. And there is now, more than ever, enormous potential to extend the care beyond the walls of the hospital so patients feel they are continued to be cared for... by integrating digital and human touches that build loyalty and earn us the right to be your trusted healthcare partner. For caregivers, COVID-19 taught us that taking care of the caregivers is as important as taking care of the patients. Go with Jake as he explores specific tools that arm and empower every care team member to deliver on the organization's promise, especially during a crisis. ...less

What if we ran Disney the way we run our hospitals? Would it still be called "the happiest place on earth?" Would you know how much anything costs or how long the wait would be?
