"What is homeopathy? I think a lot of people confuse it with home remedies. And it's not necessarily home remedies. It is, not garlic and using turmeric and herbs. Rather, it's its own subset of medicine. It's an energetic medicine. So everything is ultra diluted in homeopathy. So they do take a mother tincture, or a natural substance, and will dilute that to the point where it's only the energy left of that substance. So we are talking about only the energy, and the way that it works is these ultra dilutions are going to help us to heal the body.”  ~Lauren Briggs BSN, RN, HWNC-BC, HN-BCAh-Ha MomentsYou can redefine nursing on your own terms.

You have to have a keen awareness of not necessarily. Everything memorized, right? But a keen awareness of your level of awareness of those and your need to seek out more resources, or you need to confirm information you know, and then all the clinical sciences, all the laboratory values, all the imaging, all the pieces like that.” 26:14 “So now we're in the perfecting phase one phase. And so demand is one of the categories and need is one of the categories. Demand is how many PTs will. Want to sit for specialization and the turnaround time and all that…The need piece is like. Why do you need PTs to work function at this level? Is someone else taking care of it?” Rapid Responses:   Now you've lived in Chicago your whole life, but if you weren't in the city, where would you go for fun?   “Well, I live in the burbs. I work in the city. That's been 99% of my experience. I'm never gonna live more than a half a tank of gas from Mount Prospect, Illinois. That's, and where would I go for fun? I totally love being in my garden. I was picked, I picked about 40 things outta my garden, brought 'em to work today. I, yeah, fun. Fun is like where my family is. My dogs are all that kind of thing.” You know you work in acute care when… “ You know you're working at acute care when it's.

Taking a constitutional remedy and an acute remedy is different because the first is helping the body repair a chronic state whereas the acute can be either a sudden acute case of tooth ache or an acute exacerbation of the chronic state.  Scanning happens when you take a good constitutional remedy and the body needs to find the files that are corrupted and fix them, just as a computer does when hit by a virus and the antivirus is plugged into the system.  The homeopathic remedy can create the programming errors and as a result the constitutional remedy can fix those chronic ‘programming errors' we have developed over time. All views presented are based on credible sources, but they are explained through the individual's viewpoint.  Doing your own research while integrating new information is always important when forming your own viewpoint.

Home health and hospice nurses often spend hours completing required paper-based forms and assessments to create personalized patient care plans and submissions for payments. This technology aims to streamline the workflow and collection of patient information while proactively monitoring patients and using AI-powered voice agents to improve patient engagement. Patrick explains, "So the way it works with your standard home health organization is that referral is received from a hospital, and most of the work from that point on takes place within any EMR. There are some other vendors that process places, but there is no getting around that form. It is required that you've got to complete every single step. There's really no difference no matter what state you're in or what jurisdiction; you might see slight variations between Medicare, Medicare Advantage, or Medicaid, but it's rather consistent across every single home agency." "Well, it's a mixture of the nurse and medical director. The nurses are often called startup care nurses. They go in the home and complete the work. It can take anywhere from two to three hours to be in the patient's home, and then once it's done, the response care goes to the medical director for sign-off. From there, there are a couple of extra steps to validate some of the information and coding associated with it. Then, it can be submitted to CMS for payment." "For that problem, we wanted to take those anywhere from one to four hours and get them down. Well, not because we're trying not to be thorough or rush onto the next patient or anything like that. It's just that there were better ways to do it, and the technology advances, especially in the AI space, have gotten to the point where you can be efficient, lower that timeframe, and still provide good quality care." #VividHealth #AIinHealthcare #HomeHealthAI #HomeHealth #HomeCare #Hospice #EmergingAI vividhealth.ai Download the transcript here

In this episode, Drs. Patrick Georgoff, Teddy Puzio, and Jason Brill are joined by special guest Dr. Pat Murphy, who helps us delve into the evolving field of acute care surgery (ACS), exploring its history, challenges, and the nuances of defining full-time employment in this demanding specialty. The discussion highlights the origins of ACS as a response to unmet emergency surgical needs and its three foundational pillars: trauma surgery, emergency general surgery, and surgical critical care, with additional roles like surgical rescue evolving over time. Dr. Murphy share insights into the workload, including night shifts, call schedules, and the toll on surgeons' health, emphasizing the importance of fair compensation, equitable shift distribution, and transparency in job expectations. The episode underscores the value ACS surgeons bring to hospitals, likening them to essential infrastructure like firefighters, with their impact often unrecognized in traditional productivity metrics like RVUs.    Dr. Murphy would like to thank the many collaborators who made this volume of work possible including the many acute care surgeons who have taken the time to participate in the research and their dedication to patient care and surgeon wellbeing Learning Objectives: 1)        Define and understand the evolution of acute care surgery as a surgical subspecialty, including its historical development, key components (trauma, surgical critical care, emergency general surgery, surgical rescue), and its unique role within the surgical landscape. 2)        Analyze the concept of "full-time equivalent" (FTE) for acute care surgeons, considering factors such as call schedules, shift length, service demands, and the impact of varying case volumes and intensities on workload. 3)        Discuss the challenges of defining and measuring the value of acute care surgeons, considering factors beyond traditional productivity metrics (e.g., RVUs) such as the impact of surgical rescue, patient safety, and the value of 24/7 availability in preventing adverse outcomes. 4)        Explore the importance of recognizing the unique demands and contributions of acute care surgeons, including the impact of high-stress environments, irregular schedules, and the importance of work-life balance and clinician well-being on long-term sustainability within the specialty.

Contributor: Aaron Lessen, MD Educational Pearls: Many patients present to the ED with elevated BP Many are referred from outpatient surgery centers or present after an elevated measurement at home Persistent questions on the best way to treat these patients The AHA published a scientific statement on the management of elevated BP in the acute care setting Hypertensive emergencies: SBP/DBP >180/110–120 mm Hg with evidence of new or worsening target-organ damage Includes aortic dissection or subarachnoid hemorrhage  Require aggressive treatment Asymptomatic markedly elevated inpatient BP: SBP/DBP >180/110–120 mm Hg without evidence of new or worsening target-organ damage AND asymptomatic elevated inpatient BP: SBP/DBP ≥130/80 mm Hg without evidence of new or worsening target-organ damage No benefits to urgent treatment in the ED, but there are harms to treating patients in this manner These patients do not require IV medications  Provide reassurance and instructions on following up with their PCP to manage their BP in the outpatient setting Removed the term “hypertensive urgency” References Bress AP, Anderson TS, Flack JM, et al.

In this episode of The ASHE Podcast, we explore how innovative approaches in infection prevention are reshaping healthcare practices. Guests Graham Snyder, Elise Martin, and Ashley Ayers join the discussion to discuss their study titled "Impact of Discontinuation of Contact Precautions on Surveillance- and Whole Genome Sequencing-Defined Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Healthcare-Associated Infections" and what it means for the future of infection control. The conversation explores the evolving role of contact precautions (CP) in managing MRSA transmission. The discontinuation of CP has sparked debates in infection prevention, with this study providing a fresh perspective through whole genome sequencing (WGS). Unlike traditional surveillance methods, WGS offers deeper insights into MRSA transmission dynamics, unveiling patterns that can redefine how we approach infection control in acute care settings. The study's findings revealed a surprising drop in MRSA healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) post-discontinuation of CP, raising questions about how to balance infection prevention with resource management and patient safety. By reducing reliance on CP, hospitals may gain advantages such as cost savings and fewer adverse effects for patients, without compromising care quality. Finally, the episode delves into challenges faced during the study and the need for further research to refine infection prevention strategies. Future efforts could focus on tailoring CP to specific risks and developing more precise methods for tracking and preventing MRSA transmission.

This is the final episode of The Peds NP Acute Care PNP Faculty series. The series was created and peer-reviewed by national leaders in acute care PNP education in collaboration to meet the needs of our current and future colleagues. In the push for competency-based education where faculty verify the skills of what a student can do, rather than their knowledge, our series focuses on the application of didactic content with a practical approach so that you can learn nuances of clinical skills before you reach the bedside.    As I come to an end of my time as a faculty member at the Catholic University of America and our Acute Care PNP Faculty series, I remember my graduation from Johns Hopkins. These terminal moments are likened to a graduation, and serve as a wonderful time for reflection. The episode recollects the student speaker commencement address given at my graduation, filled with vehicular metaphors and acknowledgements of failure. A common theme of “Onward” is woven throughout to remind listeners that, at whatever graduation you find yourself celebrating right now, be hopeful and excited at the good that is left to do in the world.    The Peds NP will return in 2025 from Duke University…   References: Carson, R.A.
