The social safety net (or lack thereof) in the US for childcare, eldercare and long term care for disabled folks is another issue of great importance to women voters. What is left of this social safety net in the US was weakened further by the Covid 19 pandemic. Why the caregiving social safety net is important to women is because they take on the bulk of the caregiving duties in their families. Women make up the majority of the workforce that professionally provide care to those in need, and most of the women professional caregivers are women of color. This doesn't even include those who are house cleaners Advocating and organizing for strong care economy for families and its workers is the mission of organizer and strategist Jenn Stowe, Senior Advisor for Care in Action a sister organization to the Executive Director of the National Domestic Workers Alliance (NDWA), the leading national voice for dignity and fairness for domestic workers in the United States. In this episode, we talk about Jenn's personal journey into caregiving and how it became very political for her at an early age; why women of color make up so much of the caregiving workforce; the importance of having a strong network of support as a woman of color in the advocacy and political space where so few exist; showing up as you are in the work; and the challenges of paid and unpaid caregivers in the US; and how to get involved in building political power for a strong care economy for allTo learn more about Care in Action (and it's sister org NDWA) check out: https://careinaction.us/If you enjoyed the show and you want to join our community of other women of color who are embracing their voice head over to https://embracingyourvoicepod.com/Connect with Atima on:InstagramTwitterLinkedin
Today is a first for the podcast - we're using a case study to discuss how we can provide even better care to our haematology patients! From performing initial diagnostic tests to running a blood donation and transfusion and everything in between, we'll break it all down in this episode - so you can walk away and give confident care to your own haematology patients. ---
A rate critical to attain better care for patients, I'm gonna say, is enlightened leadership—maybe dyad leadership—at a clinical organization. I am saying this because without enlightened leaders, it'd be harder to build from the blueprint that Beau Raymond, MD, talks about today on the show. For a full transcript of this episode, click here. If you enjoy this podcast, be sure to subscribe to the free weekly newsletter to be a member of the Relentless Tribe. I'd say an enlightened leader is someone—and this is my definition, but it's a term that Tom Lee, MD, brought up first in an earlier episode (EP445)—an enlightened leader really cares about providing better patient care at an affordable price. They have a manifesto to that end, if you will. They also have studied, likely, and understand how change management works because every improvement requires change. They get the bit about people, processes, and technology being intertwined and what operational excellence means. Further, they are probably doing or considering many of the things that Robert Pearl, MD, talked about in episode 412. On the opposite end of the spectrum, there's a new term floating around called administrative harm. There's a study. Admin harm refers as much to what administrators—who I refuse to call leaders at this context because I'm talking about the not good administrators, so let's be clear—but I'd say administrative harm results from what the administrators choose not to do as much as what they choose to do. It is actually a thing to be an enlightened leader, especially in these profit-driven times. It's really tough, actually, and nothing anyone should take for granted. So, maybe this whole show is kind of a shout-out to the enlightened leaders out there. Thanks for doing what you do. Okay, so this said, and it needed to be said, let's talk blueprint for better care in the conversation that follows. Dr. Beau Raymond says, step 1, right out of the gate, set clear goals. Then step 2, engage others throughout the organization to together build the framework needed to achieve said goals. Engaging frontline folks and others is really the only way that any proposed framework will actually work in the real world. Listen to the shows with Karen Root (EP381) and Ashleigh Gunter (EP447) for just one proof point after another that what I say is based in fact. Step 3 of the blueprint to better outcomes that Beau Raymond, MD, talks about today is get your data. We talk a lot about plan sponsors and the getting of data, but same thing applies to clinical organizations. For clinical organizations, the getting of data means longitudinal data. The need for longitudinal data has come up in multiple shows, most recently the one with Dan Nardi (Spotlight Episode), and this is just one example of why getting the whole bag of data really matters. Dan said on that earlier show, it's often a thing that oncologists are unaware of how many of their patients are winding up in the ER for nausea after chemo, which, by the way, is the most common cause for readmission. And the reason for this is lots of patients travel to their oncologist but go to a local ER in a different health system. The show with Brendan Keeler (EP454) about the Particle v Epic lawsuit in general dustup over who gets the data is super relevant here. That's what I was thinking when I was talking with Dr. Raymond, and maybe it just popped in your head, too. Or just continuing this topic of the importance of longitudinal data, how many specialists, in almost any specialty, see a patient and then don't know what happened to that patient subsequently? Or even primary care in transactional models? So, step 3 here is get your data and also, as part of that, figure out how to make sure everybody understands the data and also understands that it is fair. Eric Gallagher (EP405), Dr. Raymond's dyad counterpart over at Ochsner, talked about this some in that episode. So did Kenny Cole, MD (EP431), interestingly, also from Ochsner. Amy Scanlan, MD (EP402) mentions it as well. Step 4 in the blueprint to measurably better outcomes that I discuss with Dr. Beau Raymond, data collection and data management probably need to be system-wide because … yeah, longitudinal and etc. But the “What are you gonna do now with the insights that you derived from the data?” is pretty local. The obstacles and enablers are going to be different depending on the geography. For example, an area with a large Vietnamese population and a big variation in colorectal screening rates as a priority, just logically, is gonna have a program that is in no way suited to roll out in an area with, say, a large Black or African American population with high hypertension rates. Priorities and programs are just different depending on the geography. So, step 4 here is, ask each region, based on the data, what fixes they're going to own. What will they take ownership on and commit to improving? What I thought was interesting in this interview is kind of the way that equity comes up between ethnic groups or between genders. In and of itself, obviously, striving for equity is critical. But also, if you're trying to improve quality across the board and you see disparities in care, figuring out what is going on with the group experiencing the worse outcomes is also just operational excellence. You don't want to be a solution looking around for a problem, after all; so, you need to figure out the actual problems for the actual people experiencing the problems to avoid that. Those are the only solutions that are actually gonna work. Step 5 is to learn from each other. Maybe not a whole program is flat-out transferable from one geography to another, but that doesn't mean that nothing is transferable either. As usual, it's about being thoughtful and nuanced and finding that productive middle. At Ochsner, they do these cool weekly primary care huddles to share learnings and goings-on that Dr. Raymond explains in the show that follows. Throughout all of these steps in this blueprint, there is obviously a need to align how the practice or system is getting paid for the time and capital expenditures, of course. And Dr. Raymond addresses this and interestingly says something similar to what Dr. Tom Lee (EP445) and Scott Conard, MD (EP391) have said on earlier shows: that a lot of times compensation for improving care, if you do it in an operationally excellent way, can be revenue positive for systems with a combination of both FFS (fee for service) and value-based reimbursement. Underline, however, the part about having an enlightened leader who cares about clinical quality for that to work out.

"Quality care requires trust and trust equals authenticity, empathy, logic, and follow through." "Entering the process with more confidence, more knowledge, and someone on your side is really important." "Birth is really hard on relationships. It transforms the relationships, but because there's so much opportunity for women to experience trauma and so much then falls on a dad who has no training in birth." "It's so overwhelming and so flustering." "You're not, no one's, no, no one's prepared to handle those high stakes, you know, mothers." "She's not mad at you." Summary In this episode, Jey and Susie discuss the importance of quality care and advocacy in childbirth. Susie shares her personal journey of experiencing a loss, medical complications, and an emergency C-section. She emphasizes the need for trust, authenticity, empathy, logic, and follow-through in healthcare providers. Susie also highlights the role of doulas and advocates in helping moms develop knowledge and confidence in the birthing process. The conversation emphasizes the importance of informed consent and the involvement of fathers in advocating for their partners. The conversation covers topics such as the overwhelming and intense nature of childbirth, the challenges faced by fathers during labor, the impact of childbirth on relationships, the importance of mental health support during pregnancy and postpartum, and the need for preventative care and support for parents. The conversation also touches on the disparities in access to care and resources for different socioeconomic groups. The guest, Suzzie Vehrs, shares her experiences as a doula and discusses the importance of being present, listening, and cultivating joy in the parenting journey. Takeaways Quality care in childbirth requires trust, authenticity, empathy, logic, and follow-through from healthcare providers. Doulas and advocates play a crucial role in helping moms develop knowledge and confidence in the birthing process. Informed consent is essential for empowering mothers and ensuring they have a voice in their healthcare decisions. Fathers should be involved in the birthing process and advocate for their partners' needs and preferences. There is a need for better communication and understanding between healthcare providers and patients in order to improve outcomes and experiences in childbirth. Childbirth can be overwhelming and intense, and it is important for both parents to be prepared and have coping mechanisms in place. The challenges faced by fathers during labor include feeling overwhelmed, not knowing how to support their partner, and dealing with high-stakes situations. Childbirth can have a significant impact on relationships, and it is important for couples to communicate and seek support during this time. Mental health support during pregnancy and postpartum is crucial for both mothers and fathers, and counseling and therapy can be beneficial in navigating the challenges of parenthood. There is a need for more preventative care and support for parents, especially in low-income communities where access to resources and care may be limited. Disparities in access to care and resources can contribute to the challenges faced by parents during pregnancy and postpartum. Being present, listening, and cultivating joy are important aspects of the parenting journey.

The Future Health Index (FHI) survey conducted by Philips, a global leader in health technology, explores the challenges within healthcare systems and the innovative solutions being used to address them. From the survey findings, the recently released ninth annual report - 'Better Care for More People', demonstrates the pressures of staffing shortages and burnout on clinicians, and their ability to deliver timely, high-quality care to patients. Jeff DiLullo, Chief Region Leader for Philips North America, joins this episode to discuss the findings and share how Philips is utilizing collaborative innovation to address the challenges. Jeff highlights the investments that healthcare leaders are making to help ease the burden on staff, such as automation and artificial intelligence, and those that are having an impact on increasing access and health equity such as virtual care. Technology adoption is no longer a choice, but an imperative that leaders like Jeff are working with the community to bring solutions to where they are needed most. From AI to telehealth and virtual care, this conversation is a calling card to those who want to work together to foster innovation. Listen in for some wonderful takeaways from Jeff, and be sure to check out the Future Health Index 2024 Report so you can be informed and inspired.
A recent study showed some surprising statistics when it comes to female vs male physician performance, mortality, readmission rates, and surgical outcomes. What was even more surprising is both males and females may benefit more from having a female physician. Does this mean you should immediately dump your male physician? There's many factors to consider which we will dive into as well. Topics include: - Better Care From Female Physicians? - Mortality and Readmission Rates - Male vs Female Physician's and Bedside Manner - Surgical Outcomes - Many Contributing Factors - Frequency and Experience of Surgeries ---------- Subscribe to My Youtube Channel: https://youtube.com/@sammillerscience?si=s1jcR6Im4GDHbw_1 ---------- My Live Program for Coaches: The Functional Nutrition and Metabolism Specialization www.metabolismschool.com ---------- [Free] Metabolism School 101: The Video Series http://www.metabolismschool.com/metabolism-101 ---------- Grab a Copy of My New Book - Metabolism Made Simple ---------- Stay Connected: Instagram: @sammillerscience Youtube: SamMillerScience Facebook: The Nutrition Coaching Collaborative Community TikTok: @sammillerscience ---------- “This Podcast is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute the practice of medicine, nursing or other professional health care services, including the giving of medical advice, and no doctor/patient relationship is formed.

Dr. Nick Kirk teams up with Dr. Andy Roark on this week's episode of the Cone of Shame Podcast to discuss how he turned his passion into a unique business. Together, they dive into Dr. Nick Kirk's journey to board certification, his business partnership with a technician, and his mission to share knowledge in avian veterinary medicine. LINKS: Migratory Avian Services: https://migratoryavianservices.com/ Association of Avian Veterinarians: https://www.aav.org/ American Board of Veterinary Practitioners: https://abvp.com/ Uncharted on the Road: https://unchartedvet.com/on-the-road/ Charming the Angry Client Course: https://drandyroark.com/charming-the-angry-client/ Dr. Andy Roark Swag: https://drandyroark.com/store/ ABOUT OUR GUEST Dr. Nick Kirk grew up in the Middle Tennessee area, and is a Nashville native. He received his B.S. in Biology with Minors in Chemistry and Music at Belmont University in 2012. After undergrad, he went to the University of Tennessee College of Veterinary Medicine where he graduated with his Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine in 2016. He then went straight into emergency medicine for two years until receiving advice to move to Utah for further avian and exotic training. He then started an ABVP-Avian Residency program at his clinic under the mentorship of Dr. Scott Echols. During this time in Utah he worked in private practice, with three separate facilities (including an all avian AZA facility) as their primary care veterinarian, participated in research, gave national and international presentations, and also picked up relief at a local emergency clinic. After finishing his residency, Dr. Kirk returned to Nashville and passed his boards for specialization. At this time, he continued traveling back and forth to Utah for work and also founded Migratory Avian Services.

On today's Raise the Line, we continue our Next Gen Journeys series featuring conversations with learners in medical professions around the globe. Our special guest is Omer Rott, a longtime participant in our Osmosis Medical Education Fellowship and Osmosis Health Leadership Initiative programs. Omer will soon be earning his medical degree from Masaryk University in the Czech Republic. In addition to pursuing a career as a pediatrician, he's an aspiring diversity and inclusion medical educator who has founded DiverseMedEd, an organization dedicated to improving how healthcare professionals interact with and treat patients from different backgrounds. “There is a big gap in medical education about diverse patient populations. I think healthcare providers and many other people are afraid about how to approach someone or how to ask about their situation, which might lead them to not say anything or not even act the way they think they might need to.” Through a website (link) and social media posts, Omer has already built a following, many of whom are patients happy to be seeing these issues addressed. Join host Hillary Acer for a refreshing look at how the healthcare provider community can be more inclusive, and what lessons Omer has drawn from his extensive work mentoring fellow students over the past five years.Mentioned in this episode:DiverseMedEdEquity GraphicElsevier Blog - Is Wearing Pins Appropriate?

Medscape publicó recientemente un artículo editorial y entrevista relacionada al tema de consciencia inducida por la resucitación cardiopulmonar. La muerte recordada, o consciencia inducida por la RCP, consiste en memorias y percepciones que tienen los pacientes "entre el momento que tienen el paro cardiaco hasta que regresan a la vida", según el artículo de Medscape. Experiencias cercanas a la muerte versus experiencias durante la muerte El artículo hace referencia a la diferencia entre el paciente que tiene un estado de extremadamente bajo flujo sanguíneo al cerebro versus un paciente en paro cardiaco. El paciente que tiene un estado de flujo extremadamente bajo pudiera tener algún estado alterado de consciencia debido a que todavía tiene algo de perfusión cerebral. Sin embargo, el paciente que está en paro cardiaco tiene ausencia de flujo cerebral. Tipos de experiencias de la muerte Recuerdo de la muerte - "recuerdo escuchar a mi abuela (que había fallecido recientemente) decir 'tienes que regresar'" Recuperación de consciencia durante RCP - "recuerdo que cuando desperté me estaban colocando los parches en el pecho y recuerdo la descarga" Recuperación de consciencia en periodo pos-resucitación - "recuerdo a mi pareja diciendo mi nombre y mi hijo llamándome 'mamá'" Recuerdos parecidos a los sueños - "sentí que alguien me agarraba la mano; todo esta oscuro y no podía ver nada". ¿Muerte cerebral en 4-6 minutos? El cerebro puede dejar de funcionar en los primeros 5-10 minutos, pero no necesariamente muere por falta de oxígeno en 5-10 minutos, según el autor del artículo. Importancia de este tiempo en el énfasis de comenzar temprano. Las compresiones cardiacas de alta calidad pueden restablecer el flujo sanguíneo al cerebro y detener este reloj. Las ondas del electroencefalograma pueden mostrar el cese de la actividad eléctrica inicialmente, pero pueden recuperarse inclusive 30-60 minutos de haber comenzar la resucitación. Intentar buenas compresiones versus "garantizar" buenas compresiones Las guías establecen cómo se deben realizar las compresiones de alta calidad. Sabemos que los elementos de RCP de alta calidad tienen un efecto directo en mejorar la perfusión cerebral. No obstante, la posibilidad de tener retroalimentación en tiempo real de que las intervenciones están (o no) siendo efectivas puede ser la diferencia entre "intentar" buenas compresiones y "garantizar" buenas compresiones. Necesidad de retroalimentación en tiempo real Flujo cerebral Localización de las compresiones La sonografía puede ayudar en tiempo real a contestar estas preguntas ya que el ultrasonido puede medir el flujo de sangre y puede ver la ubicación del corazón y el efecto de las compresiones cardiacas. Más allá del ACLS ¿Qué le podemos ofrecer a los pacientes? Depende del problema. El tiempo no es un factor, sino la habilidad de corregir la causa del paro. El detener el esfuerzo demasiado temprano puede ser la causa de la muerte del paciente. Fibrilación ventricular refractaria Cambio de vectores de descarga (estudio DOSE VF) - vea y escuche aquí episodio del ECCpodcast sobre este tema Mantener perfusión RCP mecánico ECMO Proteger el cerebro y corregir la lesión cerebral por hipoxia o anoxia ¿Heads-Up CPR? ¿Hipotermia? ¿Magnesio? Depresión en sobrevivientes de muerte súbita Es perfectamente normal tener diferentes emociones luego de un evento extremo. Esto ocurre con el sobreviviente, su familia, los testigos, y los rescatistas. Existen sobrevivientes que están simplemente felices de haber sobrevivido. Sin embargo, existen muchos sobrevivientes que experimentan depresión clínica. Aunque no todos los pacientes van a necesitar (o querer) ayuda de salud mental posterior a sobrevivir la muerte súbita, es importante poder ofrecer la opción. Muchas comunidades no tienen acceso a recursos de apoyo. Para llenar este vacío, existen asociaciones de sobrevivientes a paro cardiaco que pueden conectar a los sobrevivientes con otros recursos de ayuda. Los recursos de apoyo tienen que incluir personas que entienden lo que ocurre y están dispuestos en primera línea a escuchar activamente, entre otras intervenciones.

The defining challenging of home care, long term supports and services, and day services is recruiting and retaining caregivers. One of the big recommendations that we hear regarding retention is to create career paths, but at the same time we struggle to make a reasonable margin at the rates that we're able to charge. Today's guest, in his 3rd appearance on the Home Care Heroes and Day Service Stars podcast, is Steve "the Hurricane" Weiss, the CEO of the consulting firm Home Care Evolution. Steve's organization is one of the preeminent home care coaching and consulting organizations in the US. I had the priviledge to attend one of Steve's Home Care boot camps and a specific session, on the topic of "Care Coordinators" resonated strongly with me. Today's episode dives into the way that adding care coordinators to a home care agency does three key things: 1) It creates a career care, 2) It results in a differentiated level of care, and 3) It gives you an opportunity to charge more. The term "TRIFECTA" comes from betting on horse racing. To win this kind of bet you need to pick the first place, second place and 3rd place horses, in order. So the connotation is that a Trifecta is a big three-part win. Some of the key concepts addressed in the episode are as follows:Having Care Coordinators creates a career path within your agency for the right kinds of peopleThese coordinators ensure that the client's needs are well understood and that the caregiver(s) are well-prepared to do an excellent jobSince the best home care clients have complex needs, having a coordinator check in regularly makes sure that the care is evolving with those needs as they change.Another key benefit is that unlike your competitors who will start recruiting for a caregiver once they close the client, your coordinators have flexibility in their schedules to start care right away and meet families right away when opportunities present themselvesYet another benefit is that junior caregivers are supported and know that a senior team member will be visiting regularly to help them. This cuts down on cases where newly trained caregivers feel overwhelmed and quitLastly, having coordinators results in a premium service that you can charge for. Some agencies justifiably raise their rates when they have care coordinators and others charge separately for the coordinators, and families are willing to pay.Despite this episode being a deep dive into care coordination, it really only scratches the surface. Home Care Evolution will provide a free consulting session to your agency on this topic or many others. Plus, as I said, attending one of their boot camps opens your eyes to many ways the best agencies are thriving.Home Care Heroes and Day Service Stars is produced and sponsored by Ankota - If you provide services that enable older or disabled people to continue living at home , Ankota can provide you the software to successfully run your agency..

Renowned endocrinologist Dr. Roshani Sanghani believes that the battle against diabetes will be won not with more medication, but less. She joins us from India to discuss her unique approach to combating this global health crisis. Dr. Sanghani's "lifestyle-first "philosophy stresses cultural understanding and patient education over heavily-prescribed medicines. As you'd expect, her approach is making waves, as well as getting extraordinary results.Is carbohydrate restriction a viable treatment for diabetes or is it merely a controversial theory? Dr. Sanghani challenges conventional guidelines because it often overlooks the role of diet in disease management. We ask her why the medical community resists this therapeutic approach. She touches upon possible reasons, such as conflict of interest and cognitive bias, and emphasizes her call for a more comprehensive, patient-centric approach to treatment.Finally, Dr. Sanghani shares some good news about her upcoming book on diabetes management, which she hopes will help revolutionize the current approach to diabetes. -----------------Connect with Dr. Sanghani WebsiteInstagramFacebookLinkedIn Chances are, you wouldn't be listening to this podcast if you didn't need to change your life and get healthier.
