Like all popular trends, it's easy to adopt the latest and "greatest" technology as soon as it's released into the world. But what responsibility do Catholic health systems have in evaluating what changes they need to make? What - and who - is top of mind when these decisions are made?Michael Sellers, Vice President of Facilities Management for Saint Anthony Hospital in Chicago, joins the show to discuss the facilities and operations perspective on changing health care technology. Sellers discusses Saint Anthony's recent innovations, their community-based strategy for making needed upgrades, and the importance of operations as a voice at the decision-making table.

Outpatient CDI is not a traditional discipline—and so it stands to reason that its practitioners don't always hail from traditional backgrounds. One such person is Glenda Bocskovits. I'd call her a former transcriptionist, but she still practices that craft with the Mayo Clinic. But Glenda has since expanded her career into cutting edge practice as an outpatient CDI specialist with Catholic Health. We get into Glenda's unique career path, the obstacles of breaking into CDI as a non-clinician, and address the eternal question: What is the ROI of OP CDI? We cover the following topics:  Transcription: That's still done? It is (hear why). The ROI of outpatient CDI  Catholic Health's thorough process of OP CDI chart review: Prospective, current/pre-bill, and retrospective Common conditions requiring clarification and what continues to trip up providers A day in the life of: What Glenda's job entails Obstacles of getting into CDI as a non-nurse and strategies for landing elusive interviews Glenda's career motivations and song selection for the Off the Record Spotify playlist 

Technological advances are nothing new for caregivers, who have been saturated with new tools to "help" them for decades. But are those tools actually helping?

In this episode, Dr. Patricia Gabow, former CEO of Denver Health, discussed her values-driven leadership of the safety-net system, which remained financially stable while serving a predominantly uninsured and underserved population through integrated care and lean management. She highlighted concerns from her recent book about the growing influence of Catholic health systems in the U.S., particularly their adherence to religious directives that restrict reproductive, gender-related, and end-of-life care. Gabow emphasized the lack of transparency in these systems, noting that most patients are unaware of the limitations until they need care. She criticized the shift from mission-driven leadership by nuns to profit-focused lay leadership, often disconnected from frontline health care realities. While hopeful about Pope Francis's advocacy for the poor, she expressed disappointment in the lack of reform among American bishops and health systems.

On the morning of Thursday, June 20, unionized nurses at Ascension St. Agnes Hospital in Baltimore held a rally outside the hospital to raise awareness of their efforts to secure a first contract and to show management that they're not backing down from their core demands for safe staffing and an operational model that puts patients and patient care first. "St. Agnes nurses are calling on Ascension to accept their proposals to improve safe staffing and, subsequently, nurse retention," a press release from National Nurses Organizing Committee/National Nurses United (NNOC/NNU) stated. "Nearly 20 percent of nurses at St. Agnes began employment at the hospital after January 1 of this year. Meanwhile, just over a third of nurses have more than four years of experience at the hospital... The Catholic hospital system is one of the largest in the country with 140 hospitals in 19 states and also one of the wealthiest, with cash reserves, an investment company, and a private equity operation worth billions of dollars—and, because of its nonprofit status, is exempt from paying federal taxes." In this on-the-ground episode, we take you to the NNOC/NNU picket line and speak with Nicki Horvat, an RN in the Neonatal Intensive Care unit at Ascension St. Agnes and member of the bargaining team, about what she and her coworkers are fighting for.

As healthcare workers face burnout and cultural shifts, Catholic parents grapple with questions about their parental rights and ethical decisions, including issues surrounding birth control and abortion. Nichole offers valuable insights and advice to empower Catholic moms in making informed healthcare choices. Key Points: 1. Understanding the Current Healthcare Atmosphere: Nichole highlights the burnout and stress faced by healthcare workers post-pandemic, leading to various challenges, including issues concerning parental rights. 2. Know Your Parental Rights: As a Catholic mom, it is crucial to be aware of your parental rights in your state. You have the right to refuse treatments and services for your children, ensuring they receive the care that aligns with your values. 3. Asserting Yourself Gracefully: In countercultural situations, it can be challenging to assert your beliefs without feeling judged. Nichole advises using respectful language and having go-to phrases to confidently communicate your decisions without the need for extensive explanations. 4. Recognizing Disguised Terminology: In a rapidly evolving healthcare landscape, some terms may be used to downplay the ethical implications of certain treatments. Nichole warns about how terms like "conception" have been redefined and how that may hide the abortifacient nature of treatments like the morning after pill, and encourages asking questions and seeking advice when uncertain. 5. Educating Children about Ethical Healthcare: As a mom, Nichole emphasizes the importance of educating children about their bodies and healthcare choices. Honest discussions about the Church's teachings and using informative resources help prepare them for future medical decisions. Conclusion: This podcast sheds light on the challenges faced by Catholic moms in navigating the healthcare system, preserving their parental rights, and making ethical decisions. Nichole's insights and advice provide valuable guidance for Catholic parents to confidently advocate for their children's well-being while remaining true to their faith.
