What if the secret to raising confident, empathetic, and healthy kids lies not in what you tell them, but in what you model for them every day? Tune in to discover practical strategies for integrating holistic well-being into both your life and your children's, and start leading by example today! About Autumn Swain Dr. Autumn Swain began her work in the faith-based nonprofit space by working with youth and families through a grassroots community development corporation, Nehemiah: Center for Urban Leadership Development. It was in this space that she found a way to use her gifts at the intersection of leadership and community development as well as holistic well-being involving both cross cultural and cross sector initiatives to impact leaders and their organizations through the company she founded, The Aligned Leader. It is Dr. Swain's belief that one of the greatest assets in our communities are its leaders, whether children or adults. Her unique perspective supports collaborative efforts and holistic strategies, increasing the capacity, health and fulfillment in the leader, their teams, and communities. In 2022, as a presenter at CCDA, a national gathering of leaders from all sectors, including faith-based institutions, non-profits, government and corporations with social impact initiatives, she focused on innovative strategies for community renewal through the integration of a blueprint for leader well-being.

Our experience is vast covering all sizes of organizations and industries. Notes: Seg 2 Redgear IT company responsible for security of their clients. IT is a lifestyle. RedGear value proposition is turkey solutions. They are your smart friend to help with tech. Support IT for small businesses. They also have larger enterprise type clients. They act as a consultant, and can screen for a CTO or a CIO for a company. IT should be a priority of companies yet, it is often an afterthought. Need to understand how to secure an IT room, not just in software, but also the actual room itself. Who has access? RedGear works in the tech and security industry which is the backbone of all organizations and compliance. People hire RedGear to outsource and shift liability. IT in its simplest form is anything that you plug into the wall and connect to the Internet. It can also mean security. Trust of your IT provider, and keeping business contingency. Question, businesses always have to answer is how long can they stay down with an interruption and survive. Plus what is their plan for data retention. IT can be about network, connections, computers, hardware, and the actual Physical IT room. Can also deal in cyber security and password resets. IT has both software as well as hardware like servers and programming applications. Luciano has 20+ years of experience working in IT and technology. Information Technology not always the priority of many companies but it really should be. Need a plan going forward to manage security and data in all businesses. You have to determine what's going to be your budget based on the size of the business. Not uncommon to outsource to companies like RedGear. Also need to think about the physical aspects of IT, like is your room secure? What type of energy your BTU air conditioner usage are you using? Who has control, how cool is it. Who has access to the room? What is your electrical circuit set up? Do you have redundancy? Or electrical circuit separate and dedicated to the IT. What is your data or cloud storage like? Seg 3 IT is the backbone of many organizations and should be a priority. Need to hire trustworthy people, as well as outsource IT to trustworthy companies. There's no perfect set up. Unfortunately, security breaches are more question of When, and not if. One of the worst stories about IT Luciano ever heard of was the janitor storage closet was the same as the IT room. Another issue with a lot of IT rooms is they don't have good cooling. IT should be a separate room with good security. You want to also have video security and badge access. Physical access of an IT room is very underrated. Security is the biggest threat to the end-user. You have to know when a breach happens. How did it happen? It could be software but often it's actually the employees as a threat. They need to pay attention to what is going on and types of emails they get. Also, sometimes security breaches are an inside job. Companies need to test and educate their staff about IT. Once Malware gets in to the system it can take over accounts and send email as the person. Phishing scams unfortunately are still very popular with emails. Good email security typically will filter out malicious emails. Then you waitlist your contact, so you know who it's OK to email. All these need to examine emails. Seg 4 IT reviews & monitors compliance, so a company must determine a budget. Data is the gold of companies now. Data contains the companies processes, industry secrets, and private employee and customer info. It is crucial to have a backup of company data, typically onsite and secured, plus offsite in the cloud. You'll always want to build in redundancy and have backup servers for data. Good IT set up will have disaster recovery. As for the physical set up and protecting data, you want to be aware of how your sprinkler system is set up. You always have to guard against disgruntled employees, who could steal or delete company data. Your IT provider needs to know the industry and have good experience to engineer the proper solution. RedGear has worked with some top level clients, including the DEA in Washington DC on a federal level. Their cyber security needs to be top-of-the-line. It is not in common for the average big company to deal with corporate attacks where hackers try to steal data, and then even hold it hostage for ransom. Common practice nowadays is for a business to have cyber security liability insurance. The application for the insurance will ask about the physical environment and the set up of the IT and data. The medical industry has updated cyber and HIPAA compliance. It is essential to have good IT, hospitals and any major medical office. RedGear is your IT smart friends. They will always give you recommendations of good better and best.

In the Beyond Charity sermon series, consider with us an approach to community development rooted in CCDA which transforms “you, them, and theirs” to “we, us and ours” which allows us to co-create holistic flourishing in our neighborhoods, cities and beyond. Today, Pastor Stephanie shares how instead of coming with a quick-fix solution, we need to hear and answer the call of God to put ourselves in direct, personal relationship with others to discover the felt needs of the people. The components of relocation, listening to the community and mutuality guide us unlearning our instinct to quick-fixes. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wellingtonheightschurch/support
Although a for-profit institution, Post University employs a unique and effective two-fold approach to ensure graduates are career-ready with lifelong learning skills that “not-for-profit” universities can emulate on their campuses. In this podcast episode, Dr. Drumm McNaughton speaks with Director Camille Dumont of the Center for Career and Professional Development (CCPD) about how she aligned career services with academia at Post University to better prepare students for the workforce. Camille discusses how Post ensures students are thinking about their careers from the moment they enroll and how online-only learners receive and benefit from the same services as those who attend the university on campus. Podcast Highlights Camille's mindset on lifelong learning is influenced by personal experience. She successfully transferred the skills she learned in the hotel industry to the healthcare industry and now to higher ed, where she works in career services. Originally, only Post's juniors and seniors took a critical Foundation course to learn critical information about their career choices alongside their cohorts in the same field of study. In these courses, students receive prompts to encourage online or in-person discussions so they can start thinking about what it is they want to do. On the academic side, students now have conversations with admissions and advising as soon as they are accepted to determine what major or career they might be interested in. Students are then enrolled in a CTC College to Career course based on their answers to provide them with important information as early as possible about their chosen career path, such as the lifestyles of current employees or possible outcomes in related occupations. This can either validate their interests or give them the opportunity to switch early on. On the non-academic side, a new CCPD program prepares students for the junior and senior Foundation courses as soon as they enroll. Students first take an assessment of who they are and then build different types of resumes, participate in mock interviews, and learn the art of interviewing and networking, along with the benefits of joining professional associations. CCPD also meets virtually with online students throughout the week. CCPD uses the virtual job platform Handshake to conduct virtual career fairs for online students. Post's webinars inform these students how to prepare for a virtual career fair such as how to ensure they have the proper background, lighting, and attire. Meanwhile, students create their resumes and upload them onto Handshake. CCPD has programs where employers or alumni talk to students on campus. These events are livestreamed, recorded, and hosted on the university website and YouTube channel for online-only students. These recordings are also repurposed for additional learning opportunities. For example, students are asked to identify what skills employers say they need in these recordings and, if they can, to add them to their resume or incorporate them into their overall conversation with employers when applying for a job or internship. Post University starts at the basics by not assuming students know everything about transitioning to the workforce to ensure everyone is on the same page. For example, students are taught what a discussion board, rubric, or resume is. Post also ensures that students understand that all work experience matters and that the skills they learned in these jobs are transferrable to various careers. For instance, retail workers acquire customer service and communication skills. Post students have access to a locked closet with gently used professional men's and women's attire that have been donated by staff and faculty members. Students can try these clothes on and even take them for use in interviews and career fairs, etc. Read the transcript → About Our Podcast Guest Camille Dumont, recently named Director of the Center for Career and Professional Development (CCPD) at Post University, brings a wealth of experience to the role. She has been part of the university since 2011, initially as a faculty member and then in various leadership roles. With a background in health services management and a strong foundation in business skills gained from her early career at the Plaza Hotel in New York City, Camille is well-equipped to lead the CCPD. She has also been actively involved in professional organizations like CCCDA, NACE, and NCDA. Camille's goal is to expand CCPD services to benefit all Post students, both on-campus and online, with innovative programs and support for their career journeys.

Strengthening the Soul of Your Leadership with Ruth Haley Barton
This is a replay of an episode we released only to patrons of The Strengthening the Soul of Your Leadership podcast. While we take a small hiatus from normal programming to attend to the work of The Transforming Center as well as a special Digital Film Capture project we invite you to revisit some of our previous seasons. Please visit our website to learn more about the work of The Transforming Center and our Digital Capture project! For our patrons during the Lent season we recorded a special conversation with Sandra Van Opstal. Sandra sat down with Ruth and Tina to discuss why lent is so significant to someone who was formed in a Latina Roman Catholic tradition, how the Transforming Center helped make the bridge to a reforma-costal BIPOC pastoral space as well as why diverse spiritual practices lead us to solidarity and mutuality. This conversation was insightful and important for us all as we seek to be leaders doing God's important justice work. Sandra Maria Van Opstal is a second-generation Latina and the executive director of Chasing Justice. She is an author, pastor, and activist reimagining the intersection of faith and justice. Her work centers on chasing justice under the mentorship of the global church, for the mobilizing of the next generation of leaders. Sandra has given leadership in global movements such as Lausanne, The Justice Conference, and Urbana Missions Conference. She has also had a strong domestic presence as an executive pastor at Grace and Peace Church and as an activist on the west-side of Chicago. Sandra serves as a board member for CCDA. She holds a Masters of Divinity from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School and is currently pursuing doctoral work in urban leadership and transformation. She is a contributor to the New York Times Bestselling book A Rhythm of Prayer and she's also the author of The Next Worship. If you'd like to hear more content like this, become a patron!

This episode's guest is Dave Navarro, Senior Director of Data Science for Harmony Healthcare IT, a data management and lifecycle solutions firm. Dave joins the Dish on Health IT host, Ken Kleinberg, and co-host, Jocelyn Keegan,to talk 21st Century Cures Act and the change in the definition of “EHI”, critical components of plans to purge, archive, or transition data to new platforms, and how to marry data in various formats and versions of CCDA and FHIR. Ken kicked off the episode by asking co-host, Jocelyn Keegan, to briefly introduce herself and to share what she's looking forward to learning from today's guest.Jocelyn responded by explaining that she is the payer-practice lead at POCP, devoted to positive change and building/getting stuff done. She went on to say that her focus is on interoperability, prior authorizations, and the convergence of tech, standards, and product strategy. She also serves as the program manager for the HL7 Da Vinci Project. Da Vinci started as a conceptual idea of emulating the great work produced by the argonaut project but with a focus on payers and providers, value-based care, and clinical data interoperability and has become likely the most expansive of the FHIR Accelerators to date, focused on payer-provider collaboration.Ken then asked guest, Dave Navarro to briefly introduce himself and to include his professional background and journey to Harmony Health.Dave reiterated that he is the Senior Director of Data Science at Harmony and that he started his career about 22 years ago in the health IT world. He explained that he started by configuring EHRs and building clinical integrations for financial systems and clinical systems for Cerner Corporation.Dave explained that early on he had a lot of exposure to different data formats and files and that he's been spending the last 17-plus years in the health information exchange world. He landed at Harmony Health to work on the interoperability of legacy data and the legacy data solutions Harmony provides.Ken asked Dave to expound a little more on the work Harmony Health is doing.Dave explained that Harmony helps their clients' archive data from a legacy system or in some cases transition data from a legacy system to a new system. If data are archived, they must still be in a format that can be managed, accessed, and consumed to inform clinical decisions.Harmony offers the Health Data Archivers solution, which includes extraction services. Clients can also earmark data that they'd like to have posted in their new system.Ken then shifted the conversation by asking how the industry as a whole or different stakeholders in particular view 21st Century Cures differently and whether Dave wishes there was a perspective the industry would share about how they approach compliance.Dave started by admitting that he hasn't read the entire 21st Century's Cures Act but has familiarized himself with the portions related to interoperability. He shared that he believes this legislation is a good thing. Dave pointed out that while it was signed back in 2016, the industry is just now seeing the results.He explained that he believes Cures has pushed the industry towards the adoption of content standards such as USCDI and transmission standards like HL7 CDA and now FHIR. Dave then went on to talk about the data blocking provision explaining that nobody wants to be a data blocker. This portion of the Act helps open the data stream and make data available where EHRs and ultimately patients can view it.Concerning what perspective he wishes the industry would share, Dave explained that it's about FHIR. He realizes that FHIR is a little bit scary to some, but that the industry should be starting with FHIR. Dave explains that one reason he believes this is the relative ease to understand and use FHIR compared to CDA, which has been a bit challenging to figure out. He went on to say that with FHIR, someone can study an implementation guide for an hour and pretty much figure it out. Dave also pointed out the FHIR US Core data set as being a good specification.Dave then went on to explain that while FHIR isn't an architecture guide it can be used to help make architecture decisions when an implementer is getting started. He added that FHIR builds on the work the industry has done on CDA and takes the lessons learned and fixes a lot of what the industry was frustrated by with CDA.Ken asked Jocelyn to share her view of Cures based on her day-to-day work as program manager of Da Vinci Project focused on payer-provider data exchange. Jocelyn expressed that everything Dave said is so incredibly important. From the Da Vinci perspective, she explained that there is an ongoing dialogue about the intersection of and confusion about the year-end USCDI V3 and FHIR R4 capabilities along with everything in the electronic health information (EHI) requirement. Joce expressed that this is a great example where folks are looking for additional guidance before making new investments. She explained that most EHRs have a big lift to meet that requirement in a meaningful way. Joce continued by saying that FHIR alone isn't necessarily going to get the industry to the semantic interoperability that it's striving for but that if the industry would pick up the FHIR implementation guides in addition to the more advanced workflow guides, the industry would be making progress toward where it wants to be.The group spoke briefly about the expansion of the definition of EHI to expand outside of USCDI V1 and that many stakeholders are not ready to meet the October deadline. Dave pointed out that ultimately every journey starts with one step, and everyone just needs to pick a place to start which ideally would probably be USCDI V3, and start the work.Jocelyn pointed out that by nature stakeholders under regulation want to achieve certification She went on to say that investments were already made in CDA & CCDA and there's lots of CCDA data moving around. She went on to add that the big question is how the industry is going to manage the collision and misalignment of data formats. And how will the industry decide what needs to be codified, and cleansed and what's OK to remain unstructured? There are several stakeholders in the industry that have stood up to say that it's important that data created today needs to be usable and shareable going forward.Dave shared the experience he's had working in the historical archive world. He explained that for the most part, he encounters more organizations simply interested in checking the regulatory and requirements box, but that Cures pushes toward data being structured and codified simply by setting the expectation that patients will be able to access all their data which means that data, even unstructured data isn't going away. He went on to say that even if only minimum pieces of data or data from specific timeframes are migrated to a new system, archives must be able to be queried so a patient can access that data whether it's in the current EHR system or not. The perpetuity of data required by the info-blocking rule must change the industry's mindset.Ken asked Dave to share some of the surprising or challenging questions from Harmony clients or notable projects. Dave explained that sometimes clients can share their entire database at the start of a project and this is ideal so the Harmony team can go through everything, and it makes extraction a little easier. What is being seen in many of these projects is that as the team goes through and looks for NDC codes, signature lines, problem descriptions, or allergy lists, the data isn't codified. This information will be there as text. For this data to be queried from any archive, it's got to be codified.Dave added that they use the specifications from USCDI and cross-reference them with FHIR US Core. Dave continued to explain in more complex detail some of the data types and mapping that occur to ensure the archived data can be queried effectively in the future. Dave pointed out that as painful as it sounds, he has been through every single element in the FHIR specification for US Core. He expressed how well put together US Core is and it's critical to how they do their work.Ken then asked about how consent is handled during these archiving projects. This led to a robust conversation with Dave sharing that consents get archived if they are found, however the most recent consent on record in the current EHR would likely be applied to how any data pulled from the archive would be shared.The group went on to discuss the complexity of consent and the importance of establishing and maintaining eConsent in a scalable way. Jocelyn pointed out that through the discussions she's had with stakeholders and through her personal experiences, the industry needs to solve this so that patients can manage their consents in a secure, central place so they can update and change their consents based on their changing lives.Jocelyn then shifted the conversation toward the nature of adoption. She explained that she's heard some express resistance to FHIR because they perceive a push to rip and replace everything with FHIR. Jocelyn shared that she and most other industry leaders aren't proponents of that rip-and-replace concept but rather an incremental adoption approach where you adopt and use FHIR in the use cases it can best support and that FHIR can co-exist and interact with other standards. Jocelyn asked Dave to share his thoughts on FHIR adoption.Dave responded by saying that as much as he's been talking about FHIR, he doesn't yet have anyone with FHIR capabilities coming to query and retrieve data. Dave explained that what he has seen are stakeholders on the eHealth Exchange are part of Commonwell and they're familiar with exchanging data via those networks primarily using CDA formats. We start with where our clients are now but it's important to have FHIR capability built in so multiple formats are supported. He went on to say that in some instances you may have an instance where a FHIR API is used to request data in a CDA document. The industry certainly isn't going to be purely FHIR anytime soon if ever.As is tradition, Ken asked Dave to close out the podcast by sharing what he would like to see from the industry.Dave joked that as cliché as it must sound, interoperability is a journey and not a destination. The industry isn't going to fix everything by some policy deadline, and we aren't going to solve everything with just FHIR alone.Dave went on to say that the industry can learn a lot about how to architect their data by examining these standards to help guide those decisions. While FHIR is not intended as a data model, it is a good specification that can inform a well-formed database.Ken thanked guest, Dave Navarro, and co-host Jocelyn Keegan before reminding listeners that they can find and subscribe to The Dish on Health IT podcast on Apple Podcast, Spotify, or whatever platform listeners use to pick up podcasts and that videos of episodes can be found on the POCP YouTube Channel.

As we've been in this 3rd season of the podcast, we've had the indelible privilege of speaking to people who have been at the center of justice and peace activity, both in their life personally, as an application of biblical instruction, but also in their city…and fort us here, they've been active and at the center of justice and peace in our city, making the kind of difference that for our guest today, has spanned generations. Neighborhood Ministries is a pillar in downtown Phoenix. Located just on the other side of the tracks, Neighborhood has been at the forefront, demonstrating God's heart for the poor, the marginalized…and the immigrant. Established now 40 years ago this year by founder & president, Kit Danley, Neighborhood Ministries, has become a refuge for so many and continues to bring life, justice and peace to an area that was often faced with death, injustice and chaos. In this episode, Kit graciously dialogues with myself, John and Vermon about how to see justice, both in neighborhoods and for local communities here, but also for those abroad who, for many reasons, now find themselves here. We're reminded that God's heart is for them all, and in prophetic style, Kit has demonstrated that to our city, and explains to us today, just how much.
