The Roundtable Panel: a daily open discussion of issues in the news and beyond. Today's panelists are Founder and Academic Director of the Hannah Arendt Center for Politics and Humanities and Professor of Politics, Philosophy, and Human Rights at Bard College Roger Berkowitz, public policy and communications expert Theresa Bourgeois, Joseph Palamountain Jr. Chair in Government at Skidmore College Beau Breslin, and Dean of the College of Emergency Preparedness, Homeland Security, and Cybersecurity at the University at Albany Robert Griffin.

In a compelling virtual roundtable hosted by Steve Gurney on the Positive Aging Community platform, three seasoned Aging Life Care Managers (ALCMs) shared their expertise and personal journeys on September 10, 2025. Featuring Samantha McDaniel of Aging Individualized (Maryland), Leslie Mason of Seabury Care Management (DC metro area), and Annette Murphy of Spring Point at Home (New Jersey), the discussion offered a deep dive into the holistic role of ALCMs, addressing real-world challenges like dementia care, emergency preparedness, and family dynamics. Spanning 14 pages of transcribed insights, this session provided actionable strategies for families and professionals alike.The panelists' diverse backgrounds underscored the adaptability of ALCMs. Samantha McDaniel, a solo practitioner with over 10 years in senior living, founded Aging Individualized to deliver personalized care across Maryland and virtually. Her shift from community roles to home-based support was driven by a desire to "impact change" directly where clients live. Leslie Mason, a clinical manager at Seabury since 2004, transitioned from teaching and pediatric social work after a chance hospital encounter with a care manager, now serving older and disabled adults in the DC region. Annette Murphy, leading Spring Point's home division, brought a geriatrics-focused career from therapy and social work, joining the field after mentorship from a national ALCM, seeking freedom to follow clients' needs.Annette Murphy clarified the ALCM role, noting that the term “Aging Life Care” is trademarked by the Aging Life Care Association (ALCA), requiring vetted members to adhere to a strict code of ethics. With backgrounds in social work, nursing, gerontology, or recreation therapy, ALCMs assess the “whole person”—physical, emotional, social, and environmental needs—crafting tailored care plans. Gurney likened them to “wedding planners,” “quarterbacks,” or “wing people” for aging, emphasizing their role in resource navigation and mediation. Leslie Mason added that ALCMs are “big thinkers” who dive into details to enhance quality of life, while the ALCA's eight knowledge areas (e.g., health, housing, legal) guide their practice. Families can find local ALCMs via the ALCA website by zip code.Dementia Care and Initiating Change (Samantha McDaniel): McDaniel noted a rise in calls from families struggling to start conversations with loved ones with dementia. In one case, a woman with mid-stage dementia, isolated and calling ambulances frequently, shifted to assisted living after McDaniel's questions about quality of life—“What do you wake up for?”—led to a self-initiated respite stay where she thrived. She emphasized ALCMs as mediators, helping families navigate resistance objectively.Young Onset Dementia and Dual Needs (Leslie Mason): Mason highlighted the growing challenge of young onset dementia (e.g., Alzheimer's under 65), where resources for older or middle-aged adults fall short. Seabury's information line addresses this “heartbreaking” gap, while she also supports parents of adult children with disabilities facing physical limits, requiring dual-age management.Emergency Preparedness as a Gift (Annette Murphy): Murphy introduced a crisis planning kit, mandated for Spring Point clients, covering evacuation plans, water shutoffs, and “go bags” with emergency contacts. Inspired by her FEMA experience, she framed it as a “roadmap” for solo elders and out-of-state families, addressing power outages and snowstorms. This initiative, expandable to all ALCMs, offers peace of mind.Handling Complex Family Dynamics (Tina's Case): Tina's question about a verbally threatening mother, despite a social worker's involvement, led to suggestions: home-visiting physicians for documentation, psychiatric crisis intervention if needed, and building a professional network. The panel urged assessing competence and risk, offering post-call consultations.

For 12 hours this week, islanders and coastal B.C. residents were watching for news of a tsunami. It didn't arrive, but it did give us a chance to figure out the difference between a “watch,” an “advisory,” and a “warning,” and whether we even get notifications. This week's episode catches up on what we learned - including that drones can help spread the news to remote areas.

In this episode of Redefining CyberSecurity, Sean Martin talks with Tobias Halmans, an incident responder at admeritia, who helps organizations prepare for and respond to incidents in OT environments. Tobias shares why disaster recovery planning in OT requires more than simply adapting IT frameworks. It demands a change in approach, mindset, and communication.OT engineers don't think in terms of “ransomware readiness.” They think in terms of safety, uptime, manual fallback options, and how long a plant can stay operational without a SCADA system. As Tobias explains, while IT teams worry about backup integrity and rapid rebooting, OT teams are focused on whether shutting down a system—even safely—is even an option. And when the recovery plan depends on third-party vendors, the assumptions made on both sides can derail the response before it begins.Tobias walks us through the nuances of defining success in OT recovery. Unlike the IT world's metrics like mean time to recover (MTTR), OT environments often hinge on production impacts and safety thresholds. Recovery Time Objectives (RTOs) still exist—but they must be anchored in real-world plant operations, often shaped by vendor limitations, legacy constraints, and tightly regulated safety requirements.Perhaps most importantly, Tobias stresses that business continuity planning for OT can't just be a cybersecurity add-on. It must be part of broader risk and operational conversations, ideally happening when systems are being designed or upgraded. But in reality, many organizations are only starting these conversations now—often driven more by compliance mandates than proactive risk strategy.Whether you're a CISO trying to bridge the gap with your OT counterparts or an engineer wondering why cyber teams keep showing up with playbooks that don't fit, this conversation offers grounded, real-world insight into what preparedness really means for critical operations.⬥SPONSORS⬥LevelBlue: https://itspm.ag/attcybersecurity-3jdk3ThreatLocker: https://itspm.ag/threatlocker-r974⬥RESOURCES⬥Inspiring Article: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/sarah-fluchs_notfallvorsorge-in-der-ot-traut-euch-activity-7308744270453092352-Q8X1⬥ADDITIONAL INFORMATION⬥✨ More Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast:

PAH is a serious, progressive condition, and its effective management involves the consideration of several factors to meet treatment goals. The utilization of patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) to enhance shared decision-making can be a valuable tool to help integrate lifestyle, palliative care, and patient goals into a PAH care plan and address diverse and global needs.

For nearly a decade, state and local officials disacussed how to avoid fatalities, injuries, and property damage in the Guadalupe River valley in Texas. They failed to secure funds for a public warning siren. The flood killed more than 120 people and at least 160 are missing. Earlier this year, after numerous warnings by inspectors, a levee in Oregon gave way, damaging more than 950 homes, including those of the Burns Paiute Tribe. And on the Navajo Nation, notification was key to helping hundreds of residents evacuate as the Oak Ridge fire consumed more than 11,000 acres. We'll hear about those and emergency plans by some other tribes aimed at keeping threats from becoming human tragedies. GUESTS Donovan Quintero (Diné), freelance reporter with the Navajo Times Nelson Andrews Jr. (Mashpee Wampanoag), former tribal councilman, owner of Red Turtle Consulting LLC and CEO of American Indian Relief Bodie Shaw (Confederated Tribes of the Warm Springs), former deputy regional director for the Northwest Region of the Bureau of Indian Affairs and former national wildland fire director for BIA Suzanne Settle, emergency services and resiliency director for the Burns Paiute

In this episode of the SMFM Podcast, Dr. Rupesh Patel welcomes Dr. Kay Daniels and Dr. Carey Eppes for an important conversation on emergency preparedness in the setting of obstetric (OB) care. Together, they break down the four key principles of emergency preparedness—mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery—and explore how these apply to both OB clinicians and their patients.  Using real-world examples like wildfires, poor air quality, tropical storms, flooding, tornadoes, extreme heat, and mass casualty events, the discussion provides a comprehensive overview of what OB clinicians need to know in the face of natural disasters. Drs. Daniels and Eppes explain how hospitals are structured to respond to emergencies, what resources are typically available, how OB and maternity care units manage care during emergencies and most importantly, the role OB providers play during these critical situations.  The episode also offers actionable guidance for helping pregnant and postpartum patients prepare for emergencies. From what to include in an emergency kit to how clinicians can effectively communicate and stay connected with patients during and after a disaster, this episode is a must-listen for providers committed to delivering safe care—even in the most unpredictable circumstances.    Click here for the full episode transcript.

As Tony—along with the rest of our nation—mourns the loss of life resulting from the Medina River floods in Kerr County, Texas, he also takes a moment to reflect on emergency preparedness and the all-too-human tendency to become complacent when vigilance is required. As a rancher living in the area, Tony shares local history, insights, and information about the current tragedy, but also examples of people who had evacuation plans formed as well as practiced, trusted their judgment on when to leave, and saved the lives of their families/groups with their preparation and foresight.

Send us a textLinked In: https://www.linkedin.com/in/richardmarn/Readiness quiz: https://emergency.scoreapp.com/A staggering statistic opens this eye-opening conversation with Dr. Richard Marn: one person per day dies in the United States due to medical emergencies that begin in dental offices. As a board-certified anesthesiologist with decades of experience, Dr. Marn reveals the critical safety gaps in dental practices and how his journey from academic medicine to founding Blue Pacific Medical Simulation led him to address this overlooked public health issue.Dr. Marn introduces us to the fascinating "beehive versus lung" concept – explaining how hospital teams function collaboratively like beehives during emergencies, while dental practices often rely on the dentist alone (the "lung") to handle everything. This fundamental difference in approach creates dangerous vulnerabilities when seconds matter most.The heart of the episode explores Dr. Marn's innovative Four Pillars of Sedation Emergency Readiness: Infrastructure, Competency, Culture, and Habit. Beyond just having the right equipment or knowing CPR, these pillars address psychological safety, team dynamics, and creating systems where everyone knows their role in a crisis. Through compelling examples and practical insights, Dr. Marn demonstrates how dental practices can move from simply checking regulatory boxes to building genuinely effective emergency response capabilities.Perhaps most valuable are the actionable steps dental teams can implement immediately – from five-minute huddles that create psychological safety to using Dr. Marn's free online assessment tool (emergencyscorapp.com) to identify specific practice vulnerabilities. His approach acknowledges the realities of busy dental practices while providing a clear framework for meaningful safety improvements.Whether you're a dental professional looking to enhance your practice's safety protocols or simply someone curious about what happens when things go wrong in healthcare settings, this episode offers profound insights into saving lives when every second counts.
