In this episode of People Solve Problems, host Jamie Flinchbaugh welcomes Dr. Greg Jacobson, CEO and Co-founder of KaiNexus, for an insightful conversation about the intersection of medical training, psychological safety, and continuous improvement culture. Greg's journey into the world of Lean and Kaizen began in 2004 when his department chairman handed him Masaaki Imai's book "Kaizen" and said, "You think like this." As an emergency medicine doctor, Greg was immediately struck by the realization that there was an entire discipline focused on improving systems. He recognized that healthcare had so many operational inefficiencies that applying these principles in the emergency department could yield tremendous results through solving basic problems and capturing low-hanging fruit. The conversation explores how Greg's medical background both helps and hinders systematic thinking about business problems. He explains that physicians are trained with a scientific mindset where every patient encounter resembles an experiment - gathering evidence, forming hypotheses, running tests, and evaluating outcomes. This mirrors the problem-solving methodology used in Lean thinking, making the transition natural for some medical professionals. However, the competitive nature required to succeed in medical school and residency can create fixed mindsets and reduce curiosity, as many doctors become accustomed to being the "alpha dog" who always has the right answers. A significant portion of the discussion focuses on psychological safety and its critical role in enabling improvement. Greg defines psychological safety as "being rewarded for being vulnerable" - whether that's admitting you don't know something, raising concerns about broken processes, or challenging existing systems. Through his experience working in emergency departments across the United States and even New Zealand, he observed that departments where people felt safe to speak up consistently had better outcomes than those where the culture encouraged keeping quiet and just getting the job done. Jamie and Greg explore how technology systems can actually enhance psychological safety by creating a buffer between individuals and problems. When issues are logged in a system rather than raised face-to-face, it shifts the dynamic from personal confrontation to collaborative problem-solving. The issue becomes the common enemy that everyone works together to address, rather than a source of interpersonal tension. Greg notes that rather than reducing human interaction, electronic systems actually increase communication by creating visibility and fostering engagement around improvement opportunities. The conversation turns to habit science and its application to continuous improvement culture. Greg credits reading "The Power of Habit" by Charles Duhigg, "Atomic Habits" by James Clear, and "Tiny Habits" by BJ Fogg with transforming both his personal life and his understanding of organizational change. He explains how KaiNexus applies the habit loop concept - cue, routine, reward - to create interconnected behaviors across different organizational levels. The routine of one person becomes the trigger for another person's habit, creating a web of positive behaviors that sustain improvement culture. When asked about his personal habit transformation, Greg shares how he moved from being an inconsistent squash player who would "demolish his body" once or twice a week to someone who exercises daily. After tearing his ACL in his forties, he used habit science principles to change his identity and create sustainable physical activity routines. Throughout the discussion, Greg emphasizes that KaiNexus is fundamentally about the human transformation that technology enables, not the technology itself. The platform's value comes from people interacting with it in specific ways that foster continuous improvement behaviors across the organization.

I'd like to welcome to the show Dr. David M. Berry, MD, he is a growing voice in the recovery and addiction space, an area that we deal with a ton across EMS and the emergency departments. He is an Emergency Medicine physician with over two decades of experience. You can reach him at dberrymd@hotmail.com We must remember, when working up these patients with addiction, they can have poor health baseline anyway, so they are at higher risk for something emergent to be going on Dr. Berry talks about this approach to opiate OD We have a small window between the ED and definitive care to help addicted patients move forward with treatment – a warm handoff to a treatment center or primary care that can monitor recovery is key We have specific rules for most emergencies but often psychiatry is not on a set system Holds may not always accomplish what we hope they will, it will not force someone to changeBut there is certainly a role for the patient who is genuinely suicidal We talk about good structure of evaluation and treatment of the psychiatric emergencies David talks about some patients he has been able to help with addiction recovery from his experience Don't underestimate the difference we can and do make with patients just because we don't always see the result Dr. Berry talks about the message he has for clinicians:We deal with a lot of emergencies, people actively dying, so when we hear a psych complaint or substance abuse complaint, we tend to mentally shuffle them into a lower priority. We need to remember to have empathy and take their complaints seriously, slow down with these patients We talk about the balance between empathy and detachment and burnout David talks about some methods of humanizing the experience for your patients and getting them to open up more We talk about anchor bias and how to protect from it David talks about conformation bias and how it relates in piloting an aircraft and emergency medicine A key question to ask before you leave a patient room is “Do you have any questions?” – This can be hard to ask because we often want to move on but it's so important to the patientSupport the showFull show notes can be found here: Episodes - Practical EMS - Content for EMTs, PAs, ParamedicsMost efficient online EKG course here: Practical EKG Interpretation - Practical EMS earn 4 CME and learn the fundamentals through advanced EKG interpretation in under 4 hours.

I'd like to welcome to the show Dr. David M. Berry, MD, he is a growing voice in the recovery and addiction space, an area that we deal with a ton across EMS and the emergency departments. He is an Emergency Medicine physician with over two decades of experience. You can reach him at dberrymd@hotmail.com He has an incredible story. He was conceived following a one-night stand and was almost aborted before being put up for adoption to a loving family. He had his first child and felt the gift of knowing his first genetically related family member for the first time.Tragically, his first daughter was diagnosed with spinal muscular atrophy, a diagnosis not compatible with life and she later died around 9 months of age.This led David to turn to alcohol to help deal with the pain. His family took notice of this, so he transitioned to opiates instead of alcohol, something that he could hide more easily. He was eventually found out and spent some time in jail and tried some treatment centers. He lost his medical license, his family left him and he became homeless.His rock bottom was when he found himself homeless living under a bridge with no ID and realized that no one would even realize if he had died. With the help of another doctor, David started taking Suboxone, which helped him to overcome opiate addiction.This opened a path to Dr. Berry getting his medical license back and eventually led to a role as chief of staff of his hospital as well as opening up a rehab clinic in Colorado. Hearing David's story helps put in perspective the fact that none of us are that far removed from the homeless, drug addicted patient we care for in the ER. He talks about his new appreciation for his life and his family We talk about techniques to get patients to open up to us despite our short time with them: “Do you mind if I examine you?” gives the patient some control in the situation Some of our biggest misconceptions about these addicted patients is “They are trying to game the system,” maybe they are, but maybe they are totally out of options or are having a real emergency. “What can I do to help you?” may open up a conversation about what they feel they need Small, short conversations can make a big difference over time We often don't have enough time with patients to label them with anxiety disorder or opiate use disorder, so avoiding labels is probably best in the ED Have a way to work up patients that avoids your biasSupport the showFull show notes can be found here: Episodes - Practical EMS - Content for EMTs, PAs, ParamedicsMost efficient online EKG course here: Practical EKG Interpretation - Practical EMS earn 4 CME and learn the fundamentals through advanced EKG interpretation in under 4 hours.

Today's episode is for every high-achieving woman who has ever felt torn between doing all the things and deeply wanting transformation. If that's you, then big hug. You are not alone. I am beyond thrilled to welcome my friend Dr. Judith Borger to the podcast. From the emergency room to empowerment coaching, Judith knows firsthand what it's like to look like you have it all together while feeling that something deeper is calling you. Together, we dive into what happens when women create intentional space for healing, connection, and true growth. In this episode, we explore: Why healing in community is so powerful, and how women rising together has always been the way. How high-achievers can break free from burnout and create a life of intention, not just obligation. The magic of retreats and why stepping away from the daily grind is sometimes the only way to find clarity. The role of nervous system regulation in transformation—because you cannot create lasting change from a state of overwhelm. Why joy is an act of resistance and how reclaiming what lights you up is more important now than ever. We also talk about the Women's Empowerment and Leadership Retreat happening this April at Miraval (aka the most magical healing vortex of a place), where Judith and I will be leading transformational workshops together! But even if you can't join us in person, this episode is an invitation to ask yourself: When was the last time I prioritized my own healing and joy? What does my soul truly want, separate from what the world expects of me? Who are the women who make me feel seen, safe, and strong?

An ER Doctor Reflects on Gun Violence, Health Inequities, and Moral Injury: An interview with Dr. Ruby J. Long Curt and Katie interview Dr. Ruby Long, ER doctor and restorative justice advocate, about the devastating impact of gun violence in the U.S. and its designation as a public health crisis. Dr. Long highlights its rise as the leading cause of death for children and adolescents and shares the emotional toll on healthcare providers. She reflects on compassion fatigue and moral injury in the ER, which was exacerbated by health inequity and the covid pandemic. Transcripts for this episode will be available at mtsgpodcast.com! In this podcast episode, we talk with Dr. Ruby Long about gun violence Dr. Ruby J. Long has been an ER doctor for a long time and has seen a lot of gun violence come through her doors. She is reaching out to help providers understand the specifics, provides a helpful acronym and is sharing her resourceful book. The Reality of Gun Violence in the U.S. 54% of U.S. adults have been directly affected by firearm violence. Gun violence has surpassed other leading causes of death for children and adolescents. Firearms are the leading cause of death in suicides. It is important that providers are able to identify risk factors, particularly for senior males and veterans, and promoting secure gun storage. How can gun violence impact the medical and mental health providers who are supporting victims? The moral injuries and trauma healthcare professionals face from witnessing the physical and mental health impacts of gun violence. Dr. Long shares her own experiences as an ER doctor and the profound emotional impact of treating gunshot victims. The importance of responsible gun storage and using the "Be SMART" approach: Secure guns. Model responsible behavior. Ask about unsecured guns. Recognize the role of guns in suicide. Tell peers about gun safety. Provider Support and Self-Care: Coping with burnout and moral injuries through personal limits, professional therapy, and systemic support (beyond yoga mats and pizza parties) The importance of small, focused actions in advocating for gun safety and violence prevention. Dr. Long's Book: Love Letters to Patients Inspired by her experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic. Offers resources for health challenges like suicide, domestic violence, and overdose.

REWIND UPDATE: Just a short 32 months ago (!!!) I interviewed the spectacular ER Doctor, Candice Myhre, who saves surfers and regular humans from death and destruction on the regular. In that episode, she mentioned a book she was planning to write, and now she's done it! Well, ALMOST done it! Her manuscript for Sex, Surf, Sutures, Scars: A Surf Doctor's Story of Love and Trauma in the Lineup is in the final editing stages, book proposal is finito, and she has been firing it off to literary agents. She continues to create mermazing stories in her everyday life, and uplift women in life and play!ORIGINAL NOTES: Today's guest is Dr. Candice Myhre, @drcandysurfvival, surf doctor, ER doctor, mermazing surfer, and champion for equality for women in two male-dominated arenas - medicine and surfing. Coming from a surf city where women were not welcome in the lineup, it took a friend flaking on her to send her on the adventure that would change the trajectory of her life, help her through the rigors of medical residency, and learn that everything is timing. Trained as an ER doctor, Candice followed her passion to become a surf doctor on remote islands around the world, with mottos like “will work for surf” and “expert in the unexpected.” Her most harrowing rescue will have your heart pumping! When she accidentally landed on front pages for her posts about #medbikini, she found herself on the podium championing equality for women in medicine, which she handles with both directness and humor. This is just a peek into an extraordinary life! Her new book, Sex, Surf, Sutures, Scars: A Surf Doctor's Story of Love and Trauma in the Lineup should be out next summer and will be an absolute page-turner!

The death toll in Gaza is now inching closer and closer to 30,000, with no end in sight to Israel's bombing or US political, military, and financial support for the genocide unfolding. Amid the carnage and horror of the past 144 days, Gaza's medical workers have worked around the clock under unimaginable conditions to save as many lives as possible. Israel has answered their bravery with brute savagery, laying waste to every single one of Gaza's hospitals, routinely targeting emergency medical vehicles, and killing at least 627 healthcare workers.
