Looking 4 Healing Radio with Dr. Benjamin Benulis – HHS Secretary Robert F.

Chief nursing officer Rhonda Collins discusses her article "Nurse-initiated protocols for sepsis: a strategic imperative for patient care and hospital operations." Rhonda explains why sepsis, the leading cause of death in U.S. hospitals and a $62 billion annual burden, demands the same urgency as stroke and STEMI. She highlights the power of nurse-initiated standing orders to speed recognition and treatment, reduce ED congestion, improve outcomes and cut costs. Drawing on real-world results from Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady Health System, she shows how standardized sepsis protocols supported by FDA-cleared technology reduced mortality by 39 percent, shortened length of stay and saved thousands per patient. Rhonda emphasizes that national standardization, objective tools and empowering nurses to practice at the top of their license are essential to making sepsis the "third S" in emergency care.

In this episode we cover the sneaky phenomenon of golden handcuffs in healthcare—those perks, paychecks, and benefits that look incredible on paper but can leave you feeling stuck in a job that no longer serves you.Whether it's a schedule you fought hard for, the lure of student loan forgiveness, or the prestige of working at a big-name institution, these “benefits” can sometimes act more like shackles than steppingstones. Tracy breaks down:What golden handcuffs are and how they show up in medicine.How to assess your situation—mild, moderate, or severe.The sustainability question: is it worth staying for loan forgiveness, or is the cost too high?Practical strategies to pad your safety net, identify what you truly value, and start building an escape plan.Real-life inspiration from clinicians who've made bold pivots toward more fulfilling careers.If you've ever felt trapped by the very perks that were supposed to keep you happy, this episode is for you.

Physician leader Janet A. Jokela discusses its article "Collective action as a path to patient-centered care." The piece reflects on the evolution of physician unions since the 1980s, beginning with housestaff associations focused on scut work and duty hours, through the Libby Zion case that transformed resident supervision, to today's growing movement of resident and employed physician unions across major institutions. The article explains how administrative burdens, loss of professional autonomy, and physician burnout have fueled interest in collective action not to abandon patients, but to protect their care. Key insights from ACP's policy paper Empowering Physicians through Collective Action include the need to ensure physicians have a voice in governance, safeguard them from retaliation, and prioritize patient access to safe, affordable, high-quality care. Listeners will come away with a deeper understanding of why collective empowerment may ultimately strengthen both physician well-being and the patient-physician relationship.

Following the Trump administration's aid cuts, two-thirds of Mercy Corps' US-funded programs have been rescinded.

With a lifelong passion for nursing, Donna Steigleder's journey began in her childhood and evolved into a career in healthcare, where she gained a wealth of experience across various medical settings. Her personal caregiving story started early, as she recognized and advocated for her daughter's mental health needs at a time when such issues were often dismissed. Despite resistance from family and medical professionals, Donna's persistence ensured her daughter received the care she needed, ultimately enabling her to thrive as an adult and nurse herself.Donna's caregiving responsibilities expanded over the years, encompassing her first husband, who struggled with denial about his MS diagnosis, and later her mother, who battled cancer. Balancing full-time work, Donna managed complex medical care at home, often feeling isolated and emotionally compartmentalized to cope with the relentless demands. Her experience as a director of employee relations gave her unique insight into the challenges working caregivers face, and she advocated for flexibility and support within her organization.Recognizing the lack of accessible resources for caregivers, Donna created the “Healthcare to Home Care” website, a comprehensive hub for practical information and community connections. She also launched the “Compassion Mission” initiative, encouraging churches to support caregivers and those in need within their congregations. Donna's story is not only one of personal sacrifice and strength but also of transforming her experiences into resources and advocacy to uplift others navigating the caregiving journey.About Donna:Donna Steigleder, a native of Henry, Virginia, began her career with a passion for writing and leadership, graduating in the top 1% of her high school class. After earning her nursing diploma, she obtained her Bachelor of Science in Nursing. Her first job as a nurse clinician provided a broad range of experience, leading to her promotion to Director of Human Resources. After a divorce, she became a single mother and took on a second job to support her family. Following her marriage to Lynn Steigleder in 1997, she transitioned to working from home to care for him while continuing her HR duties until her retirement in 2018. Now retired, Donna has combined her personal caregiving experience with her professional healthcare background to create Healthcare to Homecare, a website offering resources for family caregivers. She is also an advocate for churches to provide support to the sick and needy in their communities.Thank you to sponsor: CareScoutSupport the showConfessions of a Reluctant Caregiver Sisterhood of Care, LLC Website: www.confessionsofareluctantcaregiver.com Like us on Facebook!

Retirement anxiety does not discriminate based on wealth. Even multi-million-dollar portfolios are not immune to the fear of running out of money. This creates one of retirement's greatest paradoxes: having enough but feeling like you don't.When clients hear they can safely spend $150,000 a year in retirement, many hesitate. They remember their first job making $30,000 and struggle to shift from a lifetime of saving to a season of spending. Research shows wealthy retirees spend 24 percent less than they safely could, simply because of this mindset.Healthcare adds to the anxiety. Retiring before Medicare can mean $20,000 to $30,000 a year in costs for couples. Even after 65, Fidelity estimates a couple needs $315,000 saved for healthcare alone. No surprise that many retirees keep 10 to 20 percent of their portfolio in cash, even though that choice limits long-term growth.Ironically, spending often decreases with age while income from Social Security and investments increases. This creates a cushion that may support higher equity allocations later in life, which is the opposite of what conventional wisdom suggests. Yet fear lingers. A 2023 EBRI survey found one in three high-net-worth retirees still worry about outliving their money.If you want clarity about your retirement picture, try our free planning tool or reach out to explore how Root Financial can help you make the most of what you have worked so hard to build.-Advisory services are offered through Root Financial Partners, LLC, an SEC-registered investment adviser.

Health care executive Ashish Mandavia discusses his article "Why U.S. health care pricing is so confusing—and how to fix it." Ashish explains how systemic misaligned incentives, opaque insurance practices, and weak enforcement drive up patient costs and mistrust in the health care system. He outlines the emotional and financial toll of surprise medical bills and argues for stronger accountability, technology-driven transparency, and shared responsibility across hospitals, insurers, providers, and patients. Ashish offers listeners practical takeaways, such as the role of digital tools in cost clarity, the need for enforcement that closes loopholes, and how patients can advocate for fairer, more predictable care.

Urologist Fara Bellows discusses her article "When recurrent UTIs might actually be bladder cancer." Fara shares the story of a 91-year-old patient whose recurrent urinary infections masked an underlying bladder cancer diagnosis, illustrating how easily symptoms can be misattributed. She explains risk factors such as smoking, prior radiation, and occupational exposures, and highlights the alarming statistics that nearly 20,000 women will be diagnosed with bladder cancer in 2025, with close to 5,000 deaths. Fara emphasizes the dangers of delayed diagnosis in women due to symptom overlap with common conditions, and she outlines the three key diagnostic tools—urine cytology, imaging, and cystoscopy—that can save lives when used early. Listeners will learn why vigilance in primary care, proactive referrals, and patient advocacy are crucial to ensuring timely and accurate diagnoses.

There is a seismic shift—not in real estate, but in a sector that will fundamentally reshape how we think about how health care services are delivered. That in turn will have an impact on the needs for real estate in a health care setting.Family medicine has evolved. When I was a child, the family doctor was a self employed professional. Their office had one name on the door, and behind the waiting room was a sliding glass window for the receptionist, who often also doubled as the doctor's assistant. That model is completely obsolete and has been replaced by the family health team clinic which has several owners, numerous associates, nurses, a nurse practitioner, and even other services like a dietitian, a blood lab, an imaging lab. All of these things under one roof in the name of efficiency. Increasingly, these clinics are not owner operated, but instead are associated with a larger healthcare provider. But just like technology has disrupted retail and media, it's now coming for healthcare.The first wave was simple telehealth—video calls with your doctor. This was multiplied out of necessity during the pandemic. That was a good start. It saved a trip for a quick follow-up or a prescription refill. But it is limited. The game changer is the technology that brings diagnostic equipment to the patient. Some health care systems have already adopted the technology. Somewhere between 60-80% of office visits can be handled by telehealth, augmented with the diagnostic equipment. The change is coming, and it is clear as day. Commercial real estate has taken a beating since the pandemic. Medical office has been one of the remaining segments of stability in the office market. I can't tell you how quickly the technology will penetrate the market. I predict that within the next five years, today's existing technology will achieve sufficient market penetration that we will see a significant reduction in medical office footprints. ------------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1)   iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613)   Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com)   LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce)   YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso)   Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com)  **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital)   Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)

Three of the biggest lobbies in Washington DC are sugar, dairy and meat. We should be forgiven for thinking that federal guidance to fry foods in beef tallow, drink more whole milk, and put sugar in Coca-Cola, are part of a corporate conspiracy of coercion to further undermine public health. On a positive note, more people are finally recognizing that America's health problems are a direct result of the excessive consumption of not only the above mentioned products, but of additives and chemicals, compounded by massive portion sizes, encouragement to eat additional meals, and sophisticated psychological techniques that are employed to mislead and gaslight the consumer into believing YOLO.*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

Did you know: the original Hippocratic Oath is a vow to other healing gods? Are you searching for true healing, but feeling lost in the complexities of the modern healthcare system? Do you sense a disconnect between physical treatments and a deeper, spiritual well-being? Melia unfolds a fascinating discussion about the original Hippocratic Oath, the cornerstone of medical ethics, to reveal its ancient origins - as a vow to other healing gods. Many do not understand or view this oath as a spiritual contract, a verbal promise made to higher powers; and NOT God. This eye-opening podcast episode doesn't advocate for rejecting modern medicine entirely, but debunks the importance of addressing spiritual components of our health as well. Often, many wounded souls are neglected due to the healthcare system being primarily focused on physical symptoms, insurance reimbursements, and capital-driven!   Podcast Chapters: **Chapter 1: Introduction & Authentic Healing (00:00:00-00:05:00)** * Introduces the podcast and hosts. * Focus on faith-based healing. * Rejection of temporary solutions. **Chapter 2: Unveiling the Occult in Healthcare (00:05:00-00:15:00)** * Exploring the origins of things. * Introduction of the "Deceptive Healthcare" course. * The meaning of "occult" – hidden influences. **Chapter 3: The Hippocratic Oath: A Spiritual Contract (00:15:00-00:25:00)** * Ancient roots and vows to healing gods. * The oath as a spiritual promise. * Evolution and modifications of the oath. **Chapter 4: Faith vs. Physicians: Biblical Perspectives (00:25:00-00:35:00)** * Biblical examples of limitations of solely relying on medicine. * King Asa and the woman with the bleeding issue Scripture references. **Chapter 5: Personal Testimony & Spiritual Neglect (00:35:00-00:45:00)** * Melia's personal experience. * The importance of addressing spiritual issues. * The Nightingale Pledge and its comparison to the Hippocratic Oath. **Chapter 6: God First: Examining Medical Vows (00:45:00-00:55:00)** * Questioning vows to ancient gods. * Exodus 20:3 and the implications. * Advocating for a balanced approach. **Chapter 7:  Systemic Issues & Spiritual Health (00:55:00-01:05:00)** * Peek into medical system's focus of health. * Neglect of spiritual and emotional aspects. * Prioritizing faith in God and not man. **Chapter 8: Blessing & Closing (01:05:00-01:10:00)** * Learn more in depth with Melia's "Deceptive Healthcare" course. * Call to invest and equip yourself. * Blessing from Melia.   Blessings xo- Melia's Courses -> https://meliadiana.com/vertical-relationship-academy Melia's Services -> https://meliadiana.com/our-services Melia's Books ->https://meliadiana.com/books Melia's Prophetic Mentorship-> https://meliadiana.com/vertical-ambassador-mentorship  

We live in a culture obsessed with treating symptoms, weight gain, fatigue, high blood pressure, brain fog, poor sleep, as if each were an isolated problem. But what if these struggles aren't the problem at all? What if they're just the flashing check engine lights on the dashboard of your body, pointing to a deeper issue that's been hiding in plain sight: Metabolic Disease. In this episode, Dr. JC Doornick pulls back the curtain on why nearly every chronic health crisis in America today — from obesity and Type 2 diabetes to heart disease, hypertension, and even dementia — can be traced back to metabolic dysfunction. He explains how the healthcare industry profits from keeping us stuck in a never-ending cycle of pills, injections, and quick fixes, rather than empowering us to address the root cause upstream. You'll also learn about Metabolic Synchronization — a practical, upstream approach that helps realign the body and mind through five key foundations: Proper diet & nutrition Proper movement & muscle development Proper sleep Proper education & mental detox Proper community & support This episode is a wake-up call: the lights are flashing, and the choice is yours. Will you keep patching symptoms downstream, or will you finally pop the hood and reclaim control of your health, your mind, and your future?
