Digital Health Talks - Changemakers Focused on Fixing Healthcare
Healthcare leaders face mounting challenges: rising costs, staff burnout, and pressure to improve patient outcomes. Traditional solutions often fall short. However, groundbreaking WHO research reveals a powerful, evidence-based approach through arts integration. When strategically implemented, arts programs reduce hospital stays by up to one day, decrease medication needs, and improve staff retention. NYC Health + Hospitals' 7,000-piece collection and global initiatives like the HoME study demonstrate how arts integration delivers measurable ROI while transforming care environments. Discover how arts in medicine programs are transforming healthcare through evidence-based interventions. Joe Desiderio explores the groundbreaking WHO-backed research, strategic partnerships, and measurable clinical outcomes of integrating arts programs - from personalized music therapy to large-scale murals - in healthcare settings.Implement evidence-based arts programs to reduce hospital stays and medication usage, directly impacting your bottom lineDeploy targeted arts initiatives that measurably reduce burnout and increase workplace satisfactionCreate healing environments that improve clinical outcomes through strategic art placement and programmingBuild stronger community connections through participatory arts programs and local artist partnershipsLeverage WHO-backed research and global studies to build compelling business cases for arts investmentJoseph Desiderio, Chief Connector, connectXrMegan Antonelli, Chief Executive Officer, HealthIMPACT
No, I Know's Make a Difference Series continues. Across America there are beach towns and resorts areas filled with restaurants and hotels that can create an incredible amount of waste and food waste. Ocean City, Maryland is no different. What can be done about this food waste? Lets find out. Segment One: Josh Chamberlain is the visionary founder of Go Green OC, an environmental non-profit committed to transforming Ocean City, Maryland into the first zero waste resort town in the United States. Armed with a background in marketing, Josh has always harbored a deep passion for environmental preservation and a profound dedication to safeguarding the planet for future generations. In 2018, driven by an unwavering commitment, Josh transformed this passion into a compelling mission by establishing Go Green OC. Under Josh's leadership, the organization has achieved remarkable milestones in the quest for a cleaner, healthier planet. This includes spearheading a citywide compost program that has diverted over 650,000 pounds of food waste. Segment Two: Prince Street Elementary's Rhythm & Roots was founded by Physical Education, Health and World Music Teacher, Dustin Thomas. Three students unexpectedly lost their father during the 2018-2019 school year. Mr. Thomas could see a change in their schoolwork and behavior, and he knew he had to find a way to connect with them. Knowing their father played drums, he created an after-school music program, Rhythm and Roots, to engage these struggling scholars and strengthen their connection to their father's legacy. The program began with a whistle, drumsticks, and paint buckets donated by a local paint store. Many Prince Street scholars asked to participate as they heard what was happening. Mr. Thomas began writing grant applications to obtain funding for additional equipment. Rhythm and Roots became a program with local, state, and national recognition in many outlets, including Inspire One Magazine, SHAPE Maryland, Hip Hop Public Health, and the NBC Today Show.

Eric Pliner: Difficult Decisions Eric Pliner is chief executive officer of YSC Consulting. He has designed and implemented leadership strategy in partnership with some of the world's best-known CEOs and organizations. Eric's writing has been featured in Harvard Business Review, Fortune, Forbes, and Fast Company. A member of the Dramatists' Guild of America, Eric is co-author of the U.S. National Standards for Health Education and Spooky Dog & the Teen-Age Gang Mysteries (with Amy Rhodes), an Off-Broadway theatrical parody of television cartoons for adults. He is a board director with Hip Hop Public Health. He is also the author of Difficult Decisions: How Leaders Make the Right Call with Insight, Integrity, and Empathy*. In this conversation, Eric and I discuss the difficult and sometimes awkward moments when we engage other stakeholders in our decisions. We explore the language to use when discussing a stakeholder's role in a decision. Plus, Eric details how to establish clear expectations about involvement in decisions to avoid sending messages that we otherwise don't intend. Key Points Clarify who you will engage and how you intend to do so. Before discussing a decision with a stakeholder, explain how the decision is going to be made. Make it clear if you're offering them a views, a voice, a vote, or a veto. Standardize your individual and team processes for decision-making. Ask the stakeholder for input — and go deeper with a second or third question to appreciate what's behind what they've said. Remind stakeholders how the decision will be made when you conclude. Don't underestimated the importance of this step. Interview Notes Download my interview notes in PDF format (free membership required).

Dr. James Noble is a BFD neurologist at Columbia in New York City. But as a college student in the 90's, Jamie Noble hung out at Lucy's Record Shop to feed the love of live music that's clearly part of his DNA. Jamie remembers a lot about Lucy's - the bands he saw (Bugskull, Low, Blonde Redhead, Crop Circle Hoax, etc.), the 7” records he bought, the time everybody got kicked out and had to watch Doo Rag play their show on the sidewalk, and the one time he played a show there with his band, Lepus. Music and the arts have informed a lot of what Jamie does. He's been taping shows since 1998 and his recordings are housed at the University of Georgia in the archives of Henry Owings of Chunklet. With his colleague, Dr. Olajide Williams, he started what has become the Hip Hop Public Health fleet of programs, working closely with Sesame Street animators, producer Artie Green, and musicians like Doug E. Fresh, Easy A.D. of the Cold Crush Brothers, DMC, and Chuck D. He also founded a non-profit organization, Arts & Minds, which promotes well-being for dementia patients and their caregivers via art-centered, museum-based programs and experiences in upper Manhattan. As a neurologist, Dr.Noble specializes in Alzheimer's disease and related dementias and has just released a book, “Navigating Life with Dementia” (part of the Brain & Life series, Oxford University Press/American Academy of Neurology). It's a joy to listen to Jamie talk about his time at Lucy's and his love of music.

The Biden administration has promised to make Covid-19 vaccines available to all US adults by May 1st, but getting a vaccine to those who need them most is still an uphill battle. Black, Indigenous, Latinx, and Pacific Islander Americans are more than twice as likely to die from Covid-19, but they're not the ones getting the vaccine.. In this episode, Laura interviews three public health experts about the challenges of eradicating Covid-19 in the face of widespread vaccine hesitancy. Why are some Americans resisting vaccination, and what is being done to change their minds? Are public health officials listening to the needs of the community? Laura and guests explore the roots of vaccine hesitancy, methods for rebuilding public trust in public health, and hip hop as a tool for outreach to vulnerable communities. Guests: Dr. Oxiris Barbot, Professor; Terry McGovern chair of the Department of Population and Family Health and the Program on Global Health Justice and Governance at Columbia University's Mailman School of Public Health; and Dr. Olajide Williams founder of Hip Hop Public Health.Full episode notes along with related episodes, related articles and more are free and posted at https://Patreon.com/theLFShow Please consider becoming a member for as little as $3 or $5 a month like a newspaper or magazine subscription to keep this content accessible to radio and TV viewers and podcast subscribers.

In the UK alone, more than 20 million people have had a first dose of a Covid 19 vaccine, and the government hopes to speed up the roll out by offering every adult a first dose by the end of July. But the word “offering” may be doing a lot of work in that sentence. Not everyone is taking up that offer - and there is a lot of talk about lower take-up rates of people in who are not both British and white - sometimes lumped together with the acronym BAME - Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic. In this week's How To Vaccinate The World, Tim Harford ask what is behind this trend, and what can be done to correct it with his guests Imam Qari Muhammad Asim, Chair, Mosques & Imams National Advisory Board, Dr Habib Naqvi - Director, NHS Race and Health Observatory and Dr Onyi Okonkwo, GP and clinical lead for BAME network at Birmingham and Solihull CCG, Producers: Sandra Kanthal and Beth Sagar- Fenton Listener questions can be sent to: vaccine@bbc.co.uk What Are Vaccines and Why Do They Work?

The following is the full uncut interview with Dr. Olajide Williams. Portions of his interview were featured in our recent episode "Building Public Trust For Public Health". The episode is airing on Public Television or you can watch it HERE or Listen and Download as a podcast. The Covid-19 vaccine has emergency FDA approval, but how effective will it be if there is no public trust in our public health system? In this exclusive interview, Columbia University professor and neurologist Dr. Olajide Williams offers one solution to fill this gaping trust deficit — culturally adapted message science. He is the founder of Hip Hop Public Health, which employs music and culturally-tailored media to improve health literacy and transform health outcomes for vulnerable communities. He argues the only way to develop public trust is to bring the people to the table. Public health officials must fully recognize the harm done to Black and brown bodies, from forced sterilizations to the Tuskegee syphilis experiment, and the impact it's had on collective memory. "If we do not get this right, we are not going to defeat this ‘vaccine hesitancy' surrounding this virus, and we will have great inequities persist because they don't trust the process — and no one has tried to penetrate their minds in a way that they trust and in a way that they can embrace. That's why it's important to have a ‘rights based' approach to vaccine distribution." — Dr. Olajide Williams
