Our culture has normalized medical birth.  Over the last 100 or so years, somehow we have been convinced that the best way to have a baby is in a hospitaltal with a tube in your arm and your back so you're numb from the waist down and some monitors strapped to your belly while you lay on your back in a bed.  Our ancestors would roll their eyes.  Anyway -- if you DON'T want that kind of birth, but you are giving birth in the hospital, you're very likely going to face some very real pushback that is going to make it harder for you than it should be.  Information is power though, so in today's episode we're going to address the realities of hospital birth and help you prepare.   The first-ever Your Birth, God's Way Christian Childbirth Education Class is filling up!  Less than 2 weeks until the first class!  Once we're full, doors will close so don't be left out in the cold.  Sign up today!   SHOW NOTES   ** Sign up for the FIRST EVER Your Birth, God's Way LIVE Childbirth Education Course HERE --> https://yourbirthgodsway.thrivecart.com/livecourse/     Other Helpful Links:   Sign up for email updates Here   Be heard!

We are talking Irritable Bowel Syndrome or IBS for short today and I hope the title grabbed your attention because this topic is one I love to cover and by that I mean debunking the diagnosis. IBS only needs symptoms to reach a "diagnosis" and it comes from a process of elimination and not actually pinpointing what's actually going on. If you know me, this annoys me to not end which is part of the reason why I left the hospital setting and I hope through today's episode you'll understand the concept of IBS from a better lens.   Time Stamps:   (0:42) It Beats the Shit Out of Me Diagnosis (2:40) What's Not Taught in a Hospital Setting (4:10) My Experience with IBS (10:23) Of Course the “Solution” was Laxatives (13:57) Tubes Were Put Everywhere (18:10) “Wishing You Well” (22:00) Ancient and The Original Practices (24:00) Bowel Movements and What's “Normal” (28:50) My Formal Educational Journey (34:48) Quick Rant on Mold (41:55) Do You Have IBS? ---------------------------- Follow Me on Instagram! @tayloredwellbeing ---------------------------- Click Here to Apply to Work with Me or visit taylorsappington.com/application

Although the crazy hours and high pressure environment that characterize hospital-based practice will not be everybody's preference, there is nowhere else that Dr. Gabriella Tehrany would rather be utilizing her OMS skills. For the past 12 years (other than during the COVID-19 lockdown) the longest time that Gabreilla has spent away from orthognathic surgery is two weeks, and as a result, she has acquired a wealth of wisdom relating to the field, much of which she shares with us in today's insightful episode. Gabriella offers advice around looking after your patients' wellbeing and, just as importantly, your own. Our conversation covers a range of topics, from the value of teamwork to the protocol which led to an 88% same day discharge rate post orthognathic surgery at Gabriella's hospital. In order to choose the direction you want to take as an oral surgeon there are numerous factors to take into consideration, and, as is Gabriella's mantra, this episode will inspire you to “figure it out!”Key Points From This Episode:An overview of what Gabriella's journey to becoming the Southern California Regional Chief of OMS has looked like.Perks of working as part of a Kaizer practice in a hospital setting. Factors to take into consideration before choosing the setting you are going to work in. Experiences Gabriella had in different practices while she was a resident. The importance of listening to your patients' desires as an orthognathic surgeon.Why Gabriella never shows her patients soft tissue renderings prior to their surgery.How Gabriella looks after her body, and advice she gives to all residents coming through her practice. Gabriella's involvement with students at UCLA.People who make up the team that Gabriella is currently working with.Value that lies in doing surgery with assistants. The protocol that Gabriella and her anaesthesiology team implemented which led to an 88% same-day discharge rate after surgery. How patients' perceptions of being in a hospital changed after the pandemic began.Gabriella's experience of working in a COVID ward. A rapid fire round with Gabriella.Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Dr. Gabriella Tehrany Email— gabriella.m.tehrany@kp.org The Plant Paradox — https://www.amazon.com/Plant-Paradox-Dangers-Healthy-Disease/dp/006242713X How Not to Die — https://www.amazon.com/How-Not-Die-Discover-Scientifically/dp/1250066115 Dr. Grant Stucki Email — grantstucki@gmail.comDr. Grant Stucki Phone — 720-441-6059

Sometimes health care is all about location, location, location: Patients can save money by using ambulatory surgery centers instead of hospital outpatient departments, according to new UnitedHealth Group research.

In this next episode I chat to Amy who talks me through her two pregnancies and births. Amy's first experience wasn't what any women should be subjected too. She was unsupported not only through the birth of her little boy but also breastfeeding. Amy & her husband decided the time was right to start trying for another when their son Nikolai was 18 months old. Four months into her second pregnancy, Amy was flooded with anxiety as a result of her previous experience. Thankfully, she was supported by everyone she came in contact with from that point (bar one!). Her little girl moved into breech position at 38 weeks gestation. I will let you enjoy all the details, I wont share anymore but I will say, she found her voice. It was the most incredible, hands off, vaginal breech birth surrounded by a medical team who no doubt looked on in awe Enjoy! -------------------------------------------------------------- This episode is brought to you by @mamashospitalbag an Irish brand providing luxury hospital bag bundles aswell as gift boxes to new and expectant mother's.

Endocrine disorders, specifically for pediatric patients, pose complex considerations in care based on the type of disorder and an individual's course of therapy. For this reason, Children's Mercy manages programs across the region, providing endocrinology care from western Kansas to south central Missouri. When a pediatric patient with an endocrine disorder requires emergency assistance in the pre-hospital setting, rapid intervention is necessary. In this segment, Children's Mercy Endocrinologist, Dr. Ryan McDonough, will offer life-saving guidance on treating this population of pediatric patients.

On today's show I chat with Lahni about the births of her three daughters. Lahni's first pregnancy ended early, just shy of 35 weeks, when her waters broke and she was induced to 'get things going'. Although feeling traumatised by that birth experience, she says it was her spiritual awakening. Choosing to homebirth her second and third babies, she speaks about unexpected anxieties that arose and the contrast between her births. Instagram: @wildflower_journeys

We are talking Irritable Bowel Syndrome or IBS for short today and I hope the title grabbed your attention because this topic is one I love to cover and by that I mean debunking the diagnosis. IBS only needs symptoms to reach a "diagnosis" and it comes from a process of elimination and not actually pinpointing what's actually going on. If you know me, this annoys me to not end which is part of the reason why I left the hospital setting and I hope through today's episode you'll understand the concept of IBS from a better lens.   Time Stamps:   (0:42) It Beats the Shit Out of Me Diagnosis (2:40) What's Not Taught in a Hospital Setting (4:10) My Experience with IBS (10:23) Of Course the “Solution” was Laxatives (13:57) Tubes Were Put Everywhere (18:10) “Wishing You Well” (22:00) Ancient and The Original Practices (24:00) Bowel Movements and What's “Normal” (28:50) My Formal Educational Journey (34:48) Quick Rant on Mold (41:55) Do You Have IBS?  ----------- Restore Your Digestive Health, Reset Your Relationship with Food, and Enhance Your Overall Wellbeing in Just 5 Days for Free by Signing up for my 5 Days Free Your Gut Challenge  ----------- Follow Me on Instagram

In this episode, Gordon talks with David Sturgess, LPC about making the transition from working in a hospital setting to full-time private practice. David was able to make that transition over time by starting part-time with his private practice working just a few evenings a week. David shares how he was able to decide when to go full-time with his practice. Also, Gordon and David discuss understanding the financial leap into private practice. Start part-time before completely committing to quitting your day job. Then, they talk about why outsourcing your website may save you money in the long run. Meet David Sturgess David Sturgess is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Marietta, Georgia. He owns Foundry Counseling, LLC just off the Marietta Square. He is a National Board Certified Counselor (NCC) and holds the Certified Professional Counselor Supervisor (CPCS) credentials in Georgia. For the last decade, he has been a clinician in Georgia's short- to long-term Psychiatric Residential Treatment Facilities (PRTFs). During the last two years of working in the hospital settings, he operated his private practice part-time. In the Spring of 2019, he left the treatment facility environment to do private practice full-time. His experience and focus have been with adolescents and their families learning how to cope and heal from trauma, self-harm, and life-threatening behaviors, as well as psychosis. He is intensively trained in TF-CBT, Trauma-Informed Care and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. He facilitates training in these areas for different agencies and churches in Georgia, to empower people to identify when someone close to them needs a more personal level of care and connect with mental health professionals. In private practice, he works with individuals and families to build peace and confidence in their lives as they cope with the daily challenges of their needs, as well as the caregivers supporting the client. Aside from adolescents and families, he works with 20-30-year-olds in learning how to manage the stressors of leaving college and creating their new lifestyles; as well as helping men learn strategies to manage the unique needs they carry and often do not find a confidential place to work. Understanding the Financial Leap David and Gordon spent a few mastermind sessions talking about this topic. Handle your personal finances as well as setting up business finances. Minimize the debt risk to your home, not in terms of your mortgage, but all of the monthly payments that you need to make. The transition will take your income from a guaranteed paycheck to a variable income, where one month can be significant and the next month not so much – you will still have those payments you need to make. Get rid of as much debt as possible on the personal side. There are a lot of great therapists out there, but they don't know how to run a business, so their private practices have failed. While on the other hand, there are a lot of great business owners, but they are not therapists. Starting Private Practice Part-Time To limit financial liability, David suggests starting a private practice part-time so you can begin building a financial buffer while still having a guaranteed paycheck. Make sure you are still in good standing with your employer. David was not prepared to be full-time in private practice financially; he did it on the side to pay down student loan debt. He recognized that his employer would not give him the raise to help him do that. As David's first night filled up, he moved into doing his private practice two nights a week. It is one of those things you have to weigh in the beginning stages of private practice. If you are working a full-time job, and you depend on that income, don't quit your day job too quickly. Be prepared financially to make the transition. Outsourcing Websites David's website broke the other day; it's a thorn in his side. When people start a business, they often cannot afford to pay someone to run their website, so they decide to bootstrap it. There are pros and cons to this method. You will find yourself in a situation where you cannot financially afford it. The amount of time that David has wasted trying to do it himself and it not working, probably would have been better off paying someone to run it for him. When you outsource things that are sucking your time, that's the time you can turn into seeing a client and gaining revenue. Skills Groups David brought on another therapist to his practice; they worked together at his old employer. They have a similar skill set and experience in a hospital setting, so it was a good fit. Having the opportunity to do the skills groups are a great way to increase revenue. Multiple people in the same room are paying an individual price to participate in the group. David is not losing the hour just because there are two therapists in the same place. By the time they split the revenue, they are making the same they would in an hour. Plus, they get to serve more people at the same time. The Benefits of A Mastermind Group Gordon finds people are hungry for is a way to have a community that is a little more than social media. The mastermind group that he runs is limited to 6 or 8 people. It is a way for people to get together to talk about their practices and struggles. David was recently part of the mastermind group; Gordon's next group will be starting in September. To sign up, click HERE.

Research in dementia care has traditionally examined community and nursing home settings, leaving a gap in research on care for dementia patients during hospital stays. After identifying a need for improvement in caring for hospital patients with dementia, our guest developed a new approach that helps hospital staff better recognize dementia and address it. Guest: Dr. Andrea Gilmore-Bykovskyi, PhD, RN, Researcher, Assistant Professor of Nursing at the University of Wisconsin-Madison

This episode features Claudia Virdun (Faculty of Health, University of Technology Sydney (UTS), Ultimo, NSW, Australia) who describes a study which aimed to gain a richer and deeper understanding of elements of end-of-life care that consumers consider most important within the hospital setting. The study was a meta-synthesis (review of all the qualitative research on a given subject) of consumer narratives reporting what they considered important elements of end of life care. Sixteen studies were included. Synthesis yielded 7 patient and 10 family themes including 6 common themes: (1) expert care, (2) effective communication and shared decision-making, (3) respectful and compassionate care, (4) adequate environment for care, (5) family involvement and (6) financial affairs. Maintenance of sense of self was the additional patient theme, while the four additional family themes were as follows: (1) maintenance of patient safety, (2) preparation for death, (3) care extending to the family after patient death and (4) enabling patient choice at the end of life. The take home message is that patients and carers have been consistent in the factors that they consider important in end of life care. Systems are needed to enable optimal end-of-life care, in accordance with consumer priorities, and embedded into routine hospital care. Full paper available from: http://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/0269216316673547 If you would like to record a podcast about your published (or accepted) Palliative Medicine paper, please contact Dr Amara Nwosu: anwosu@liverpool.ac.uk

Background: Key goals in the treatment of CAP include early response to treatment and achievement of clinical stability. The US FDA recommends early response endpoints (72 hours after initiation of treatment) in clinical trials for the treatment of community-acquired bacterial pneumonia. REACH (REtrospective Study to Assess the Clinical Management of Patients With Moderate-to-Severe Complicated Skin and Soft Tissue Infections [cSSTI] or CAP in the Hospital Setting) was a retrospective observational study, providing current data on the clinical management and resource burden of CAP in real-life settings in European hospitals. This analysis reviews the characteristics and outcomes of patients showing early positive response to treatment (time to clinical stability [TCS] ≤ 4 days, as assessed by Halm's criteria) compared with patients with later positive response [TCS] > 4 days). Methods: Patients were adults, hospitalized with CAP (2010-2011) and requiring in-hospital treatment with intravenous antibiotics. Results: Of the 2039 patients included in REACH, 585 (28.7%) had TCS assessed by Halm's criteria: 332 (56.8%) showed early response (median 3.0 days), and 253 (43.2%) showed later response to treatment (median 7.0 days). Use of Halm's criteria varied across participating countries, ranging from 0% (Belgium) to 49.1% (UK). Patient characteristics and relevant medical history were similar between the two groups. There were no notable differences in initial antibiotic therapy between groups, except that more early responders had been treated with amoxicillin-clavulanate and amoxicillin monotherapy (22.6%; 7.5%, respectively) than later responders (5.9%; 1.2%, respectively). Initial treatment modification and re-infection or recurrences were less frequent in early responders compared with later responders (14.2% and 3.3% vs. 34.8% and 5.9%, respectively). Early responders had a shorter duration of hospitalization (mean 9.4 +/- SD 7.0; median 8.0 days vs. mean 15.6 +/- SD 10.5; median 12.0 days, respectively), lower rate of ICU admission (3.3% vs. 21.3%) and shorter duration of ICU stay (mean 6.2 +/- SD 5.7; median 4.0 days vs. mean 10.4 +/- SD 10.1; median 8.0 days, respectively) compared with later responders. Mortality was low in both groups. Conclusions: Achieving early clinical stabilization in CAP (≤ 4 days) is associated with improved outcomes, lower requirement for initial treatment modification or readmission and lower resource use, compared with a later response.

Biological Contamination of Insulin Pens in a Hospital Setting Author Michelle Herdman discusses with William Zellmer, Contributing Editor for AJHP, a study in which insulin pens returned to the inpatient pharmacies of two hospitals were examined for the presence of nucleated cells, red blood cells, and hemoglobin. Positive results would suggest the potential for transmission of infectious agents among patients if a single pen cartridge were used for multiple patients. The article under discussion appears in the July 15, 2013, issue of AJHP. For more information visit www.ajhp.org.

This unit considers the type of care offered in hospitals, using Leeds General Hospital as a case study. The unit looks at the people who have roles within the hospital, how they interact with each other and patients and what they consider to be 'care'. The different approaches and contributions to care by doctors and nurses are explored and patients give their perspective on the care they receive. This study unit is just one of many that can be found on LearningSpace, part of OpenLearn, a collection of open educational resources from The Open University.
