Building Multidisciplinary Consensus on Inpatient Xylazine Management through Clinical Protocols Substance Use and Addiction Journal Xylazine in the unregulated drug supply produces significant morbidity and this paper describes utilizing a multidisciplinary team to develop protocols for inpatient setting to manage patients with xylazine exposure. Protocols developed included use of scheduled clonidine or tizanidine to manage withdrawal with hold parameters. As there is no FDA approved immunoassay screen, they recommended assuming xylazine exposure in areas with high prevalence and limited testing. The team also developed guidelines for cases in which surgical interventions would be considered, when to culture wounds, antibiotic usage, and consistent wound care based on size and clinical characteristics. In addition, they developed standardized discharge instructions, including referral to substance use disorder treatment, harm reduction and education around xylazine test strip use.     Read this issue of the ASAM Weekly Subscribe to the ASAM Weekly Visit ASAM

The difficult admissions are the generally weak, unable to walk with no acute findings. They typically do not uncover any acute findings while in the hospitalIn the ED, we can probably do a better job of involving some of our resources like social work to really give the patient and their family a better understanding of what admission will and won't accomplish for themPart of the America culture does put us in unique situations as the elderly often do not live with their children anymore. Family live far apart and often cannot help each other when in needNo one blames the patient for the situation they are in, but we want to find the best solution to serve themIM deals with the limitations of insurance much more than we do in the EDUltimately, each hospital group needs to establish a culture.

Long before hashtags and apps, patient mentoring thrived quietly in community rooms and support circles—offering emotional validation and practical guidance where clinical care left off. In this episode, Chris Boyer and Reed Smith trace the evolution of peer-to-peer support in healthcare, and how digital platforms have transformed it from local to limitless. They dive into: The History of Peer Mentoring – From 1970s cancer groups to HIV/AIDS buddy programs, peer support has long filled the gaps in clinical care through empathy, shared experience, and trust. The Digital Shift – How platforms like PatientsLikeMe, Reddit, Inspire, and even TikTok created scalable, searchable communities for patients—especially those navigating chronic or stigmatized conditions. Why Health Systems Lag Behind – Compliance fears, cultural resistance, and underinvestment have limited provider involvement, even as patients build robust peer networks on their own. Opportunities for Integration – Peer support could enhance onboarding, post-discharge care, chronic condition engagement, and even brand trust—if health systems partner, not compete. Later in the episode, they're joined by Paul Hoffman, founder of InTandem Health, who shares insights on launching digital peer mentoring platforms—from clinical impact and marketing value to the surprising role peer programs can play in fundraising and health system transformation. In 2025, the most powerful engagement may not be provider-to-patient—but patient-to-patient.

When I hit bottom in my descent through the hell of addiction and mental illness, I did what many modern spiritual seekers do — I turned to the god of Google, typing in the search bar “Inpatient Dual Diagnosis Treatment Centers.” In less desperate times, I carefully peruse several entries, note sources, and examine websites. But desperate times call for desperate measures, so I called the number at the top of the screen. A gentle voice poured forth — “Hello, this is Chris. How can I help? I shared some of my pain and suffering, summarizing over 40 years of struggle that had led me to a life or death cliff. “Tony, you are not alone. I'm here to help.” Chris guided me to an Inpatient facility in Western Massachusetts. Within 24 hours, a car was in my driveway to take me the three hours through the wooded wilderness of Upstate New York to a place designed to help people like me struggling with an addiction and a mental health diagnosis to take the first step toward sobriety, sanity, and serenity. My second day at that facility I had visitors. It was Chris and he brought along a friend — Mattie. If the Roman Catholic Church accepted nominations for patron saints of recovery, I would submit Mattie's name. Mattie listened intently. Barely spoke. I did find out he was the owner of Empower Health Group, a dual diagnosis rehab in Northampton, Massachusetts. Chris gave me a phone number and said if I ever needed more help, they would take care of me. Within 17 days, I desperately needed more help. My trust had been violated. My condition had deteriorated. I hadn't slept for days. I asked the case manager to call Empower. In no time, I spoke to Nate who reassured me they would accept me into the program and I could start immediately. Nate's warm and welcoming baritone voice reassured me that I would be okay, that things would get better. A few hours later I arrived. Nate did my intake and ordered me groceries. Bryan, an alumni director, gave me a firm handshake. Jonathan, who would become my therapist, brought me pizza. Nate then gave me a tour of the two-story office space. When we got to the top of the stairs, he gestured to the treatment rooms and said, “This is where the magic happens.” Over the next 100 days or so, one day at a time, I would meet the wounded healers who served Empower as staff magicians. The people who poured out their hearts to bring hope to those with troubled minds — a chance to choose abundant life over miserable death dealing ways. Shelby and her canine companion Vinny. Shelby makes things happen night and day with compassionate consideration. Jody, who attends to group process and family dynamics with a bloodhound's nose for codependency. Later came Kibbie, a master chef who serves up comfort foods from scratch. Emily, a model of serenity who maintains the ability to exercise tough love. Will, willing to tackle things behind the scenes. And recently two of my best friends in recovery — Tim, a brilliant spiritual mentor who has been like a brother to me, and Kyle, like a son, who masterfully chauffeurs people in the Empower van and sets a quiet example of devotion to sobriety. A final word about Mattie. Mattie is 33 years old, a heroin addict in recovery for over a dozen years who humbly points out he relapsed over 50 times before he was willing to surrender to God, his Higher Power, and do the work necessary to maintain sobriety, sanity, and serenity. Mattie's methods seem mad to many — he is ruthless in his pursuit of recovery and desperately wants that for everyone. He is at his best when assembling a top-notch team of wounded healers and empowering them to do their jobs. The sky's the limit for Empower, but they could also self-implode tomorrow if they are not daily vigilant to their recovering identity and mission. I am now an Empower alum, class of Feb 2025. I now offer service and pray daily that everyone impacted by their spiritual mission would be liberated to live in love. Empower Health Group,

In the United States., psychiatric healthcare seems to be caught between two extreme ideologies...Dr. Morgan Shields, Assistant Professor at the WashU Brown School in St. Louis, is back for part 2 after sharing her VERY personal experiences with the inpatient psychiatric setting. If you haven't listened or watched part 1, make sure to go back one week and hit play.On one side, there's a push to expand inpatient psych beds—just add more space, and things will improve. On the other, some advocate for the complete abolition of psychiatric hospitals, believing that getting rid of them is the real solution.Two drastically different views—but why is the debate so polarized? And is either approach truly the answer?Check out the shownotes for further resources and ways to connect.Takeaways: In this episode, we dive into the complex world of inpatient psychiatric care and its challenges, highlighting the need for better patient-centered practices. Dr. Shields emphasizes the alarming lack of accountability in psychiatric hospitals, suggesting that simply admitting someone doesn't guarantee quality care. We explore the contrasting ideologies in psychiatric care reform, from expanding bed capacity to advocating for community-based alternatives like peer respites. The differences in care quality between for-profit and nonprofit psychiatric facilities raise important questions about patient welfare and institutional priorities. Our discussion reveals how institutional betrayal can occur when patients feel let down by the systems meant to protect them, emphasizing the importance of trust in healthcare. Ultimately, we want to encourage listeners who've faced negative experiences in psychiatric settings to know they're not alone, and change is possible. *The views expressed in this episode are those of the guest and do not represent the views of Global Health Pursuit Podcast or the host.

What if I told you that there are healthcare facilities that can inadvertently worsen your condition? I'm talking about the case of inpatient psychiatric care. In this episode, I feature a special guest, Dr. Morgan Shields, whose lived experiences might make you question the state of mental healthcare in the United States. From witnessing it from the sidelines as her father experienced bipolar disorder, to experiencing psychosis and manic episodes herself, she found herself asking time and time again for help only to walk away feeling disappointed, hurt, and abandoned of the system. Her journey is one that you'll be thinking about weeks after hearing her story.Check out the shownotes for further resources and ways to connect.Takeaways: Inpatient psychiatric care can sometimes make mental health conditions worse instead of better, which is a shocking reality that many people don't realize. Patients in psychiatric facilities often lack agency and choice, which can lead to feelings of helplessness and contribute to a negative experience. High suicide rates shortly after discharge from psychiatric care raise questions about the effectiveness and safety of these facilities. Dehumanization is a major issue in inpatient psychiatric care, as patients are often treated like they don't deserve respect or dignity during their treatment. There's a significant gap in the quality of care provided in inpatient settings versus outpatient care, highlighting the need for reform in mental health treatment. Dr. Shields emphasizes the importance of understanding the lived experiences of those within the mental healthcare system in order to drive meaningful change. *The views expressed in this episode are those of the guest and do not represent the views of Global Health Pursuit Podcast or the host.

Over 9,000 Clare patients are believed to have already stayed overnight at the MidWest Region's main hospital this year. The finding is based on previous HSE data, which indicates that one in four patients presenting at University Hospital Limerick originate from this county. In the first two months of the year, almost 38,000 people were admitted to inpatient beds at UHL, equating to 158 patients from Clare every day. Friends of Ennis Hospital Chairperson Angela Coll says the HSE needs to source step-down beds in the short term.

In this episode, we meet up with Josh Conklin, a seasoned bone marrow transplant (BMT) nurse at the University of Michigan Hospital, to explore his experiences, insights, and tips for managing chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). With 11 years of inpatient experience, Josh offers a comprehensive view of the challenges and triumphs in caring for patients undergoing BMT.Josh explains that his primary role involves guiding patients through the most critical stages of their transplant journey, from chemotherapy conditioning to the stem cell infusion and the vulnerable recovery period afterward. He emphasizes the delicate balance required in managing GVHD, a condition that plays a dual role: while some GvHD is beneficial in suppressing cancer recurrence (graft-versus-leukemia effect), too much can lead to severe complications.Long-term immunosuppression is a cornerstone of GVHD management. Josh highlights the reliance on drugs like tacrolimus and, when necessary, steroids. However, we note the adverse effects of prolonged steroid use, such as muscle wasting, infections, and physical deconditioning. Emerging monoclonal antibody therapies are offering new hope, aiming to reduce these side effects.The discussion also sheds light on the psychological toll of repeated hospitalizations and the role caregivers play in patient success.
