Eventually, most of us will find ourselves caring for a loved one as they reach the end of their life. This is an experience nurse Jonathan Bartels has spent his career helping patients and families navigate. Building on his experience in palliative care, in the ICU, the ER, and studying comparative religion and mysticism, he worked to implement a practice known as "The Pause" at UVA Hospital. The Pause is essentially a moment of silent reflection for the care team and the family after a patient passes away. The goal of The Pause is to help all those involved process the patient's death and appreciate their life with the goal of promoting resiliency and healing. In this episode, Nurse Bartels discusses his long career in nursing, compassionate care, and his new hot sauce company.

When we first aired the episode “Pause For a Moment” back in February of 2020, the world was in a different place, but we were already speaking to the experiences of nurses who, when faced with death, needed to take time to reflect and process each loss and hold time to grieve. Emergency nurse and palliative care liaison, Jonathan Bartels, RN, understands the toll that witnessing a death can have on healthcare worker resiliency. Bartels designed The Pause, a meaningful and effective practice that health systems are rapidly adopting to address the alarming rate of clinician burnout and mental stress. COVID-19 changed the death and dying experience in hospitals and forced nurses to not only innovate the end-of-life experience, but also to shoulder so much more of it.

In her book Real Love, Sharon Salzberg—one of the world’s leading authorities on love—shows us it isn’t just an emotion we feel when we’re in a romantic relationship. It’s an ability we can nurture and cultivate. Also: The idea of “The Pause,” where medical caregivers take a moment together at the bedside of a patient who has died, began with emergency care nurse Jonathan Bartels at the University of Virginia hospital. This quiet moment honors the life of the person who has died and the efforts made by the caretakers. Later in the show: How do we go about creating a sense of self? Dr. Oliver Hill Jr. (Virginia State University) tells the story of his search for identity, first as a child caught up in a legal battle for school integration in the 1950s, then as a radical college student at a historically black university. After an unexpected connection at an ashram, he became a lifelong student of mindfulness and meditation practices he now brings into the lab and the classroom.

As an RN in the emergency room, Jonathan Bartels had seen his share of trauma and tragedy and he understood the toll it takes when grief and loss are unacknowledged and stifled. But one day, at the moment of a patient’s death following a failed resuscitation attempt, he received an inspiration to “Pause,”… Continue reading Ep. 170 Learn to Pause in Times of Tragedy with Jonathan Bartels RN
Når vi arbejder hårdt og bruger alle vores ressourcer på at redde en patient ender vi ofte i en situation hvor hele vores bevidsthed er fokuseret på den opgave der skal løses og gerne så godt som muligt. Ofte benytter man sig af alle elementer af sin træning. Nyeste viden omkring tilstanden og sygdommen, praktiske færdigheder, bedste version af sig selv vedr. kommunikation osv.. Det overskud som er tilbage bliver måske brugt på at planlægge hvad der skal ske om lidt, om en halv time og måske om det er et liv som er værd at leve efter lang og risikabel behandling. Når en patient så dør, ventet eller uventet er der ofte en lidt speciel stemning. Ikke fordi folk står og græder, eller fordi folk ikke ved hvad de kan eller skal gøre. Vi er faktisk super gode til netop det. At gøre noget. Men er det godt, er det nødvendigt. Kunne vi selv eller andre i teamet, de pårørende, politiet eller andre tilstedeværende have godt af 30 sekunder eller et minuts stilhed til at få ro på tankerne, puste ud og få pulsen ned. Måske teamlederen eller den der har ansvaret for at informere de pårørende ville have godt af at samle tankerne til det der ofte kan være en hård opgave. En gang i mellem kan vi have en tendens til at glemme at vi har med mennesker at gøre. Når et liv ender så har det indflydelse på mange mennesker og måske har det større indflydelse på os selv end vi er bevidste om. Vi, i FOAMmedic, er inspireret af konceptet "The Pause". Sammen med scanFOAM har vi undersøgt og afprøvet emnet. Et koncept der stammer fra nord Amerika og er udviklet af traume sygeplejerske Jonathan Bartels. I Dette afsnit af FOAMmedicPodcast fortæller vi om The Pause, om hvorfor vi tror det er en god ide at prøve og om de erfaringer vi gjort os. Vi snakker med anæstesi læge Sandra Viggers fra scanFOAM, som selv har prøvet at være med til at afholde "The Pause" og som tror dette tiltag kan bringe meget godt til det inhospitale miljø.

In her new book, Real Love, Sharon Salzberg--one of the world's leading authorities on love and meditation--shows us love isn't just an emotion we feel when we're in a romantic relationship. It's an ability we can nurture and cultivate. Also, Oliver Hill shares his journey in the 1960's from the segregated south, to black radicalism, to Transcendental Meditation with the Beach Boys. Also: How "The Pause" got started. We talk with emergency care nurse Jonathan Bartels, who just wanted to take a quiet moment to honor the life of the patient who had just died before people rushed in to clean up and change the sheets.
The eighth episode of the Patients Come First Podcast features an interview with Jonathan Bartels, a palliative care liaison nurse at the University of Virginia Medical Center, about his development of the "power of the pause" technique whereby clinical workers in an emergency department collectively take a moment to pause and reflect on the passing of a patient who cannot be revived. This method, which shows respect for the person and can have emotional benefits for hospital staff in the ER setting, has been adopted by other nursing education programs and is now being taught in several medical education programs across the nation.

My guest today is a dear friend and mentor Jonathan Bartels. As you will hear in our conversation today, my friendship with Jonathan was sparked by my curious inquiry into meditation, self care and what really existed outside of my medical school walls. What ensued following a single morning of meditation was a relationship built on appreciation, nourishment and growth. Jonathan has over 31 years of professional experience in the healthcare field. For the past 19 years he has practiced as a Registered Nurse. Eleven of which were spent working in the University Of Virginia Health System's Level I Emergency Department. He presently works as a Palliative Care Liaison nurse. Jonathan's educational background includes Graduate coursework in Eastern Philosophy and Western Mysticism at Western Michigan University (1991-1993), BA in Psychology from Canisius College in Buffalo, NY (1990) and BSN from D'Youville College in Buffalo, NY (1997). In 2009 Jonathan started a practice that helped transform how death is approached in healthcare both nationally and internationally. This practice is now known as The Pause. In this practice, healthcare providers are invited to silently honor the loss of life as a shared community that embraces diversity in unity through silence. While not a panacea, it has been instrumental at pointing to a greater need in healthcare: that in caring for others, one should not forsake self-care, compassion and resiliency. Since 2009 Jon has been a founding member of The Compassionate Care Initiative and co-facilitator for resiliency retreats offered at the University of Virginia's School of Nursing. These retreats focus on a variety of practices aimed at promoting the skills of resiliency, the importance of compassion, and the vital need for self-care. In this Episode we discuss: Jonathan's amazing background, life story and journey through healthcare as an innovative thinker and engaged nurse. The story behind the creation of the silent ritual “The Pause,” and its role in honoring the life that was lost and the efforts of the healthcare workers involved attempting to preserve it. The importance of cultivating resilience in medicine through the deliberate practice of self care, meditation, ritual and communal conversation. How organizations like the University of Virginia School of Nursing's Compassionate Care Initiative is tackling burnout in its students at an institutional and community level. The role of interprofessional collaboration among healthcare workers as a way to improve well being as well as overall patient care.
