In this episode, John welcomes Dr. Wren McCallister from Edmonds, Washington, the founder of Better Health Made Easy and HandGuyMD. Dr. McCallister is a Medical Doctor with a background in orthopedics and sports medicine. He shares his journey into entrepreneurship and how he noticed a gap in the healthcare system. Dr. McCallister realized that many patients were showing up late in the game when surgery was their only option or spending unnecessary time at the doctor's office for simple information. This led him to create HandGuyMD, a platform aimed at providing accurate and specific medical information to empower individuals to make informed decisions about their health. Dr. McCallister's personal experience with Metabolic Syndrome also inspired him to focus on the fundamentals of health: sleep, mindset, nutrition, and exercise. As he made positive changes in his own life, his patients began to notice and inquire about his transformation. Dr. McCallister's mission is to address the after-effects of systemic disease and chronic inflammation by promoting a holistic approach to health and wellness.

Discussion of ADHD is EVERYWHERE in the news and social media. Often we hear patients, friends, and family members stating “I saw a post on FB/Instagram/Twitter/TikTok about ADHD that resonated with me, should I get tested?” While many people experience periods of inattention, unfocused motor activity, and impulsivity, those with ADHD experience these symptoms to a much greater degree, and these behaviors can often interfere with their social lives, working lives, and general mental health. Depending on your age and many other social factors, screening and evaluation for ADHD may have passed you over during your young, formative years.

In today's enlightening conversation, I had the privilege of joining Tristan Scott and Ryan Brown, the dynamic hosts of the 'Decentralized Radio' podcast. Tristan, with his impressive background as an electrical engineer and a deep passion for health, nutrition, regenerative agriculture, and more, shared a personal journey that pushed him towards understanding the intricacies of health and the existing flaws in our food and farming systems. Having battled post concussive syndrome (PCS), he's delved deep into the realm of self-healing, which has fostered his dedication to educating society on potential improvements. Outside of these profound conversations, Tristan can be found immersed in the outdoors, whether he's skiing, hiking, camping, or kayaking amidst the breathtaking landscapes of the Mountain West.We deeply delved into the essence of holistic health. Advocating for doctors to act more as guides than traditional gatekeepers, I emphasized the synergy of various health avenues—from psychedelic and functional medicine to nutrition and mindfulness. It's crucial for patients to be empowered with an array of tools, echoing a shift I've observed: health and wellness moving beyond mere medication, with both physicians and patients growing more receptive to holistic practices. It's this rich blend of individual stories and collective learning that, to me, paints the full picture of health and wellness in our modern age.In essence, our discussion was a thorough examination of contemporary well-being. We delved into the confluence of tradition, technology, and conscious choices, aiming to shed light on strategies for leading a balanced life in a rapidly evolving digital age. For those seeking insights into holistic health, our conversation serves as an informative guide, underscoring the importance of mindfulness, self-awareness, and a proactive approach to personal wellness.Key Points From This Episode:Passion for health and wellness [00:09:56]Medication dependency and lack of knowledge [00:15:10]Embrace discomfort for personal growth [00:19:58]Embrace struggles for personal growth [00:30:08]Shift towards holistic health [00:35:34]Sleep, nutrition, movement, & mind [00:50:10]Biohacking for optimal health [00:54:28]Instant gratification hinders long-term health [01:04:09]The joy of spearfishing and its rewards [01:10:09]Breathing techniques for stress reduction [01:19:20]Be intentional with your phone [01:41:20]Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Click HERE to save on BiOptimizers MagnesiumDecentralized RadioTristan Scott on InstagramRyan Brown FacebookBreathwork PodcastDavid 'Jacko' JacksonRa OpticsSleep BlogBreathwork BlogSupport the show

The Myth of the Five Rights for Safe Medication Administration

Smart Healthcare Safety from ECRI Institute

Play Episode Listen Later Sep 15, 2023 14:23


The idea of the “five rights” for medication safety has been taught in nursing school since at least World War II, used as a memory tool that nurses should rely on to administer medications safely. Even though no one can identify where the five rights came from, the idea is embedded in medication safety programs and appears frequently in error reports submitted to ECRI and the ISMP Patient Safety Organization.As our guest Susan Paparella, Vice President, Services, Institute for Safe Medication Practices (ISMP), points out, the five rights are inadequate as a safety tool. Because they do not address the system-level errors that contribute to medication errors, those errors can occur even when the five rights have been followed. In the latest episode, we discuss more about the shortcomings of the five rights, and better starting points for medication safety programs.Learn more about ISMP and the ECRI-ISMP Medication Safety memberships.

On this episode of ‘Inside Medical Malpractice', an interview like you've never heard before.  Listen in as Chris Rokosh talks to former Registered Nurse RaDonda Vaught. On March 25, 2022, a jury found RaDonda guilty of criminally negligent homicide for her part in a fatal medication error at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, Tennessee. Criminal prosecution of a nurse is rare, but it happened.  And, when things go wrong, it's easier to talk about a bad nurse than to examine a flawed system.  RaDonda will tell us a story which, she says, is so much bigger than herself. She reminds us that she only has a story because someone lost their life. Part one of this podcast starts on the fateful day RaDonda incidentally administered a paralyzing drug and ends with the touching story of how she met Mrs. Murphey's grandson in the Tractor Supply Store.

In this episode, Erica and Darius explore the topic of medication as a supportive tool for enhancing executive functions such as inhibitory control, working memory, and cognitive flexibility. With special focus on ADHD, dyslexia, and other conditions that influence executive skills, they explore: The role of stimulant medications like Methylphenidate (Ritalin, Concerta) and Amphetamines (Adderall, Vyvanse) in optimizing neurotransmitter levels for better focus and impulse control. Alternative non-stimulant options, such as Atomoxetine (Strattera) and Guanfacine (Intuniv), and how they may be suitable for those who don't respond well to stimulants. Potential roles of supplements and dietary changes in enhancing cognitive functioning. Remember, medication is not a one-size-fits-all solution and should always be considered after exploring other options and as part of a broader treatment plan.

For our 51st podcast episode, I discussed a contensious topic in the neonatal world, Gastroesophageal Reflux (GER) and Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD). Although it is a common occurrence amongst all infants, the lack of updated, clear, and consistent diagnostic and management recommendations remains, especially for the NICU population. Due to my personal and professional experiences, it is difficult for me to have one solid stance on the topic. As a former NICU nurse, I saw so many infants experience reflux. As a NICU parent, my son William, struggled with reflux once we brought him home and yes, at that time, it was managed with medication. And finally, now as a Neonatal Nurse Practitioner, I am more knowledgeable about what the evidence does and does not show regarding reflux and I understand its complexity. So I can fully appreciate how nurses advocate for their patients. I also completely acknowledge the internal battle parents endure as they helplessly watch their baby grapple with reflux and its associated symptoms, and I also embrace what the research has shown and why providers do not hastily start infants on reflux medications. Tune in now to learn the difference between Gastroesophageal Reflux and Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease, some common symptoms, and how it is typically diagnosed. Be amazed as I debunk some of the common myths and conditions that are thought to be associated with GERD. Additionally, listeners will also walk away with a better understanding of the most up-to-date recommendations for the management of GER and GERD including non-pharmacological and pharmacological treatments. So sit back and get ready to be empowered as we discuss Gastroesophageal Reflux.

[00:30:00] Commitment-driven behavior, not just motivation, is essential for long-term success. [00:31:00] Rituals play a significant role in maintaining recovery. [00:32:00] They work with individuals of all ages, from adolescents to older adults. [00:33:00] Joint Commission accreditation is essential for ensuring safety and effectiveness. [00:35:00] Seek recommendations from trusted sources rather than relying solely on internet searches when looking for help. [00:36:00] Due diligence, such as checking credentials and success rates, is vital when choosing a treatment center or professional. [00:39:00] Networking and talking to others who have been through similar situations can be invaluable in finding help.

Welcome to another episode of the one day at a time recovery podcast. In case you are new here, my name is Arlina and I'll be your host.   Today my guest is Dr. Paul Linde. He is the MEDICAL DIRECTOR of PSYCHIATRY AND COLLABORATIVE CARE with over 30 years' experience in emergency psychiatric care. Dr Linde is also a published researcher, author and Clinical Professor Emeritus in Psychiatry at UCSF School of Medicine. We will be talking about alternatives to AA, moderation, and harm reduction medications.    I personally believe it's important to keep an open mind and recognize that everyone is different, and that there are so many variables to recovery. My intention today is to educate myself on topics that are outside of my current understanding of how to approach addiction. As a disclaimer, I am obviously not a doctor, I don't play one on the internet, nor do I endorse or suggest you try any of these treatments. That is between you and your doctor. After this conversation, you will have more information and a better understanding of options that are available.   But before we jump in, I wanted to take a moment to share that if you are looking for private one on one support, I can help. I work with women who are seeking to uncover subconscious blocks, break free of self-sabotaging behaviors, and build a life they love. If you would like to find out more, you can book a no obligation call with me by visiting SoberLifeSchool.com.   So without further delay, please enjoy this episode with    Connect with Dr Linde here: Visit Website: https://riahealth.com/ Follow on Instagram:    Subscribe So You Don't Miss New Episodes!   Listen On:   Apple Podcasts https://apple.co/30g6ALF   Spotify https://odaatchat.libsyn.com/spotify   Amazon Music      Watch Full Episodes on YouTube! https://bit.ly/2UpR5Lo
