On the morning of Thursday, June 20, unionized nurses at Ascension St. Agnes Hospital in Baltimore held a rally outside the hospital to raise awareness of their efforts to secure a first contract and to show management that they're not backing down from their core demands for safe staffing and an operational model that puts patients and patient care first. "St. Agnes nurses are calling on Ascension to accept their proposals to improve safe staffing and, subsequently, nurse retention," a press release from National Nurses Organizing Committee/National Nurses United (NNOC/NNU) stated. "Nearly 20 percent of nurses at St. Agnes began employment at the hospital after January 1 of this year. Meanwhile, just over a third of nurses have more than four years of experience at the hospital... The Catholic hospital system is one of the largest in the country with 140 hospitals in 19 states and also one of the wealthiest, with cash reserves, an investment company, and a private equity operation worth billions of dollars—and, because of its nonprofit status, is exempt from paying federal taxes." In this on-the-ground episode, we take you to the NNOC/NNU picket line and speak with Nicki Horvat, an RN in the Neonatal Intensive Care unit at Ascension St. Agnes and member of the bargaining team, about what she and her coworkers are fighting for.

Recorded on 8 October 2020 for ICMDA Webinars. Dr Peter Saunders chairs a webinar with Prof John Whitehall In recent years, the issue of transgender identity in children has leapt from the periphery of public consciousness to centre stage of a cultural drama played out in the media, courts, schools, hospitals, families, and in the minds and bodies of children. It is a kind of utopian religion with committed believers. Join us as we discuss the facts - how common is gender dysphoria, what are associated mental health problems, what is the risk of self-harm and suicide, what is the treatment and what is appropriate medical intervention? Professor John Whitehall is the chair of CMDF Australia and Professor of Paediatrics at Western Sydney University. His 50 year career began at Sydney University, continued through developing countries and western Sydney as a general paediatrician, then focussed on neonatology before coming to WSU. For 15 years he was Director of Neonatal Intensive Care in Townsville, North Queensland, which included ante-natal diagnosis, resuscitation, management and transportation of premature, dysmorphic and sick neonates, many of whom were Indigenous. In Townsville, he was deeply involved in the establishment of the medical school at James Cook University and, for 20 years, taught modules of Tropical Paediatrics in the Masters programme in the School of Public Health. In recent years, he has also worked as a consultant physician in PNG, Sri Lanka and Madagascar. Currently, he teaches, leads research and has duties in general paediatrics. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠To listen live to future ICMDA webinars visit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://icmda.net/resources/webinars/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

The Pediatric Physical Therapy Podcast March, 2024 Edition: AN INTERVIEW WITH: Eilish M Byrne PT, DSc, PCS, CNT, Assistant Professor, Camino Hospital and Stanford Children's Hospital, California, Visiting Professor University of St Augustine, San Marcos, California. In conversation with Peter Goodwin, Editor, The Pediatric Physical Therapy Podcast (March, 2024 Edition) DESCRIPTION: Dr. Byrne discusses the research her ream has published in Pediatric Physical Therapy, Volume 36, Number 2, 2024 on: “Introducing the i-Rainbow- An evidence-based, parent-friendly care pathway designed for even the most critically ill infant in the Neonatal Intensive Care setting.” AUTHORS: Eilish M. Byrne, Katherine Hunt and Melissa Scala SUMMARY: This study investigated the feasibility and effectiveness of a novel, evidence-based developmental care pathway to be used by healthcare providers and parents in the neonatal intensive care setting. PURPOSE: This study investigated the feasibility and effectiveness of a novel, evidence-based developmental care pathway to be used by healthcare providers and parents in the neonatal intensive care setting (NICU). The iRainbow is based on current evidence and responds to individual infant health status. It is not base on infant age. METHODS: After development and implementation of the iRainbow, pre-and post- implementation nurse and parent survey data were collected, and pre- and post-developmental care rates were compared. RESULTS: After iRainbow implementation, disagreement among providers on appropriate developmental care interventions significantly decreased, total minutes of daily developmental care and swaddled holding increased significantly, and parents reported that they would recommend the tool. CONCLUSION: The iRainbow is a unique, parent-friendly, infant-based tool that guides sensory interventions in the NICU by staging infants based on cardiorespiratory status and physiologic maturity, not age. The iRainbow improved the delivery of developmental care activities in our unit and was well received by parents and nurses. KEYWORDS: iRainbow, Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, Neonatal Therapy, Developmental Care, Neonatal Sensory Interventions, Neonatal Care Path, Family Education WHAT THIS EVIDENCE ADDS: Current evidence: There are many studies and programs demonstrating the benefits of providing evidence-based developmental interventions for both neonates and caregivers.1-4 Gap in the evidence: There is less agreement regarding the safety and timing of developmental interventions7-9, and what does exist tends to rely on gestational age, while recommending performing activities per infant tolerance.5,6 However, this approach can be problematic because preterm infants progress at variable rates, and infant tolerance is not objectively defined. How does this study fill this gap? This study provides objective clinical criteria to define neonate tolerance for intervention guided by the cardiorespiratory stability of the infant, and in later stages, behavior cues of the infant, not gestational age. Implication of all the evidence: Optimal timing of and tolerance to evidence-based developmental interventions in the NICU is still being described. Relying solely on gestational ages may not be ideal for many infants. The iRainbow serves as a valuable tool to objectively identify an infant's readiness to participate in a developmental care program.

Women are not simply small men - we often experience medical events differently to our male counterparts. This week I'm talking to Sam Palmer, about the risks and symptoms of heart attacks. Sam explained that once we lose the protection oestrogen provides, our risk of heart disease rises. Sam listed the risk factors:SmokingObesityHypertension (high blood pressure)Raised CholesterolElevated stress levelsPoor sleepSam runs an online fitness program for women in midlife and beyond (which I can personally recommend!) and advocates raising your heart rate for 20-30 minutes regularly AND practising restorative exercise, such as yoga to calm you down. Eat the rainbow - as many different and plentiful fruits and vegetables you can fit into your day - avoid excessive salt, saturated fats and processed foods as far as possible, but eat “good” fats like avocados and nuts and plenty of protein.About SamSam's career started in the NHS where she qualified as a nurse eventually working as a Sister in NeoNatal Intensive Care. An award winning running coach, she underwent further training to help her clients, eventually founding Midlife Makeover. Find out about her online fitness membership here: https://www.midlifemakeover.co.uk/ About the Midlife and Beyond PodcastLike all transitions, midlife can be messy and sad and glorious all at once, leaving many midlife women feeling rather alone and somewhat invisible. But what does this transition we are experiencing lead to? I'm Jo Blackwell, a photographer, author and coach for women who want more from their lives post 50 and I'm here to remind you that if we manage our health and embrace it, growing older can lead to one of the greatest periods of growth and transformation of our lives. The Midlife Movement was created to change minds about midlife and growing older, one story at a time. Because we only become invisible when when we stop seeing ourselves. email jo@joblackwell.co.uk to take part in the podcast or suggest guests.

Please listen to our latest episode of The Lebanese Physicians' Podcast with Dr. Fawzi Maalouf. This episode was recorded live from Bar Tartine on Bliss Street, Beirut. Dr. Maalouf is Assistant Professor of Pediatrics in Neonatology at the American University of Beirut. In this episode, we discuss the recent advancements in neonatal intensive care worldwide and the survival of younger infants. We then discuss neonatal intensive care in Lebanon both in the Beirut area and in the regions. We then delve into the involvement of AUB in projects aiming at improving access to care of infants in the different regions of Lebanon depending on their needs and complexity of care. Currently, outcomes in the regions for preterm infants might not be at the same level as Beirut. If you are interested in equal access to care and quality outcome improvement, this is an episode not to be missed.  #NICU #Pediatrics #healthcareequality #podcast

A tender conversation about the start of life, the end of life, and quality of life.  --- 1 in 10 babies in Australia are born premature, and 15% of all babies will need some form of extra care at birth.   Today on Life & Faith, we venture into a place that will be unfamiliar to many – but all too familiar to some: the neonatal intensive care unit, or NICU. Dr Annie Janvier is a neonatologist (she takes care of sick babies); she's also a researcher and ethicist, thinking about difficult decisions doctors have to make, and trying to understand the perspective and experience of parents in the NICU.   And 17 years ago, she also became the mother of an extremely premature daughter. Violette was born at 24 weeks – and her mother discovered that knowing how a respirator works did not help her to be the mum of a baby on a respirator.   Annie shares some of the emotions that arise from being a parent in NICU; and some of the questions that arise – about life, death, disability, and meaning – for people in this situation. And we have a bonus story for you here too: Andy Crouch describes the short, vulnerable, but deeply significant life of his niece Angela.   ---  Explore:   Annie's book Breathe, Baby, Breathe!

Recorded on 16 February 2023 for ICMDA Webinars. Dr Peter Saunders chairs a Q&A with Prof John Whitehall. Professor John Whitehall is the chair of CMDF Australia and Professor of Paediatrics at Western Sydney University. His 50 year career began at Sydney University, continued through developing countries and western Sydney as a general paediatrician, then focussed on neonatology before coming to WSU. For 15 years he was Director of Neonatal Intensive Care in Townsville, North Queensland, which included ante-natal diagnosis, resuscitation, management and transportation of premature, dysmorphic and sick neonates, many of whom were Indigenous. In Townsville, he was deeply involved in the establishment of the medical school at James Cook University and, for 20 years, taught modules of Tropical Paediatrics in the Masters programme in the School of Public Health.

There's a quiet revolution happening in the field of genetic screening of newborns. Within the last couple of years it's become possible to sequence the entire genome of a newborn baby, all six billion base pairs of DNA, and diagnose potential genetic disorders in about 7 hours. That's already happening in a handful of hospitals, with a focus on babies who are showing symptoms of rare genetic disorders. But within five years, says Harry's guest, Dr. Stephen Kingsmore, it should be possible to extend this rapid whole-genome sequencing to every baby in every hospital, whether they're showing symptoms or not.Kingsmore earned his medical degrees in Northern Ireland, trained in internal medicine and rheumatology at Duke, and studied genomic medicine at Children's Mercy Hospital in Kansas City. And he's now the president and CEO of the Institute for Genomic Medicine at Rady Children's Hospital in San Diego. There, he's been leading an aggressive push to prove that rapid whole-genome sequencing and diagnosis can not only save the lives of newborns, but save the healthcare system a lot of money by making hospital stays shorter and therapies more directed. He's been able to use that argument to get Medicaid agencies in California and five other states, as well as a handful of private insurance companies, to cover whole-genome sequencing as the new standard of care for babies who end up in intensive care with unexplained illnesses. And if his newest project, BeginNGS, succeeds, it could lead to universal screening of all newborns for hundreds or even thousands of rare genetic disorders. For a full transcript of this episode, please visit our episode page at http://www.glorikian.com/podcast Please rate and review The Harry Glorikian Show on Apple Podcasts!

Throughout the pandemic, clinicians and others in healthcare began more open discussions about “moral distress” – a key stressor for those involved in delivering patient care and other first responders. So what is it? And how do you manage it? Crystal interviews Amanda Bush, MS, RN, a nurse with a background in Neonatal Intensive Care and a Masters degree in ethics, who specializes in helping clinicians deal with moral distress at MedStar Health's Center for Wellbeing, and Lucia Wocial, PHD, RN, FAAN, HEC-C, a nurse and internationally renowned senior clinical ethicist with the John J. Lynch, MD, Center for Ethics at MedStar Health. They help define moral distress, talk about how to recognize it and how to manage it…and discuss why it's important to continue the conversation about moral distress in health care.

This podcast highlights an abstract presented at ASPEN22 which examined the experience of Nutrition Care team members using a novel sterile bottle of HMF. The experts discuss the challenges in the safe and efficient use of human breast milk and human milk fortifier (HMF) in the care of high-risk infants and why novel technology may be beneficial. They also touch upon future directions in human milk fortification. This podcast is sponsored by Reckitt/Mead Johnson Nutrition. The abstract of this study is published in the March 2022 issue of JPEN (https://aspenjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/toc/10.1002/(ISSN)1941-2444.nutrition-science-practice-conference-abstracts) Amy Gates, the key author of this abstract, would like to acknowledge her co-authors: Heather V.

For this week's episode on The Balanced Parent Podcast, we are going to talk about a topic that is a little bit different from what we have tackled before and is quite personal in my own parenting journey. Many of you know that while I was pregnant with my second daughter I got into a car accident that started me down a path that eventually lead me away from academia and into my work with you all. But something I rarely talk about is my first daughter's traumatic birth that resulted in a Neonatal Intensive Care stay. During both of these incredibly difficult moments, I had to dig deep to figure out how to support myself and how to be fully present with my family. I struggled with my self-worth, knowing what was right, and feeling like I was constantly failing. During both of these incredibly difficult moments, I had to dig deep to figure out how to support myself and how to be fully present with my family. ​ It wasn't easy and at the time I felt incredibly alone. ​ ​I am speaking more about this experience TODAY in this online retreat, I'd love to have you join me!​ I know now that my emotions and experience in response to these stressful situations were incredibly common and understandable and that I'm definitely not alone. And while you maybe haven't had these exact experiences or had a medically complex child, I know that there have likely been times, especially over these past two years, where things have felt very heavy and hard. And that's what I want to support you with in this week's episode with my guest Tanisha Burke-Wormley. She is a NICU mom of a medically complex child who supports moms all over the world as they move through the space of having to stay in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) with their child. Her son, Jaleel, is a NICU and Kidney Warrior who she helps conquer Chronic Kidney Stage 5 everyday as a Stay-at-home Medical Mom. She also has a healthy daughter, Jameela, that she gave birth to at home in October 2020 during the Covid pandemic. To get more support, follow Tanisha on social media and join her Facebook community. She is a grad student and donates much of her time to these causes, so supporting her by giving her a follow or spreading the word to moms you know who need support is hugely appreciated! ​ Instagram: @medicalmomsofnicu​ Facebook Page: www.facebook.com/MedicalMomsofNICU​ Facebook Group: Medical Moms of NICU Group​Find more show notes here: www.laurafroyen.com/podcast

In this episode, we interview Dr. Benjamin Rattray, Associate Medical Director of Neonatal Intensive Care at the Cone Health Women's and Children's Center in North Carolina. He gives us a glimpse in how he compartmentalizes what he sees on a day-to-day basis in the NICU, how he gives parents good and bad news, and leaves the workday at the hospital when he goes home to his family. It's important that doctors have a creative outlet, or someone to speak to, to unwind their mind of all the things they see in hospitals to avoid depression, harming thoughts, or physician burnout. Enjoying your hobbies, reflecting on what you're grateful for, and being a wonderful Servant Leader are the ways Dr. Rattray believes one can be the best physician and parent one can be.

By Michael Tetreault, Editor Today, we catch up with two of the most dynamic and unique individuals you will ever meet in healthcare. It is my pleasure to introduce you to KC Devine Raver, FNP-C and Angela Romero, Founder and Owner of Angela Romero Insurance Agency, Inc., both in Albuquerque, NM. This is part of a unique educational series by the Direct Primary Care Journal (DPC Journal), Concierge Medicine Today (CMT) and our DocPreneur Podcast on the growing trend and success of DPC-FNP clinics and their rising popularity across the U.S. since 2018 and beyond. Angela started the Angela Romero Insurance Agency, Inc. (ARIA) in 2002 and is passionate about serving her clients with the respect and attention she feels individuals deserve no matter the size of the company. For the past several years, Angela has been committed to keeping on top of the daily changes in the Health Insurance industry due to the Affordable Care Act and is ACA certified. Angela belongs to many professional organizations locally and nationally including, the Rio Grande Association of Health Underwriters (where she has served two terms as the Education chair), The National Association of Health Underwriters and Michelle Lujan Grisham's Health Care Advisory Council. She currently sits on the board of the New Mexico Insurance Nominating Committee, Office of the Superintendent and the Heart Gallery Foundation of NM. As a membership family practice, called Direct Primary Care, Well Life ABQ is able to schedule enough time with you to actually get to know you and listen to you. Instead of quickly writing a prescription or referring you to another provider, we work with you to overcome your health problems through nutrition, lifestyle, supplements and even medicine when necessary. Katherine "KC" Devine Raver is a Family Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of experience as a Registered Nurse and Nurse Practitioner. She has worked in a variety of settings. She was born and mostly raised in Albuquerque. She completed high school in Hawaii and earned her Bachelors of Nursing from the University of Hawaii. As an Army Nurse, she specialized in Pediatrics and spent most of her Army career in the Neonatal Intensive Care. She has also lived in South Carolina, Virginia, Texas and Washington, DC. She moved to Amarillo in 2013 and practiced as a Nurse Practitioner in a pediatric clinic that mostly served Medicaid and refugee patients. Having always been attracted to alternative treatment options, in 2015 she was able to join Well Life Family Medicine and start her journey into all the things Integrative Medicine has to offer. She feels that both models have something to offer. Well Life ABQ is a great option with or without insurance. Most providers have 800-900 patients on their "panel". They don't know who you are and they are so booked with appointments, they only have a few minutes to see you. Through the use of membership, Well Life ABQ is able to only have a patient panel of 300-400. That means you aren't just a number, you are a person. In addition to your regularly scheduled visits, we keep appointments (online and in-person) open for sick visits AND we can respond to questions in a timely manner. In our practice, we believe prevention is the key to lifelong health and wellness. We are committed to helping you get well, stay well and live well. It is our mission not only to heal, but to inspire and motivate our patients to embrace and follow a path leading to wellness and a healthy long life.

Conversation 138:  The Story, Journey and Passion of Kimberly Bond, RD, LMNT, CNSC “What I love about going from the inpatient to the outpatient side, is really getting to know people, their families and their lives. It is fun to talk with them and to help them get the chance to move forward with their lives. ” Kimberly Bond, RD, LMNT, CNSC Today’s conversation is with Kim Bond, a registered dietitian who is a Certified Nutrition Support Clinician who works with at home infusion services. Kim and I go way back to the beginning of my career as a registered dietitian as she was my preceptor during my clinical rotation. She was also one of the bravest dietitians I have ever met who took a leap in her career into Neonatal Intensive Care with no experience. She has since transitioned into at home infusion services, which is an up and coming area of careers for dietitians.  Please enjoy my conversation with Kim. Connect with Kim by email.

Premature babies require special care. Dr. Phillip Cheng, neonatologist, discusses the neonatal intensive care unit.

Premature babies face a fierce battle for life. Born too soon and so tiny science can only take them some of the way. It's the health professionals and their amazing parents that help them survive against the odds.

The Editor's Choice paper of the ADC Fetal & Neonatal January edition explores the characteristics of successful neonatal intensive care units and is the topic of a broader discussion between Jonathan Davis, ADC Fetal & Neonatal Associate Editor, and Dr Joseph Kaempf, Women and Children’s Services, Department of Neonatology, Portland, USA. Dr Kaempf is the corresponding author of the paper “Using a composite morbidity score and cultural survey to explore characteristics of high proficiency neonatal intensive care units” (https://fn.bmj.com/content/104/1/F13). Read the related editorial as well, “The secret sauce: secrets of high performing neonatal intensive care units” (https://fn.bmj.com/content/104/1/F4).

By Michael Tetreault, Editor Today, we catch up with one of the most dynamic and unique individuals you will ever meet in healthcare. It is my pleasure to introduce you to KC Devine Raver, FNP-C. This is Part 1 of 3 in a Direct Primary Care Journal (DPC Journal) and DocPreneur Podcast Series on the trend and success of DPC-FNP clinics rising in popularity across the U.S. in 2018 and moving forward. As a membership family practice, called Direct Primary Care, Well Life ABQ is able to schedule enough time with you to actually get to know you and listen to you. Instead of quickly writing a prescription or referring you to another provider, we work with you to overcome your health problems through nutrition, lifestyle, supplements and even medicine when necessary. Katherine "KC" Devine Raver is a Family Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of experience as a Registered Nurse and Nurse Practitioner. She has worked in a variety of settings. She was born and mostly raised in Albuquerque. She completed high school in Hawaii and earned her Bachelors of Nursing from the University of Hawaii. As an Army Nurse, she specialized in Pediatrics and spent most of her Army career in the Neonatal Intensive Care. She has also lived in South Carolina, Virginia, Texas and Washington, DC. She moved to Amarillo in 2013 and practiced as a Nurse Practitioner in a pediatric clinic that mostly served Medicaid and refugee patients. Having always been attracted to alternative treatment options, in 2015 she was able to join Well Life Family Medicine and start her journey into all the things Integrative Medicine has to offer. She feels that both models have something to offer. She returned home to Albuquerque in late 2016. Wanting to continue practicing integrative medicine, she has joined forces with Well Life in Amarillo and opened Well Life ABQ as an affiliated clinic. Why membership? Like a gym membership, you are investing in your health. Typically you would only visit your healthcare provider's office when you are sick. In this model, we are encouraging you to use your medical office for more than just "ill care". In addition to visits with your healthcare provider, you get discounted supplements, discounted labs and even some discounted medications. Well Life ABQ is also here when you are sick. Through the use of texting, emailing, same/next day visits to members and online/telemedicine when medically appropriate, Well Life ABQ is here. Well Life ABQ is a great option with or without insurance. Most providers have 800-900 patients on their "panel". They don't know who you are and they are so booked with appointments, they only have a few minutes to see you. Through the use of membership, Well Life ABQ is able to only have a patient panel of 300-400. That means you aren't just a number, you are a person. In addition to your regularly scheduled visits, we keep appointments (online and in-person) open for sick visits AND we can respond to questions in a timely manner. In our practice, we believe prevention is the key to lifelong health and wellness. We are committed to helping you get well, stay well and live well. It is our mission not only to heal, but to inspire and motivate our patients to embrace and follow a path leading to wellness and a healthy long life.

In this episode of “Yoga | Birth | Babies,” I speak with neonatologist and social worker, Dr Sue Hall about navigating the Neonatal Intensive Care unit (NICU).  Having a child in the NICU can be overwhelming and a great emotional strain.  Dr Hall has dedicated much of her career to the psycho-social support of NICU parents.  Our discussion sheds some light on what parents may expect, how they can advocate for themselves and their child and how to find support during this turbulent time.

Another in an occasional series of interviews with members of the National Speakers Association, Northern California Pro-Track class of 2008. Candace Campbell is a speaker with many talents. A child model and actress since age nine, a stand-up comedienne since '93 when she jumped off the therapists' couch and grabbed a mic, Candy's presentations are both witty and inspirational. She started her own business, Peripatetic Productions, in 1995 in order to produce her first of two one-woman shows, and is a member of ASCAP (singers and composers union) and AFTRA (television/radio artists union). She spent 20 years as a Neonatal Intensive Care nurse and has produced an award-winning documentary film on the psychosocial impact of having a micropremature baby, which has been seen in educational venues in most English speaking countries. She is a writer for TV and film. Her latest project, a novel based on her screenplay, Walking Point, was inspired by some of her own experiences caring for veterans suffering with PTSD during the '70's. She is also working on two non-fiction books (one for parents, one for siblings) to accompany her documentary on premature babies. Candy speaks on many topics, but each of her presentations contains a common denominator: keeping personal standards high and intact in a world which tempts us to abandon scruples for the brass ring. Speech topics include: Management Without Manipulation; Portraits of a Pariah : Navigating Society As A Single Mom; Premature Birth: Facts and Fiction; PTSD:The Gift That Keeps on Giving. I interviewed Candy about her background and plans for the future. To hear what she has to say, click on the podcast icon below.
