May 12: Stroke Awareness Month Episode Episode 30: Stronger After Stroke – From Patient to Purpose: Adam Maddox's Journey In this powerful episode of “Stronger After Stroke,” host Rosa Hart, stroke nurse navigator, sits down with Adam Maddox, a stroke survivor who's rewriting his life story. At just 26 years old, Adam suffered a hemorrhagic stroke at his brother's funeral — a devastating event that led to a lifesaving intervention at Norton Brownsboro Hospital. Now a nursing student and patient care associate at the very hospital that treated him, Adam shares how his experience transformed him from a professional DJ into a future nurse. Motivated by the care he received and inspired by his care team, he's committed to helping others recognize the warning signs and prevent strokes in young adults. Adam opens up about his blood clot disorder, lifestyle habits and the reality that young people can have strokes too. He also shares how his recovery has inspired his 5-year-old daughter, who now wants to become a doctor herself. Tune in to hear Adam's compelling transformation from patient to caregiver, and learn how to protect yourself and your loved ones — no matter your age. Key takeaways: Strokes can happen at any age. Know the signs: sudden numbness, confusion, slurred speech and/or loss of balance Lifestyle choices matter. Blood pressure, diet and movement play critical roles in prevention. Personal stories like Adam's help break the myth that strokes only affect older adults. Purpose can be found even in life's most challenging moments.

Many people have heard about the walking goal of 10,000 steps a day. This advice dates back to a 1960s marketing campaign in Japan. But, experts note that this is only a guideline. 许多人每天听说了10,000个步骤的步行目标。 该建议可以追溯到日本的1960年代营销活动。 但是，专家指出，这只是指导方针。 Shmied said the average American walks about 3,000 to 4,000 steps a day, and it is fine to increase that number to 10,000. Shmied说，美国人平均每天步行约3,000至4,000步，这可以将该数字增加到10,000。 Setting a time goal can also be useful. Shmied suggests dividing the recommended 150 minutes per week into 30 minutes a day, or 10 minutes three times a day, for five days. During rainy or snowy weather, people can walk in malls or on treadmills. 设定时间目标也可能有用。 Shmied建议将建议的每周150分钟分为每天30分钟，或每天10分钟，持续5天。 在多雨或下雪的天气中，人们可以在购物中心或跑步机上行走。 As they become seasoned walkers, they can speed up or walk up hills while still keeping the activity level moderate. 当他们成为经验丰富的步行者时，他们可以加快或走上山坡，同时保持活动水平适中。 “If you can talk but not sing,” Eby said, “that's what we consider moderate-intensity exercise.” 埃比说：“如果你能说话但不能唱歌，那就是我们认为中等强度的练习。”Walking with friends, including dogs, is one way to keep walking.与包括狗在内的朋友同行是继续行走的一种方式。Walking clubs have appeared across the nation. In 2022, 31-year-old personal trainer Brianna Joye Kohn started City Girls Who Walk with a TikTok post inviting others to walk with her in New York. 步行俱乐部已经出现在全国范围内。 2022年，31岁的私人教练Brianna Joye Kohn成立了城市女孩，她与Tiktok帖子一起邀请其他人在纽约和她同行。“We had 250 girls show up,” she said.“我们有 250 名女孩到场，”她说。Since then, the group has walked every Sunday for around 40 minutes, with some meeting afterward for a meal or coffee. 从那以后，该小组每个星期日都走了大约40分钟，随后进行了一顿饭或咖啡。 The Louisville Zoo launched its walking club in 1987. It joined with Norton Healthcare in 2004 to expand it and now has more than 15,000 registered members. Every day from March 1 through October 31, people walk around and around the zoo before it officially opens. 路易斯维尔动物园（Louisville Zoo）于1987年推出了步行俱乐部。它于2004年与诺顿医疗保健（Norton Healthcare）一起扩大了它，现在拥有15,000多名注册成员。 从3月1日至10月31日，每天，人们正式开放之前，人们在动物园周围和周围走动。 Recently, Janet Rapp walked down a path through the city zoo, waving at friends and stopping briefly to greet big flightless birds called emus that she knows by name. 最近，珍妮特·拉普（Janet Rapp）走过一条穿过城市动物园的小路，向朋友挥手，短暂地向她招呼的大型无飞鸟招呼她知道，她知道了。 The 71-year-old retiree starts each morning this way with a walking club. 这位71岁的退休人员每天早晨都有一个步行俱乐部开始。 “I'm obsessed,” she said. Not only does it ease her joint pain, “it just gives me energy…And then it calms me, too.” 她说：“我很痴迷。” 它不仅减轻了她的关节痛，“它只是给了我能量……然后它也使我平静。”

Stronger After Stroke: Driven to Thrive: Tackling Transportation After Stroke In this empowering episode of “Stronger After Stroke,” host Rosa Hart is joined by social worker Caitlin Zoeller, MSW, LCSW, for an honest conversation about one of the biggest hurdles stroke survivors face: transportation. From the emotional impact of losing the ability to drive to the everyday logistics of getting to appointments or simply staying social, transportation challenges can deeply affect independence and quality of life. Together, Rosa and Caitlin unpack the grief many survivors experience, share real-world solutions such as assistive technology and shine a light on local programs that can help. They also talk about the essential role caregivers play and why health care providers must stay informed about resources to better serve their patients. This episode is a must-listen for survivors, caregivers and health care professionals alike — because rebuilding life after stroke means more than just rehab. It means staying mobile, connected and seen. Key takeaways Losing the ability to drive often triggers a grief process for stroke survivors. Many survivors feel reluctant to ask loved ones for rides, fearing they're a burden. Public transportation isn't always accessible or safe for those with mobility challenges. Tools such as GoGoGrandparent offer tech-enabled solutions for nondrivers. Insurance coverage for transportation varies — ask questions and explore options. Caregivers are crucial in managing transportation logistics and emotional support. Community-based programs can fill the gap with rides to medical appointments and more. Health care professionals should educate themselves on transportation resources. Advocacy is essential — raising your voice can spark real change. Staying connected through tech can reduce isolation and foster independence. Want more inspiring stories and real-life resources?

Many medical experts say that walking is an easy way to improve physical and mental health, support fitness and prevent disease. They advise that walking is a great first step toward a healthy life although other forms of exercise are also important. 许多医学专家说，步行是改善身心健康，支持健身并预防疾病的一种简单方法。 他们建议步行是迈向健康生活的重要第一步，尽管其他形式的运动也很重要。Dr. Sarah Eby is a sports medicine physician with Mass General Brigham in the state of Massachusetts. Eby said walking has many good effects and people do not need extra things. “You don't need equipment and you don't need a gym membership,” Eby noted “And the benefits are so vast.” 莎拉·埃比（Sarah Eby）博士是马萨诸塞州大众杨百翰（Mass Brigham）的运动医学医师。 埃比说，步行有许多好的效果，人们不需要额外的东西。 Eby指出：“您不需要设备，也不需要健身房会员资格，而且好处是如此巨大。” The U.S. surgeon general, a federal health officer, recommends that adults get at least two and a half hours of moderate-intensity physical activity every week. 美国外科医生是联邦卫生官员，建议成年人每周至少接受至少两个半小时的中等强度体育锻炼。 Walking helps meet that goal. Exercise lowers the risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, dementia, depression and many kinds of cancer. 步行有助于实现这一目标。 运动降低了心脏病，高血压，痴呆，抑郁症和多种癌症的风险。 Walking also helps blood sugar levels, is good for bone health, and can help people lose weight and sleep better. That is what Julie Schmied said. She is a health care worker with Norton Healthcare in Kentucky, which runs the free Get Healthy Walking Club. 步行也有助于血糖水平，对骨骼健康有益，可以帮助人们减肥和睡眠更好。 这就是朱莉·施米德（Julie Schmied）所说的。 她是肯塔基州诺顿医疗保健公司（Norton Healthcare）的一名卫生保健工作者，该工作人员拥有自由的“健康步行俱乐部”。Walking is also a relatively low-impact exercise that puts less pressure on joints than other exercises while strengthening the heart and lungs. 步行也是一种相对较低的影响运动，比其他锻炼的关节施加较小的压力，同时增强心脏和肺部。 James Blankenship is 68 years old. He said joining a walking club at the Louisville Zoo last year helped him recover after a heart attack and a complex triple-bypass heart operation in 2022. 詹姆斯·布兰肯（James Blankenship）今年68岁。 他说，去年加入路易斯维尔动物园的一个步行俱乐部，帮助他在2022年心脏病发作和复杂的三重伴随心脏手术后康复。 “My cardiologist says I'm doing great,” he said. 他说：“我的心脏病专家说我做得很好。” Some say walking is not enough. Anita Gust teaches exercise science at the University of Minnesota Crookston. Gust said walking “is not enough for overall health and well-being” because it does not provide resistance training that builds muscle strength and endurance. 有人说步行还不够。 Anita Gust在明尼苏达大学克鲁克斯顿大学教授科学。 阵风说，步行“不足以满足整体健康和福祉”，因为它不能提供抗药性训练来增强肌肉力量和耐力。 Some health experts say that is especially important for healthy bone development in women as they age. 一些健康专家说，这对于随着年龄的增长而对女性的健康骨骼发育尤为重要。Experts recommend adding other activities at least twice weekly. These could include using weights, gym equipment or one's own body for resistance exercises. Training that improves flexibility, like yoga or stretching, can also be helpful. 专家建议至少每周两次添加其他活动。 这些可能包括使用重量，健身器材或自己的身体进行抵抗运动。 提高灵活性（例如瑜伽或拉伸）的训练也可能会有所帮助。

  Evaluation and Credit:  https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/medchat74 Target Audience This activity is targeted toward primary care physicians and advanced providers. Statement of Need With the 2023 DEA regulation changes, physicians can now treat patients with Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) without requiring an X waiver. As the demand for treatment providers rises, primary care providers are pivotal in addressing this gap by initiating OUD treatments. Given that primary care often serves as the first point of contact within the healthcare system, it's crucial for providers to identify patients who could benefit from OUD treatment. However, many providers fail to recognize these patients and may refer them elsewhere, missing opportunities for immediate care. Objectives Describe screening guidelines and key diagnostic criteria for Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) Discuss effective medications for the treatment of opioid use disorder (MOUD). Review treatment strategies for MOUD treatment including guidelines for detox in the primary care setting. ModeratorJames T.

Plenty of research shows that pets can help us heal, and now even hospitals are warming up to the idea. On this episode, host Brittany Derrenbacher sits down with Heather Stohr, a certified child life specialist at Norton Children's in Louisville, KY.  Heather manages the facility dog program at Norton Healthcare, which allows animals to play a very important role in the healing process for patients, families, and caregivers. Find out how they are changing lives one hospital bed at a time. In this episode, you'll learn: What a facility dog does in a hospital — and how it changes the way patients heal.
