Medical Mistakes Are America's 3rd Biggest Killer | My Partner Died 25 Years Ago Today 26-83 A quarter century ago, a preventable medical mistake took the life of my partner, Andrew Lee Howard. Today, medical errors are considered the third leading cause of death in America — behind only heart disease and cancer. How did we get here? Why are so many families still suffering because of mistakes that should never happen? In this deeply personal episode of The Karel Show, I open up about grief, survival, loss, forgiveness, and what it really takes to move forward after tragedy. Twenty-five years later, I'm still learning the lessons Andrew taught me: life is too short for meaningless meetings, everyone should grow something, cooking should come from passion, and even in the face of illness, you still have to get up and live. We also talk about HIV/AIDS, caregiving, resilience, and why love sometimes means accepting people exactly as they are. If you've ever lost someone, struggled with grief, or questioned the healthcare system, this episode will hit home. The Karel Show is one of the top independent podcasts covering current events, culture, politics, entertainment, and real life — streaming everywhere from Spotify and Apple Podcasts to iHeartRadio and Spreaker.
Joe Kiani is Executive Chairman at Willow Laboratories and Founder of the Patient Safety Movement Foundation. He makes the point that the vast majority of medical harm is avoidable through the implementation of evidence-based healthcare best practices. Technology, particularly AI and remote monitoring of data from medical devices, is crucial for creating predictive models that can alert clinicians to problems and identify root causes of medical errors. The goal is to unite all healthcare stakeholders to work collaboratively toward zero preventable deaths. Joe explains, "In the US, we lose about 200,000 people a year, and about 15 times that rate is the serious harm caused by medical errors. Worldwide, we think the number is close to three million. And the reason we call it preventable is that the vast majority could be eliminated if evidence-based practices were put in place. As you can imagine, people make mistakes, and there are a lot of medical errors that may not be preventable because there is an evidence-based practice in place to avoid them. But when it comes to things like hospital-acquired infection, VTE, sepsis, failure to rescue, CLATSI, there are known evidence-based practices that, if possible, put them in place, we might get to zero, and if not zero, we'd be pretty close to zero." "Well, honestly, all patients are at risk. If you want to focus on those most at risk, we've got to miss the ones that really go wrong. If we can imagine someone going in for a simple procedure, even a cosmetic one, like a hip replacement, and the procedure goes really well." "But while there's a catheter inside the artery, someone could walk in and, without cleaning their hands, touch the patient, the bacteria could enter the bloodstream and cause a serious infection. So really, you've got to create a culture of safety where you look for ways to mitigate people's mistakes, and those are what we call evidence-based practices. There are about 20 of them, starting with cultural patient safety, on the Patient Safety Movement Foundation website that people can freely download and implement, and therefore not get into these problems." #PatientSafetyMovementFoundation #PatientSafetyMovement #PatientSafety #HealthcareQuality #ZeroHarm #EvidenceBasedPractice #AIinHealthcare #ClinicalSafety #HospitalLeadership #MedTech #CultureOfSafety #PreventableHarm #FailureToRescue #Sepsis #VTE #PatientExperience #ClinicianBurnout willowlabs.ai psmf.org Download the transcript here

High blood pressure disorders during pregnancy, including preeclampsia, can raise a lot of questions and anxiety for expectant parents. In this episode of The MotherToBaby Podcast, host Chris Stallman, genetic counselor, mom of four, and teratogen information specialist, sits down with maternal-fetal medicine specialist and member of the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine (SMFM) Dr. Karen Florio to discuss what pregnant women should know about hypertensive disorders in pregnancy and the role low dose aspirin can play in reducing certain risks. Dr. Florio shares both her professional expertise caring for high-risk pregnancies and her personal experience navigating a high-risk pregnancy herself. Together, Chris and Dr. Florio break down the warning signs of preeclampsia, when to contact a healthcare provider, and why low dose aspirin may be recommended in some pregnancies, even though regular aspirin is typically avoided during pregnancy. The conversation also explores how common hypertensive disorders are, what patients can do to advocate for themselves, and reassuring, evidence-based guidance for anyone currently pregnant and feeling worried about blood pressure concerns. In this episode, we discuss: • What "high blood pressure in pregnancy" and hypertensive disorders actually mean • Signs and symptoms of preeclampsia to watch for • Why low dose aspirin may be recommended during pregnancy • Who may benefit from low dose aspirin therapy • When to reach out to a healthcare provider • How patients can feel informed and empowered during pregnancy About Our Guest: Dr. Karen Florio is a maternal-fetal medicine specialist at the University of Missouri and currently serves as Vice Chair of Patient Safety and Quality for the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, as well as Director of Labor and Delivery. Her work focuses on hypertensive disorders of pregnancy and heart disease in pregnancy, and she has held leadership roles with Missouri's Pregnancy-Associated Mortality Review Board and the Missouri Perinatal Quality Collaborative.

What if the most important thing you did today wasn't on your task list? In the final episode of Your Health University's Values Series, host Jamie Preston brings back the full Patient Experience Team — Jennifer Kistler, Kim Metz, Whitney Myers, Carlos Heyward, and Rebecca Dillard — to explore the value that brings every other one to life: Service. Not the idea of it. The real, daily, roll-up-your-sleeves version that shows up in 60 extra seconds, one extra phone call, and the moments when you decide not to leave someone when they need you most. What you'll hear in this episode: Whitney's story of refusing to leave a patient on his worst day — and what true service looks like when the moments count most Carlos's creative solution for a patient in Charleston who keeps falling — and the phone call she made just to say thank you Rebecca's respiratory therapists who change cat litter boxes and wheel trash cans to the curb — because they noticed, and they could Kim's ICU story: braiding the hair of ventilated patients who couldn't do it themselves, because I would want someone to do that for me Jamie's deeply personal account of his wife's breast cancer diagnosis — and the profound difference between a healthcare team that says "this is what you need to do" and one that asks "what do you think?" Carlos's challenge to every listener: don't just adopt these values at work — make them yours Service is the reason you got into this. It's the thing that makes the hard days worth it and wakes you up the next morning ready to go again. Press play — and let this episode remind you exactly why what you do matters. www.YourHealth.Org
In this episode, we talk with ophthalmologist Dr. Jennifer Grin about a practical, high-yield approach to evaluating eye complaints, documenting findings, and knowing when to urgently refer. The conversation covers a breakdown of an “easy eye exam” any clinician can do from starting with visual acuity as the eye's vital sign to realistic expectations for the fundus exam. Dr. Grin reviews warning signs such as sudden vision loss, abnormal pupils, flashes/floaters with a curtain (retinal detachment), and concerning trauma. She also highlights common pitfalls like mislabeling serious diseases like conjunctivitis, missing open globe injuries, and prescribing topical steroids or anesthetics without a clear diagnosis.

Live from the 19th World Congress of Anaesthesiologists (WCA 2026) in Marrakesh with over 4,000 delegates from 150 countries, TopMedTalk's Kate Leslie and Mike Grocott interview Professor Adrian Gelb, past World Federation of the Societies of Anaesthesiologists (WFSA) president, about his career from South Africa to Canada and UCSF and his focus on lower-resource settings, patient safety, and WHO engagement. Gelb argues patient safety improvements require system and workflow changes, not just guidelines. The comparison is drawn to road safety reforms and urging anesthesiologists to use their leverage in hospitals and governance. He reflects on the impact of Harvard monitoring standards and leadership that advanced safety, and calls for national societies to prioritize patient-centered advocacy and implementation support using human factors and knowledge translation expertise. He also describes work on WHO essential medicines lists and proposes a tiered, anesthesia-led WFSA essential medicines list by country income level via a global Delphi process, ending with a call for anesthesiologists to choose to lead again.

Most organizations put "Collaboration" on a wall. Few actually live it — and in healthcare, the cost of not living it isn't a missed deadline. It's a missed patient. In the first episode of Your Health University's brand-new Most organizations put "collaboration" on a wall. Few actually live it — and in healthcare, the cost of not living it isn't a missed deadline. It's a missed patient. In the first episode of Your Health University's brand-new Our Values Series, host Jamie Preston gathers four members of Your Health's patient experience team — Rebecca Dillard (VP of Organizational Experience), Jennifer Kessler (Division President of Product), Whitney Myers (Senior Solutions Advisor), and Carlos Hayward (Business Office Manager) — for an unfiltered conversation about what genuine collaboration looks like inside a fast-moving, mission-driven healthcare organization. No theory. No platitudes. Just the real, messy, mundane, and occasionally remarkable daily practice of people choosing to work together when it would be easier to go it alone. What you'll hear in this episode: Why real collaboration means recognizing what the person next to you brings that you simply cannot replicate — and building toward that, not around it The true story of a patient found living in an RV without his medication — and how cross-team collaboration made the difference between crisis and care Where collaboration most commonly breaks down in healthcare settings, and the small documentation and communication habits that prevent it The one question — "How can I do my job differently to make yours better?" — that builds trust across departments faster than almost anything else The daily habits these four healthcare professionals actually practice to keep collaboration alive, from weekly team check-ins to learning someone's preferred communication style before you assume Collaboration isn't a value you perform. It's a choice you make — one conversation, one phone call, one honest mistake admitted at a time.

Send us a MessageIn this episode of Culture Change RX, Sue Tetzlaff sits down with healthcare security expert Tony York to explore the evolving role of safety and security in healthcare environments.Tony shares insights from more than three decades in healthcare security, discussing how the challenges facing hospitals today are very different from those of the past. From workplace violence and behavioral health challenges to evolving technology and building design, healthcare organizations must now take a much more proactive and strategic approach to protecting their staff, patients, and visitors.The conversation highlights why security should not simply be viewed as guards or enforcement, but as a system designed to support a therapeutic care environment where staff can focus on delivering care and patients can feel safe receiving it. Sue and Tony also discuss how leaders can begin building a culture of shared responsibility for maintaining safe healthcare environments.Resources mentioned in this episode:Connect with Tony York on LinkedInConnect with PalAmerican Security (US) or Paladin Security (Canada)Resources available at International Association for Healthcare Security & Safety IAHSS.orgIAHSS Conference - New Orleans - April 12-14, 2026Purchase the book We're stepping forward in a bigger way—growing our team of rural healthcare experts, growing our capabilities by adding a strategic planning division … all of this so we can expand our ability to help even more rural hospitals and other small healthcare organizations in 2026. … We'd love to explore how we can support your organization in being the provider- and employer-of-choice so you can keep care local and margins strong!

Blame rarely makes care safer, but understanding the system usually does. In this episode, Professor Charles Vincent, a clinical psychologist and leading patient safety researcher, explains how harm often emerges from a chain of small breakdowns, not from a single “bad” decision, and why the better question is “what in the system allowed this to happen?” He unpacks how the fixation on individual error can miss deeper contributors, such as fatigue, poor supervision, weak monitoring, clunky equipment design, noise, distraction, and communication that is not truly heard. You will hear why disrespectful behavior and hierarchy are safety risks, how simple routines like surgical safety checklists can change whether people speak up, and why healthcare struggles to name the trade-off between pushing volume and protecting safety. Tune in and learn how a systems lens, respectful teamwork, and real trade-offs can make care safer. Resources: Connect with and follow Prof. Charles Vincent on LinkedIn.

Protecting nurses and healthcare workers physically and mentally is not just one component of the Safer Together National Action Plan; it may be the one that holds all the others together. In this third episode of our Safer Together series, Patricia McGaffigan, RN, MS, Vice President of Safety at IHI, President of the Certification Board for Professionals in Patient Safety, and co-chair of the National Steering Committee for Patient Safety talks with Christine Pabico, Senior Director of the American Nurses Credentialing Center's Pathway to Excellence and Well-Being Excellence Programs. Patricia and Christine trace the development of ANCC's Well-Being Excellence Credential, the first of its kind to encompass the entire workforce across every type of care setting. We also hear from two of its pilot organizations, Children's National Hospital in Washington, D.C., and BayCare Health System in Tampa Bay, to hear how they became certified through the ANCC Wellbeing Certification and what that means for their organizations.

In the second episode, Kelly Randall, PhD, Vice President for Patient Safety and Regulatory Services at Ascension, where she leads the health system's comprehensive patient safety program, high reliability strategy, and system-wide deployment of the Safer Together National Action Plan, showed us what it looks like to answer that call, shifting culture across nearly 100 hospitals, one huddle, one conversation, one near-miss at a time.

More than 25 years after To Err Is Human put patient safety on the national agenda, the crisis persists. The WHO estimates that 1 in 10 patients worldwide experiences harm during medical care, and half of it is preventable. And yet one foundational factor remains overlooked: the well-being of the people delivering care. With more than half of nurses reporting burnout and hundreds of thousands expected to leave the profession, the workforce crisis and the patient safety crisis are now one and the same. In this Insight from Episode 123: Safer Together | The Architecture of a Movement, Donald Berwick, MD, MPP, FRCP, President Emeritus and Senior Fellow at IHI and former Administrator of CMS, and Patricia McGaffigan, RN, Vice President at IHI and President of the Certification Board for Professionals in Patient Safety, make the case that healthcare must look beyond its own walls, drawing on lessons from aviation and other industries, to build cultures where psychological safety, dignity, and the freedom to speak up are the foundation of safe care. Not sentiment but essential reality.
