My guest for Episode #523 of the Lean Blog Interviews Podcast is Mike Eisenberg. He's been a filmmaker since 2010 with his production company, Tall Tale Productions, after completing his B.A. in Journalism at Marietta College in Ohio. Episode page with video, transcript, and more Mike's father, Dr. John Eisenberg, was a leader in national patient safety efforts as the director of the Agency for Healthcare Research & Quality (AHRQ) until his passing in 2002. His legacy is prevalent throughout Mike's presentation, as well as his approach. His new documentary, released last September, is titled “The Pitch: Patient Safety's Next Generation.”  He previously joined us in Episode #329, where we discussed his film "To Err is Human." In 2006, Mike was drafted by the Cleveland Indians in the MLB Draft and played 3 seasons of professional baseball before beginning his filmmaking career. He now speaks at hospitals, universities, and conferences, where his insight provides a new perspective on a problem that persists across the globe. In today's episode, we explore the evolution of patient safety and the transformative role of technology in healthcare. The conversation dives into how innovations—from advanced command centers to cutting-edge virtual reality and AI applications—are redefining how hospitals prevent and respond to medical errors. The discussion challenges the conventional blame-and-shame approach and instead highlights the importance of building systems that foster trust and resilience among healthcare professionals and patients alike. We also examine the nuances of integrating technology into complex healthcare environments, discussing how effective communication, standardized protocols, and smart design can work together to minimize human error. Drawing insightful parallels with industries like aviation, the episode offers a fresh perspective on the critical need for systemic improvements and the potential for new technological solutions to drive the next generation of patient safety. Questions, Notes, and Highlights: How is technology transforming patient safety in healthcare? What role do advanced command centers, virtual reality, and AI play in preventing medical errors? How can healthcare shift away from a blame-and-shame culture? What strategies build trust and resilience among healthcare professionals and patients? How do effective communication, standardized protocols, and smart design minimize human error? What lessons can be learned from the aviation industry regarding safety and error management? What challenges arise when integrating technology into complex healthcare environments? How can innovation drive the next generation of patient safety?

Register here January 25, 2023, 1 to 2 pm ET A panel discussion with: Karen Wolk Feinstein, PhD, President and CEO of the Pittsburgh Regional Health Initiative Ken Segel, CEO of Value Capture Moderated by Mark Graban, Value Capture The Institute of Medicine's groundbreaking report, To Err is Human, was published 20 years ago and spurred a vigorous effort to improve patient safety, but preventable medical errors still cause an estimated 250,000 deaths a year in the United States, making this problem the third-leading cause of death. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic has put the healthcare workforce in crisis, and safety is suffering. Well-intentioned efforts to improve processes and change behavior in the healthcare industry have been decentralized and resulted in minimal improvements, says Karen Wolk Feinstein, Ph.D. The failure can be traced, in part, to the lack of a single federal agency that investigates healthcare errors and identifies ways to prevent them, she says. Dr. Feinstein is spearheading the creation of a proposed federal independent agency, the National Patient Safety Board (NPSB), modeled in part after the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) and the Commercial Aviation Safety Team, that would identify and anticipate significant harm in healthcare; provide expertise to study the context and causes of harm and solutions; and create solutions to prevent patient safety events from occurring. This idea is fully supported by Ken Segel, as he has discussed in this blog post. He will join Dr. Feinstein for the discussion. In December, legislation was introduced into the U.S. House of Representatives: H.R.9377 – the National Patient Safety Board Act.

98,000. A number that when put into context is really sobering. In 1999, the IOM published a study in "To Err is Human" finding that as many as 98,000 people die each year from medical errors. So what is the number today? While some have made educated guesses, due to a number of different factors, the true number is unknown. So, what do we as caregivers, as nurses do about it?This is the first episode in a three-part series focusing on safe practice. In this first part, we explore four patient stories about the impact of medical errors. We share our perspectives on these, but more importantly, how they could be prevented. We share practical "walk-aways" for each story that can be put into practice immediately. Ultimately, zero harm is the only acceptable number. ---------------------------------Be sure to connect with us on Instagram:@realnurses_pcSend questions, topic ideas, or comments to realnursespc@gmail.com

One of the silver linings of the pandemic has, in fact, been, the expansion of telehealth services and virtual care delivery. The pandemic has also accelerated the healthcare industry's transition from fee-for-service to value-based care. The continued growth of telehealth is fueled by providing incentives for care delivery in the lowest cost settings, identifying and interacting with highest-risk individuals before disease onset, managing care teams with more efficient workflows, and taking advantage of digital remote technologies. Virtual care is an easy and cost-effective path to achieve value-based care, thereby improving health outcomes and patient satisfaction across a broader population of patients. Our guest this week, is Dr. Carrie Nelson, the Chief Medical Officer for Amwell, a leading digital care and telemedicine company.  Dr. Nelson is a seasoned physician leader committed to healthcare transformation. She has demonstrated success in innovation and change management, physician engagement, solution development and deployment, value-based care, managing and coaching other leaders and delivering results.  Before joining Amwell as Chief Medical Officer and President of their Amwell Medical Group, she served as the Senior Vice President and CMO for Population Health and Health Outcomes at Advocate Aurora Health.  She also served as the Chief Clinical Officer for Advocate Physician Partners, a benchmark organization known internationally for delivering value-based care in collaboration with about 5000 employed and independent physician practices. With more than 28 years' experience as a Family Medicine provider, Dr. Nelson is an innovative physician leader with a proven track in quality improvement, patient safety and population health.

The Command to Forgive

The Last Two WeeksOver the last two weeks, we have explored two distinct but related topics: first: judging actions, not people, and second: how ideology can come at the expense of charity and kindness. Those topics are foundational for any conversation on forgiveness. So, if you have not read or listened to those, I highly recommend going back and viewing those first!To Err is Human, to Forgive, DivineAlexander Pope, in his poem An Essay on Criticism written in 1711, says, “To err is human, to forgive divine.” This comes from an old Latin proverb errare humanum est (to err is human). Erring is easy. We do it all the time. We make silly mistakes and sometimes we make big mistakes. We can be selfish, careless, ignorant, or down-right malicious.Every human being sins and falls short of the glory of God (cf. Rom. 3:23). We all need forgiveness. Why then is it so darn hard to forgive sometimes? Maybe we are waiting for the apology that never comes. Maybe we have tried to make things right but it falls on deaf ears.Given our fallen world, it seems that forgiveness is just out of reach, a lot of the time. This is why Alexander Pope says that forgiveness is divine. Do we need the omnipotence of Almighty God to muster up forgiveness? Or perhaps, paradoxically, we need to emulate the sublime humility of God to forgive others?Do We Need to Forgive? - Natural OrderIs it necessary to forgive? Do we need to forgive? If it is so difficult, perhaps it would be easier to forgo the exercise and just move on? The problem with this is that resentment can build. Forgiveness is important for our physical and mental well-being. As the Catholic author Bert Ghezzi puts it in his 1980 book The Angry Christian, “Resentment is like a poison we carry around inside us with the hope that when we get the chance we can deposit it where it will harm another who has injured us. The fact is that we carry this poison at extreme risk to ourselves.”Phrased another way: unforgiveness and resentment is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die. If we do not let go, this resentment will kill us. Before you get too deep into resentment, remember that most people err out of ignorance. Malice certainly exists. People do bad things out of malevolence; it would be naive to think otherwise. But it would be a mistake to assume malice. Instead, apply “Hanlon's razor” - “never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.” I am not suggesting we assume everyone is stupid. Remember to judge actions and words, not people. However, it is far more charitable to assume someone is acting out of misguided passion or ignorance rather than malice. Do We Need to Forgive? - Supernatural OrderWhat about in the supernatural order, spiritually-speaking? Our Lord Jesus lays it all out on the line for us: “For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you, but if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses (Mt. 6:14-15).”We are all sinners in need of God's forgiveness. Accordingly, it is not only a good idea to forgive; it is absolutely necessary for salvation. Our Blessed Lord shows us also in the Gospel of St. Mark that, “whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone, so that your Father also who is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses (Mk. 11:25).”  Our forgiveness of others is plainly concomitant with the forgiveness that we receive from God. Jesus Himself teaches us to pray to the Father with these words, Father: “... forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors (Mt. 6:12).” Hearing this alongside the other two passages calling for us to be forgiving, the necessity is clear. But Jesus makes it even clearer in St. Matthew's Gospel right after giving us the Our Father prayer. He says, “For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you, but if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses (Mt. 6:14-15).”The call to forgiveness is so important that it needs to be put forcefully and plainly. If you and I do not forgive others, we will go to Hell. The call is that simple. This act, however, is not simple; in fact, it is impossible for man. But with God, all things are possible. He gives us the grace in His Holy Spirit and through the merits of His Cross.Forgiving Even Our EnemiesForgiveness is one of the most powerful acts of love. It is requisite, if we are to love. This is all well and good when the person who needs to be forgiven is a friend, family member, or acquaintance, but what about when the person is our enemy? Jesus says at the end of the Sermon on the Mount:“43 You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' 44 But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. 46 For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? 47 And if you greet only your brothers, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same? 48 You therefore must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect (Mt. 5:43-48).”For a brief reflection on this last line about perfection, check out “The Perfect is the Enemy of the Good” from a couple weeks back, here on Will Wright Catholic!We must love even our enemies and this means forgiving them.Radical Forgiveness, In ChristOne of the most poignant examples in recent memory comes from Corrie Ten Bloom. She was a Dutch woman who was arrested by the Nazis for hiding Jews. She survived countless horrors in the Ravensbrück concentration camp. Later, in 1947, in a church in Munich, she saw one of the vicious guards of Ravensbrück. Since the war, this vile man had become a Christian. After her talk, he approached her and asked her for forgiveness. By the power of Jesus, Corrie Ten Bloom did forgive that Nazi guard. This is the strength God gives us to overcome anger, if we only ask.  It would have been easy for Corrie Ten Bloom to give into hatred of this guard who had caused her so much suffering. It would have been easy for her to curse the man and walk away. A compelling argument could even be made that he would have deserved to be treated like dirt.  She describes this moment, frozen before the former guard, as one of the most difficult things she has ever had to do. She cried out in the silence of her heart to Christ saying, “Jesus, help me! I can lift my hand. I can do that much. You supply the feeling.” Of course, Jesus answered. He desired for forgiveness to win the day, as it always does. She put out her hand describing being filled with a “healing warmth.” Tears came to her eyes and she said, “I forgive you, brother. With all my heart.” The love of God has a power that cannot be explained in words. This forgiveness is impossible for man, but with God all things are possible. This radical love and forgiveness is only possible with Jesus Christ. He Himself said, “Father, forgive them” of the Romans while suffering His agonizing passion and death.Are We Forgiven?Okay. We can forgive our friends, family members, and acquaintances, and even our enemies. But, what about forgiving ourselves? Sometimes the hardest person to forgive stares back at us in the mirror each morning. Again, the only way to truly forgive ourselves is to love ourselves. To get to this point of humility, we have to see ourselves how God sees us. We need to deeply experience His love, mercy, and forgiveness. You might be thinking: that's fine for other people, but I'm pretty awful. I mean, I suck. Well… first of all, shush. No you don't. In the future, we are going to talk about the difference between conviction and condemnation. Suffice it to say, the former is a gift from God and the latter is from the pits of Hell. What does God reveal to us about His merciful forgiveness? Above all, He showed us the depths of His love from the Cross. Jesus Christ is sinless and blameless, but for our sake, for our sins, He endured the weight of the Cross. He suffered, died, and rose so that we might be forgiven. We share in His merits because He made us coheirs with Him through Baptism. What a gift!God Alone Blots Out Our TransgressionsGod alone can forgive sins. Furthermore, we need Him to see our faults clearly. As the Psalmist says, “Who can discern his errors? Declare me innocent from hidden faults (Ps. 19:12).” As an aside, this is why I end my confession in the Sacrament of Penance with some iteration of: “and for all the other sins I have forgotten, I am sorry.” I am not saying this to “cover my bases;” I am giving thanks to God for declaring me innocent from hidden faults.Only when we receive God's love and mercy with an open heart will we be truly happy. As the Psalmist says, “Blessed is the one whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered (Ps. 32:1).” How do we become so fortunate? How do we receive this divine forgiveness?!? Simple: we ask. As Pope Francis says rightly and so often: “God never tires of forgiving us.” We need only ask for His forgiveness with a contrite heart. Then, we receive the promise of Jeremiah: “I will cleanse them from all the guilt of their sin against me, and I will forgive all the guilt of their sin and rebellion against me (Jer. 33:8).”Further, by a true miracle, it is as if our sins did not exist. To illustrate the point, God speaks through the Prophet Isaiah saying, “I, I am he who blots out your transgressions for my own sake, and I will not remember your sins (Is. 43:25).” The Psalmist echoes the same joyous song: “as far as the east is from the west, so far does he remove our transgressions from us (Ps. 103:12).”When and How Many Times Must We Forgive?It is clear that God forgives us when we are contrite and ask for His forgiveness. He never tires of forgiving us. Every single time you or I commit the same sin that we confessed last time. Every time we find new ways to offend the Lord. He does not stop His mercy. As long as we have breath in our lungs, we can receive His forgiveness. What, then, should our response to this gratuitous mercy be? It should be gratitude, first. What a beautiful gift to continually be drawn back to our Heavenly Father by our Lord Jesus Christ in the power of the Holy Spirit, the Paraclete. Second, we should do likewise. In the Gospel of St. Luke, Jesus says this:“Pay attention to yourselves! If your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him, and if he sins against you seven times in the day, and turns to you seven times, saying, ‘I repent,' you must forgive him (Lk. 17:3-4).”Likewise, in St. Matthew's Gospel, Jesus is asked by St. Peter: “Lord, how often will my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? As many as seven times?” Jesus replies, “I do not say to you seven times, but seventy-seven times (Mt.18:21-22).” Here, Jesus is not saying that we forgive seventy-seven times but to heck with them on the seventy-eighth time. It simply means an uncertain and inscrutable number - as many times as it takes.This is not an excuse to sin, nor is it a free pass for the offender. Right before this passage Jesus says to His disciples: “Tempations to sin are sure to come, but woe to the one through whom they come! It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck and he were cast into the sea than that he should cause one of these little ones to sin. Pay attention to yourselves… (Lk. 17:1-2,3a).”But when someone does offend us, in sin, but then asks for our forgiveness, who are we to deny them? We cannot judge people. We judge actions. We can judge rightly that an action against us was immoral or imprudent, but we cannot judge the offender's heart and soul. So, following the command of Jesus, we forgive - as many times as it takes.The only way for this platform to grow is for you to get the word out!

The Case RaDonda Vaught was a 39-year old registered nurse serving as the "help-all" nurse (for which there is no specific job description) at Vanderbilt University Hospital on Dec. 26, 2017.  She also had an orientee. She was asked to go down to Radiology PET scan and administer the medication Versed to 75-year old Charlene Murphey who had been hospitalized for a subdural hematoma, because she was not able to tolerate the PET scan procedure or else they would have to send the patient back and reschedule it. She pulled the medication from the Pyxis and put the medication vial in a baggie and wrote on the baggie, "PET scan, Versed 1-2 mg" and went to Radiology to administer the medication to Murphey. Since she had never been to PET scan before, she had to ask for directions, and once she found it, she checked the patient for her identity, and told her she was there to give him/her something to help him/her relax. She administered the medication and then left the area without continuing to monitor the patient.  The Errors The facts currently understood in this case show that Vaught committed at least ten errors when administering the medication to her patient. These errors include, but are not limited to:  -Searching for the medication by trade name instead of generic, despite being trained to the contrary.  -Selecting vecuronium instead of midazolam or Versed, even though she reports that she was looking for Versed.  -Overriding the warning indicating a none-prescribed medication had been selected (potentially could be excused given the documented EMR issues at Vandy) five times -Ignoring a warning that the selected medication was a paralytic.  -Failing to note the red all-caps paralytic warning on the cap.  -Failing to note that the medication name on the vial did not match what was ordered or what she was looking for.  -Failing to take action to further verify the medication after noting that the medication was in powdered form when the prescribed medication should have been packaged in liquid form (by her own admittance, she found this “odd”).  -Following the instructions for reconstitution on the vial again without noting that the medication name did not match what was prescribed and that the concentration did not match what was commonly carried in the hospital.  -Actually administered the wrong dose of the wrong medication (1 mg vecuronium instead of the ordered 2 mg versed).  -And, last but not least, failing to monitor the patient, even briefly, for any adverse effect after administering the medication. The Outcome Within the hour, the Transporter found the patient unresponsive and the Radiology Technician called a rapid response and started CPR. By the time Nurse Vaught arrived, the patient had been intubated and the heart rate had returned to normal. Nurse Vaight told the team that she had administered Versed to the patient only a few minutes before.  Vaught stated RN #2 approached him/her and asked, "Is this the med you gave Ms. Murphey?" and Vaught responded "yes." Vaught then stated RN #2 said, "This isn't Versed, It's Vecuronium." Vaught then went into Murphey's room and informed Physician #2, and the NP that she had made a mistake and administered Vecuronium to Murphey instead of Versed. Murphey was declared brain dead on January 27th and removed from life support. She died a short time later. So....Why Might This Be a Good Thing? The "Go Along" Attitude Clinicians often violate the written policies of the organization because the organization does not want or expect the written policies to be followed.  Murphey's care alone required at least 20 cabinet overrides in just three days, Vaught said. "Overriding was something we did as part of our practice every day," Vaught said. "You couldn't get a bag of fluids for a patient without using an override function." https://www.wesa.fm/2022-03-22/as-a-nurse-faces-prison-for-a-deadly-error-her-colleagues-worry-could-i-be-next When peers face criminal charges for "going along," the willingness to "go along" comes to a screeching halt, and they will "work to rule".   Employees can force organizations to stop the "paper policy" model by simply demanding that they be allowed to comply with the actual written rules of the organization. If the policy says that you need to check out your truck before responding to a job, then refuse (yes, REFUSE) to take a job until you have completely checked out your truck. That's not insubordination, that's the policy of the organization. The Martyr Problem Clinicians also sacrifice their short- and long-term health and safety in order to try to correct long-standing system problems.  At several places where I once worked, the BLS crews would transport every patient, no matter how minor, to the hospital with red-lights-and-sirens in order to get available as soon as possible because the system did not have enough ambulances to respond to all of the jobs in the city in a reasonable time.   Worse, it is common in many places for clinicians to work for less-than-sustenance wages and meager or even non-existent benefits instead of EMS systems demanding that local government appropriately fund EMS costs that are not covered, BY DESIGN, by health insurance.  When peers face criminal charges for mistakes made (such as recently happened in Hamilton Paramedics Steve Snively and Christopher Marchant in Ontario), the willingness to be a Martyr dissipates once they see that the system does not value their sacrifice.  You're never going to get enough ambulances if you keep trying to fix the deficit by regularly risking your life. It is actually a compensatory mechanism that is working against your (and your community's) long-term interests. Plus, if you hit a kid going to the hospital with red-lights-and-sirens with a stable patient, what do you think your department will do- back you up or fire you because you "violated department policy?"

Thinking Critically: A D&D Discussion

This episode I'm joined by Rev from The CritShow, the Powered by the Apocalypse podcast, to talk about the consequences of our actions. We agree that any consequence, positive or negative, must fit the the scale and scope of the inciting activity. This can be achieved by a sliding scale; it doesn't always have to be The Worst Possible Outcome for any given misstep. An element of PbtA games is how the GM can work with the players to build that shared narrative, something explicitly missing from D&D 5e. But with this collaborative approach to consequences, a larger degree of trust is required to ensure both the GM and the players are effectively working together for the benefit of the table. Of course, actions don't stop in-game, and there must also be considerations made for IRL actions, for better and for worse. Rev & I discuss some tools and tactics for dealing with potential misaligned and misguided players. 00:58 - Consequential Collaboration Slide 11:02 - Well if it Isn't the Consequences... 36:05 - Of My Own Actions 46:05 - To Err is Human Find Rev on: Twitter: https://twitter.com/RevDeschain The Critshow Website: https://thecritshowpodcast.com/ Find Thinking Critically on: Website: https://www.thinkingcritically.co.uk Twitter: https://twitter.com/ThinkCritDnD Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thinking_critically_dnd/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ThinkingCriticallyDnD YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCH_BSgazjwyshzo1jazHeaQ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/thinkingcritically Ko-fi: https://ko-fi.com/thinkingcritically Patrons: Robert Hartley @RobertHartleyGM: https://www.patreon.com/RobertHartleyGM Optional Rule @optionalrule: https://www.optionalrule.com/ Matthew Perkins @mperkinsDM: https://www.matthewperkins.net/ Matt Street @mpstreet88: https://www.virtualtimehustle.com/ Intro Music: 'Local Forecast' by Kevin MacLeod Intermission Music: 'Chill' by Kevin MacLeod Outro Music: 'Local Forecast - Elevator' by Kevin MacLeod

Curses of Modern Medicine (Audio)  David Eells - 12/15/21  NIH and Fauci Hospital Protocols are Killing Covid -19 Patients (Video) COVID-19 is NOT a “Pandemic of the Unvaccinated.” The most appropriate term is “Pandemic of Medical Malpractice.” Hospital protocols, and not COVID-19, have accounted for a significant portion of deaths. One of the biggest culprits is the drug Remdesivir. The antiviral drug manufactured by Gilead Sciences has remained a central component of the standard hospital protocol for COVID-19 patients. But the toxic drug is responsible for catastrophic side effects like multi-organ-dysfunction syndrome and kidney failure. None other than Anthony ‘Fraudci' and his NIH cronies were behind pushing the dangerous drug for COVID-19 patients. Remdesivir Background To understand the severity of this scandal, let's briefly review some background of how Remdesivir came into use for COVID-19. Remdesivir is a nucleotide analogue prodrug originally developed for the treatment of Ebola virus. A New England Journal of Medicine study claimed that a single United States COVID-19 patient showed improvement after taking Remdesivir. Coincidentally, the Wuhan Institute of Virology sought a patent for the use of Remdesivir. But at the height of COVID-19, the NIH picked Remdesivir as the gold standard treatment for COVID-19. Anthony Fraudci cited the drug's effectiveness against Ebola as the reasoning for its use against this novel coronavirus. Fraudci used this New England Journal of Medicine study to back his claims. A closer look at this study below: Remdesivir was pulled from the study due to 53.1% of recipients dying from the drug. Who supported that study? The NIH & NIAID. Another New England Journal of Medicine study Fraudci used to push Remdesivir as a COVID-19 treatment analyzed 53 patients from the United States, Canada, Europe, and Japan. This is what the study found: Seven of the 53 patients (13%) died after the completion of Remdesivir treatment, including 6 of 34 patients (18%) who were receiving invasive ventilation and 1 of 19 (5%) who were receiving noninvasive oxygen support ... The median interval between remdesivir initiation and death was 15 days (interquartile range, 9 to 17). A total of 32 patients (60%) reported adverse events during follow-up. The most common adverse events were increased hepatic enzymes, diarrhea, rash, renal impairment, and hypotension. In general, adverse events were more common in patients receiving invasive ventilation. A total of 12 patients (23%) had serious adverse events. The most common serious adverse events — multiple-organ-dysfunction syndrome, septic shock, acute kidney injury, and hypotension — were reported in patients who were receiving invasive ventilation at baseline. Despite these alarming studies, Remdesivir was pushed on the general public as the standard hospital protocol for COVID-19 patients. Cheap, off-label drugs like Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) and Ivermectin were targeted in a vicious smear campaign. The patents for HCQ and Ivermectin expired decades ago, meaning they don't line the pockets of pharmaceutical companies and hospital executives. The toxicity and catastrophic kidney damage caused by Remdesivir provided the ultimate setup to blame deaths caused by the drug on COVID-19 and the federal health agencies made a fortune buying the stock of Remdesivir, an experimental drug at the time. The Blaze highlighted how Remdesivir is the greatest scandal of the “pandemic:” ... why would we run the risk of spending $3,000 a person on a therapeutic that doesn't work anyway if it may create immune escape? Which raises the question: Why are we not treating everyone early with therapeutics like Regeneron, ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, and other proven safe, cheap, and effective drugs that don't case renal failure like remdesivir and don't run the risk of inducing mutations? This is particularly important for those who are immunocompromised. The last thing people who already have fragile organs should be taking is remdesivir. In many respects the fact that remdesivir was ever approved and is still the only standard of care, as it kills patients and lines the pockets of both hospitals and the maker, Gilead, is possibly the worst scandal of this entire ordeal. On Feb. 5, Reuters reported that none other than the Wuhan Institute of Virology of the China Academy of Sciences sought a patent on Gilead's remdesivir, a failed drug repurposed from treatment of Ebola, based on the alleged improvement of a single individual COVID patient reported in the New England Journal of Medicine. Incidentally, the only drug ever approved for COVID was developed by Dr. Ralph Baric's lab at UNC Chapel Hill, the same lab that applied for the coronavirus spike protein gain-of-function research and is suspected by many to be behind the creation of this virus.    Minnesota Doctor Blasts ‘Ridiculous' CDC Coronavirus Death Count Guidelines  (VIDEO) Fox News - 4/9/20 Dr. Scott Jensen, a Minnesota family physician who is also a Republican state senator, told "The Ingraham Angle" Wednesday that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) guidelines for doctors to certify whether a patient has died of coronavirus are "ridiculous" and could be misleading the public. Host Laura Ingraham read Jensen the guidelines, which say: "In cases where a definite diagnosis of COVID cannot be made but is suspected or likely (e.g. the circumstances are compelling with a reasonable degree of certainty) it is acceptable to report COVID-19 on a death certificate as 'probable' or 'presumed.'”  In response, Jensen told Ingraham the CDC's death certificate manual tells physicians to focus on "precision and specificity," but the coronavirus death certification guidance runs completely counter to that axiom. "The idea that we are going to allow people to massage and sort of game the numbers is a real issue because we are going to undermine the [public] trust," he said. "And right now as we see politicians doing things that aren't necessarily motivated on fact and science, their trust in politicians is already wearing thin." Jensen gave a hypothetical example of a patient who died while suffering from influenza. If the patient was elderly and had symptoms like fever and cough a few days before passing away, the doctor explained, he would have listed "respiratory arrest" as the primary cause of death. "I've never been encouraged to [notate 'influenza']," he said. "I would probably write 'respiratory arrest' to be the top line, and the underlying cause of this disease would be pneumonia ... I might well put emphysema or congestive heart failure, but I would never put influenza down as the underlying cause of death and yet that's what we are being asked to do here." Jensen then told Ingraham that under the CDC guidelines, a patient who died after being hit by a bus and tested positive for coronavirus would be listed as having presumed to have died from the virus regardless of whatever damage was caused by the bus. "That doesn't make any sense," he said. Jensen also reacted to Dr. Anthony Fauci's response to a question about the potential for the number of coronavirus deaths being "padded," in which the NIAID director described the prevalance of "conspiracy theories" during "challenging" times in public health. "I would remind him that anytime health care intersects with dollars it gets awkward," Jensen said. "Right now Medicare has determined that if you have a COVID-19 admission to the hospital you'll get paid $13,000. If that COVID-19 patient goes on a ventilator, you get $39,000; three times as much. Nobody can tell me, after 35 years in the world of medicine, that sometimes those kinds of things [have] impact on what we do. "Some physicians really have a bent towards public health and they will put down influenza or whatever because that's their preference," Jensen added. "I try to stay very specific, very precise. If I know I've got pneumonia, that's what's going on the death certificate. I'm not going to add stuff just because it's convenient.”   Past Statistics: Deaths by medical mistakes hit records HealthcareITNews - By Erin McCann - 7/18/14  Update: Since this article below was written, accidental medical deaths have reached 440,000 a year: In July of 2014 senate hearing exposed 400,000 people each year die of medical mistakes, over a thousand a day. This is the third largest killer in U.S. Between 210,000 and 440,000 patients each year who go to the hospital for care suffer some type of preventable harm that contributes to their death. How Many Die From Medical Mistakes in U.S. Hospitals? Keep this in mind as you read the article below. All the percentages of danger below have risen dramatically. "Witchcraft" or "sorcery" in the New Testament is from the Greek word "pharmakeia"; English "pharmacy" - Healing through the use of drugs. [See etymonline.com and dictionary.com.] Of Babylon it was said: (Rev.18:23)... for with thy sorcery were all the nations deceived.    It's a chilling reality – one often overlooked in annual mortality statistics: Preventable medical errors persist as the No. 3 killer in the U.S. – third only to heart disease and cancer – claiming the lives of some 400,000 people each year. At a Senate hearing Thursday, patient safety officials put their best ideas forward on how to solve the crisis, with IT often at the center of discussions.  Hearing members, who spoke before the Subcommittee on Primary Health and Aging, not only underscored the devastating loss of human life – more than 1,000 people each day – but also called attention to the fact that these medical errors cost the nation a colossal $1 trillion each year.   "The tragedy that we're talking about here (is) deaths taking place that should not be taking place," said subcommittee Chair Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., in his opening remarks. [See also: EHR adverse events data cause for alarm.] Among those speaking was Ashish Jha, MD, professor of health policy and management at Harvard School of Public Health, who referenced the Institute of Medicine's 1999 report To Err is Human, which estimated some 100,000 Americans die each year from preventable adverse events.  “When they first came out with that number, it was so staggeringly large, that most people were wondering, 'could that possibly be right?'" said Jha.  Some 15 years later, the evidence is glaring. "The IOM probably got it wrong," he said. "It was clearly an underestimate of the toll of human suffering that goes on from preventable medical errors." It's not just the 1,000 deaths per day that should be huge cause for alarm, noted Joanne Disch, RN, clinical professor at the University of Minnesota School of Nursing, who also spoke before Congress. There's also the 10,000 serious complications cases resulting from medical errors that occur each day.  Disch cited the case of a Minnesota patient who underwent a bilateral mastectomy for cancer, only to find out post surgery a mix-up with the biopsy reports had occurred, and she had not actually had cancer...       "Why is it when a death happens one at time, silently, it warrants less attention than when deaths happen in groups of five or 10?" he asked. "What these numbers say is that every day, a 747, two of them are crashing. Every two months, 9-11 is occurring…we would not tolerate that degree of preventable harm in any other forum.”   In the hearing's closing questions, when Sanders inquired as to why this crisis was not constantly splashed across front page news, he was met with this: "When people go to the hospital, they are sick. It is very easy to confuse the fact that somebody might have died because of a fatal consequence of their disease, versus they died from a complication from a medical error," Jha said. "It has taken a lot to prove to all of us that many of these deaths are not a natural consequence of the underlying disease. They are purely failures of the system. Journal of The American Medical Association declared there was 450,000 deaths a year from iatropic causes. Iatropic means doctor related causes. This is from years ago. So what is it now after 750,000 people have died in the US for the same reason. But as we're going to see, it's a lot worse than this.   Recent: 40+ Jaw Dropping Medical Malpractice Statistics Etactics: By Butterfly Meltzer - 7/29/21 Medical malpractice happens more often than most might think and when it does, it's not a “cried wolf” scenario. Doctors do make mistakes, but sometimes the actions classified as malpractice are intentionally taken. Naive, inexperienced, and/or simply bad physicians, unfortunately, exist in all fields of medicine. Whether they're a surgeon, psychologist, primary care physician, or therapist, malpractice can occur across any specialist role. The result can lead to permanent injury and even death. The consequences can be severe and victims often have no choice but to take legal action. Here are over 40 statistics about medical malpractice: General Malpractice Malpractice can occur in many forms across different segments of the healthcare industry. To get a true understanding though, you need to look at healthcare as a whole.  You should probably start with the reputation of the doctor in question. Maybe previous patients have sued that doctor in the past. Maybe they have a high rate of misdiagnosis or other medical errors. From nursing homes to outpatient therapy, billing errors to misprescribing, malpractice can happen anywhere.  The average person who files medical malpractice claims is 42 years old. (University of California) 10% of all U.S. deaths are now due to medical error. (Johns Hopkins) 99% of physicians face at least one lawsuit by age 65. (New England Journal of Medicine) New York had the highest amount of medical malpractice in the US (16,688 reports) from 2009 to 2018. (NPDB) North Dakota had the lowest amount of medical malpractice in the US. (126 reports) (NPDB) 37% of malpractice claims reviewed resulted in payments (The Doctors Company) It's estimated that 7,000 to 9,000 patients die every year from medication errors. (My Medical Score) 5-10% of all physicians have had sexual contact with patients. (American Medical Association) Medical Overuse Many people agree that doctors tend to overprescribe medicines. There have been countless stories that link the opioid pandemic to overprescribing. Patients are often given too much medicine that ends up doing more harm than good. As a result, the overuse of medical practices can lead to medical malpractice. If a patient receives tests, treatment, and medication that they don't need, the patient will most likely have unnecessary expenses. 15-30% of 2000 physicians surveyed in a study believe most medical care is not needed. (Johns Hopkins) 22% of prescription medications are unnecessary 24.9% of medical tests do not need to happen 11.1% of procedures do not need to take place 30% of outpatient antibiotic prescriptions are unnecessary. (CDC) 20% to 50% of antibiotics prescribed in US acute-care hospitals are unnecessary or inappropriate. (CDC) 27% of doctors say that patients receive antibiotics when drugs won't help. (WebMD) Medical Misdiagnosis So maybe you have certain symptoms that are easily confused between those of several different issues. As a result, your doctor misdiagnoses you and gives you medicine that you don't actually need. But does that count as medical malpractice? As with most situations in healthcare, it depends.  Misdiagnosis can lead to surgeries you don't need, medicines that negatively affect your health, and treatment that can lead to permanent damage. In severe cases, medical malpractice that involves misdiagnoses can lead to death. Roughly 12,000,000 American misdiagnoses happen each year (My Medical Score) Over more than 100,000 Americans die or are permanently disabled each year due to medical diagnoses that initially miss conditions or are wrong or delayed. (Johns Hopkins) Nearly ¾ of all serious harms from diagnostic errors occur around vascular events, infections and cancers. (Johns Hopkins) 37.8% are cancers  22.8% are vascular events 13.5% are infections 21% of patients receive an outright wrong diagnosis on their first visit to a doctor. (Mayo Clinic) 66% of patients get a diagnosis that may be on the right track but isn't quite accurate or complete. (Mayo Clinic) 12% of all patients who seek second opinions end up with the same diagnosis they started with. (Mayo Clinic) 22% of malpractice claims filed by hospitalized patients were diagnosis-related. (University of Michigan) 38% of malpractice claims against physicians involving the treatment of children involved a misdiagnosis. (The Doctors Company) Around 5% of outpatients receive misdiagnosis. (BMJ Journal) Surgical Malpractice Any kind of surgery can be terrifying. That's why you should always ask questions before giving consent for surgery. When medical malpractice happens during surgery, feelings of confusion overwhelm patients. They may feel that their doctors abused their trust. Not to mention they could also be in serious pain if something during the operation went wrong. From the patient perspective, they should arm themselves with knowledge in case something goes wrong. 85% of surgeons are likely to get into a lawsuit  (The High Court) About 16.7% of 2000 physicians surveyed said that they performed unnecessary procedures for profit (John Hopkins) A little more than 4,000 surgical errors occur each year (My Medical Score) 39 surgeries per week end up with a surgical tool, like a sponge, left inside patients  20 operations per week occur on the wrong body part 20 wrong surgical procedures occur on a patient per week 59% of surgical errors only resulted in temporary injuries (My Medical Score) 40% of surgical errors resulted in permanent injuries or death (My Medical Score) Mental Health Malpractice There are many myths surrounding mental health but medical malpractice isn't one of them. Surgery usually can't fix mental health issues. Diagnosis can really only occur through the evaluation of symptoms, and many mental health issues have similar symptoms. This is especially true for children. If doctors overprescribe opioids and antibiotics, it's safe to say that that carries into mental health. Doctors also prescribe medicines that don't actually help the illness, so naturally, this can happen in the mental health world as well.   41% of US psychiatrists faced a malpractice lawsuit at least once (Medscape) ⅓ of psychiatrists managing their legal risk between 2015 and 2016 had claims involving incorrect treatment. (Sommers Schwartz) 20% were for medication issues 15% involved suicides or suicide attempts 6% percent were for misdiagnosis. More than 60% of people who receive a diagnosis of major depression don't actually have it (Johns Hopkins) Of 706 people surveyed, only 15% received a prompt diagnosis, while 85% experienced diagnostic delay (Bridges to Recovery) Among the 85% delayed, 71% said that their symptoms had become worse as a result of receiving inappropriate treatment 47.3% of 50,000 patients were correctly identified with depression by general practitioners (Bridges to Recovery)   A 2008 study found that 57% of adults diagnosed with bipolar disorder did not meet diagnostic criteria upon more comprehensive diagnostic review. (Brown University School of Medicine)  According to the table of Iatrogenic Deaths In The United States linked here , We could have an even higher death rate by using Dr. Lucien Leape's 1997 medical and drug error rate of 3 million. (14) Multiplied by the fatality rate of 14% (that Leape used in 1994 (16) we arrive at an annual death rate of 420,000 for drug errors and medical errors combined. If we put this number in place of Lazorou's 106,000 drug errors and the Institute of Medicine's (IOM) 98,000 medical errors, we could add another 216,000 deaths making a total of 999,936 deaths annually.   CDC - Iatrogenic Deaths “Disappeared" in 2020, COVID-19 Took Their Place  For decades up until 2020 CDC annual reports listed medical error (iatrogenic) deaths as the third-leading cause of death in the US. The only change in that annual "ranking" of deaths was in the last 5 years cancer sometimes overtaking heart disease as a leading cause of death in the US and most other Western ("developed") countries.  Now, the latest CDC report has completely removed the iatrogenic category  and COVID-19 deaths have taken that third place. If the CDC had simply moved the iatrogenic deaths up or down the list, it would have been at least a debatable issue. However, the complete disappearance of medical error deaths exposes directly the fraud. Iatrogenic deaths can't just vanish in a single year.  In fact, if the hospitals were full to brim with patients in 2020 then iatrogenic deaths would be much higher than prior years. Btw, the "unintentional injury" category on 4th place covers "life accidents". They are counted separately from iatrogenic deaths, so one cannot argue that iatrogenic deaths moved to 4th place. Unless I am missing something, this may be the most direct admission yet by the powers that be that the COVID-19 death numbers are completely fake. Either no COVID-19 deaths occurred in 2020 or all of them were iatrogenic in nature so one can swap the names on 3rd place. So, either we have a blatant, public, demonstrable and irrefutable lie or public admission by CDC of genocidal medical interventions for all COVID-19 patients who died in hospitals in 2020.   Attorney Thomas Renz – All New Whistleblower Information Rumble — Attorney Thomas Renz Releases Stunning Data from Never Before Seen Vaccine Injury/Death Tracking System Thanks to a Whistleblower that came forth to Attorney Thomas Renz, the public is now seeing, for the first time ever, hard data from the largest database available in the U.S. to study the COVID-19 impact including deaths & injuries; The CMS Medicare Tracking System.  During an extraordinary speech at Clay Clark's ReAwaken America Tour, Attorney Thomas Renz shocked the crowd of thousands in attendance and millions watching via livestream as he revealed: That data from the Medicare Tracking System reveals that 19,400 people less than 80 years old have died within 14 days of receiving the COVID-19 Vaccine. In addition, 28,065 people have died that are over the age of 80 within 14 days of receiving the Covid-19 vaccine. The Total number of American Citizens that died within 14 days of receiving the COVID-19 vaccine is 48,465 according to hard data revealed in the Medicare Tracking System. In July attorney Renz's whistleblower, under penalty of perjury, stated that she estimated at least 45K people had died from the Covid-19 Vaccine. USA Today Fact Checkers and other fact checking services claimed that to be “mis-information.” Today's revelations solidify that the “Trusted News Initiative” is actually the source of mis-information and propaganda, and that Attorney Thomas Renz's whistleblower was correct all along. After proving that over 45K people have died from the COVID-19 vaccine, Attorney Renz then moved his attention to focus on the amount of people that are being killed in American hospitals by Dr. Anthony Fauci's instituted protocol of Remdesivir. Attorney Renz is also in possession of Remdesivir death data from the Medicare Tracking System that has been withheld by the government from our citizens. The Remdesivir data reveals of the 7,960 beneficiaries prescribed Remdesivir for Covid-19,  2,058 died. That is 25.9%. 46% of people died within 14 days of the Remdesivir Treatment. The Remdesivir Treatment was established in U.S. Hospitals at the direction of Dr. Anthony Fauci. Serious adverse events were reported in 131 of the 532 patients who received Remdesivir. That is 24.6%. Attorney Renz says ” This begs the question… Why is this the protocol in American Hospitals? Does this appear “Safe and Effective” to you?” RENZ's NURSE WHISTLEBLOWERS REVEAL TWO TIER SYSTEM OF CARE DEPENDING ON YOUR VACCINE STATUS During Attorney Thomas Renz speech at Clay Clark's ReAwaken America Tour in Colorado Springs, Colorado Renz also talked about 2 Whistleblower nurses that revealed to him that they have seen a 2 tier system of health care depending on the patients “vaccination status.” “The nurses revealed to me that patients that are vaccinated are getting Ivermectin, which is proven to heal people. But if you are unvaccinated, they put you on Remdesivir in the hopes that you will die” said Attorney Thomas Renz. THE FDA IS TRACKING VACCINE DEATHS, ALL THE WHILE CLAIMING THE COVID VACCINE IS SAFE AND EFFECTIVE Also during Attorney Renz' speech he revealed that the FDA is actively working with CMS real-time data ( CMS Medicare database ) to gather weekly reports on Covid-19 adverse events, despite the fact that the US population is told repeatedly this vaccine is “safe and effective.” Attorney Renz says “This information has never been given to the public, and you will see why they have kept it hidden and never published. It's very damning, and this data reveals that the FDA knew what was coming, let it happen, and thousands and thousands have died or been injured.” During his speech Renz revealed in one state alone ( New York ) that the amount of people who experienced adverse events after the Covid shot were in the thousands. Adverse events experienced by people who got the Covid-19 shot in New York State included thousands of cardiovascular events, thousands of cases of people getting Covid, and thousands of deaths. At least 13 side effects are reported in the system. “Remember, these are “side effects” that the government, media, and social media continue to tell the public that are not happening. The mantra of “safe and effective” must stop after today's information” says Attorney Renz. A copy of Attorney Renz entire speech along with data from the hidden vaccine tracking system will be posted on his website at www.Renz-Law.com    Proof That They Knew! Renz said, Our data comes from a whistleblower with access to CMS data. CMS data includes billing, prescribing, treatment, and all other information related to beneficiary treatment – that is how the government knows how much money to send healthcare providers. This info was all recognized by the US Department of Defense in the presentation we found and reposted on www.renz-law.com  Our whistleblowers have searched this data to provide these numbers. This data is being hidden from be public but would be easily searchable for government analysts using the same searches we did. Our question – why aren't our elected officials and bureaucrats searching for this information and sharing it? Percentage of Americans covered by Medicare in 2019: 18.1% 59.4 Million People. 18% of 330 Million is: 59,400,000 Total Medicare Budget: $899 Billion (2020) Largest data base available in the U.S. to study COVID-19 trends. It includes all claims: vaccine dates, treatment dates, death dates, adverse events, hospitalizations. It is not self-reporting like VAERS. As you can see in the information that was excerpted from a presentation by the FDA, they are tracking the data we are presenting here. In other words they know or should know this info.

But if I should trespass and violate this Oath, may the opposite be my lot. www.csun.edu   Apollo in Greek Mythology Apollo is in many respects the paradigm of a Greek god. He represents order, harmony, and civilization in a way that most other Olympian deities cannot quite equal. One only has to compare him with Dionysos to understand how Apollo is depicted as a bright, rational counterpart to the chaotic and frenzied god of wine and women. Indeed, Apollo is most often associated with the cultivated arts of music and medicine, and his role as the leader of the Muses establishes him as a patron of intellectual pursuits. Pronunciation - {a-pol'-lo} Etymology - "Destroy or excite" Other names - Apollon (EDITOR'S NOTE: The angel of the abyss is Apollyon, meaning destroyer.) (EDITOR'S NOTE: Witchcraft or Sorcery in the New Testament is from the Greek word Pharmakia; English Pharmacy; Healing through the use of drugs. Of Babylon it was said, (Rev.18:23)... for with thy sorcery were all the nations deceived.)  In Greek mythology, Asklepios (Asclepius) was the god of healing. He was the son of the Olympian god Apollo and a mortal woman named Coronis.    Asklepios (Roman Aesculapius) The Hesiod places Aesculapius' origin in Thessaly where he lived in a subterranean cleft with both a serpent and a hound as companions. Born of the god Apollo and the mortal woman Coronis (a "former" virgin of the Lapithae), Aesculapius was raised by the centaur Chiron, from whom he learned the art of healing and became a physician. (EDITOR'S NOTE: This healer God is an imitation of Jesus. This god is supposedly born of an earthly mother and a god (Son of God) he supposedly raised the dead etc. The physicians symbol, the serpent on a rod, was an imitation of Moses serpent that was lifted up in the wilderness, which pointed to Christ the healer. This god is clearly a false Christ.)  According to Greek legend, patients seeking healing would sleep the night in the temple of Aesculapius. During the night, Aesculapius would appear to the patient in a dream, accompanied by his daughter, the goddess Hygieia, and by a serpent who followed Aesculapius wherever he went. At that point, Aesculapius would treat the patient in the dream, often by having the serpent lick his or her wounds. In the morning, the patient would awaken healed. As a result, throughout history, the symbol of the physician has been, and continues to be, the Staff of Aesculapius, a wooden staff with a SINGLE serpent entwined. Many readers, however, are probably more familiar with the Caduceus, which is the winged staff of Hermes, the messenger of the gods, with TWO intertwined serpents. His followers established temples called Asclepions, temples of Asklepios, temples of healing. The greatest asklepion was in a grove of trees south of Corinth, Greece where the sick had to spend a night while the proper remedies were revealed during a dream to the priests of the temple and the cured had to make a suitable sacrifice (usually a rooster) to the god. According to mythology, Asculapius had a number of children including Hygieia, the goddess of health (from whose name comes the word "hygiene") and Panaceia, the goddess of healing (from whose name comes the word "panacea" for a universal remedy). Today, the staff of Aesculapius is a commonly used symbol of medicine. It is the symbol of the American Medical Association (AMA) and many other medical societies. Chiron taught Asclepius the art of healing. According to Pindar (Pythian Odes), Asclepius also acquired the knowledge of surgery, the use of drugs, love potions and incantations. www.loggia.com   Physician Humor.........or is it? Original Author unknown - David's notes in red These statistics are very outdated but are far worse now and they do prove a point. Think about this: Statistically, doctors are approximately 9,000 times more dangerous than gun owners. (These numbers have now skyrocketed) a. The number of physicians in the US is 700,000. b. Accidental deaths caused by Physicians per year is 120,000. (We just proved that this number, as of the early 2,000's, is closer to 1 million.) c. Accidental deaths per physician is 0.171. (US Dept. of Health & Human Services) Then think about this: a. The number of gun owners in the US is 80,000,000. b. The number of accidental gun deaths per year (all age groups) is 1,500. c. The number of accidental deaths per gun owner is .0000188. Statistically, doctors are approximately 9,000 times more dangerous than gun owners. FACT: NOT EVERYONE HAS A GUN, BUT ALMOST EVERYONE HAS AT LEAST ...ONE DOCTOR! Please alert your friends to this alarming threat. We must ban doctors before this gets out of hand! As a public health measure I have withheld the statistics on lawyers for fear that the shock could cause people to seek medical attention.    Man's Methods or God's Glory What we've seen so far has proven that the curse of God is in trusting in man. Jer 17:5  Thus saith Jehovah: Cursed is the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from Jehovah. (God has a method that never fails but it is foolishness to man.)  But God chose the foolish things of the world, that he might put to shame them that are wise; and God chose the weak things of the world, that he might put to shame the things that are strong; and the base things of the world, and the things that are despised, did God choose [yea] and the things that are not, that he might bring to naught the things that are: that no flesh should glory before God (1 Cor.1:27-29). God's methods will always be considered foolish, weak, base, and despised by the world and the worldly church… In my past experiences, at the end of all of my works to save myself by man's methods, God gave me faith to see His works. God's method was faith in Him combined with my own weakness. He said, "[my] power is made perfect in weakness" (2 Cor.12:9). Faith is foolish, weak, and base to the world but it brings God's power... Worldly methods failed me, but faith in the promises brought the most awesome deliverance. Glory to God! Recently, I watched a report on antibacterial soaps on the national news. They reported that the net effect was that they were not wiping out bacteria, but making them resistant. What did penicillin do but make antibiotic resistant bacteria for which there is no medical cure on the horizon? Poisons on the crops, to try to destroy the curse, go into the water supply and cause a multitude of diseases. Read your toothpaste tube; fluoride is a deadly poison. The Journal of the American Medical Association Vol. 284, July 26, 2000, reported that doctors are the third leading cause of death in the U.S., causing 250,000 deaths every year from iatrogenic causes! (Now over 450,000 and this does not including the medical murders being committed because of CV-19.) Iatrogenic is defined as induced in a patient by a physician's activity, manner, or therapy, used especially of a complication of treatment. If this is what their organization admits, what is the truth? The numbers are much higher. If, as some believe, this is God's preferred method of healing today, He is surely making a lot of mistakes. I have a good doctor friend who prefers to not use drugs. He has told me how he prays for patients who will believe, with results. The problem is that most are not interested in deliverance from their curse if it takes repentance and faith so he does what he can. My mother took a drug for years. One day she was reading an article by Reader's Digest on the side effects of medicines. The side effects of the drug she was on were breast cancer and glaucoma, and she had them both. That was a terrible trade. My father's favorite doctor told him after an examination, "One thing I am sure of, you are not going to die of a heart attack. You have the heart of a much younger man". About a month later, he had a serious heart attack. I became convinced it was because of a drug he was taking to put oxygen into his blood because he lost a lung to smoking. Two close friends took a drug that had a side effect of damaging their kidneys. Their doctors admitted this in both cases. Man shifts the curse around and sometimes multiplies it, but he cannot deliver by his own efforts. If he could, then Jesus' death was for naught. I believe it is God's purpose that we understand that there is no permanent deliverance from the curse except God's deliverance through Jesus Christ. The world's deliverance is a deception, because, ultimately, their gods fail them. God wants us to see through that. We have been told that God now uses modern methods for delivering us from the curse. God's method is always free. It is salvation by grace, which is the unmerited, unpaid for, favor of God. Neither Jesus nor His disciples charged anything for healing, deliverance, provision, or any other form of salvation. The world's method always cost. The poor often go untreated until they die. In God's kingdom, all are treated on condition of faith. God desires to use the same method He used in the Scripture, the word of faith, because it is the only one that does not give glory to man. If a Christian receives a recovery from some disease while under the care of doctors and medicine, everyone wants to know what the medicine was or who the doctor was. God will not share His glory with another. I am not condemning those who use doctors or medicine. I offer the good news that Jesus has already healed you almost 2,000 years ago. Reading the New Testament once shows that God did not use the methods of man. In the coming wilderness we will need to understand this. Soon God's people will not be able to buy or sell with the world. Then all will be forced into a wilderness experience where there will be no idolatry with the gods of this world. For the people of God in the wilderness there will be a great lack of doctors, medicine, lawyers, bankers, psychiatrists, insurance, food, clean water, and public assistance of all types. Then we will see God's power in man's weakness (2 Cor.12:9-10). The churches' methods of obtaining provision today are the same as the world's methods and are therefore acceptable to it. God has a peculiar method for ministering deliverance from the curse that costs nothing, gives no glory to man, and proves His sovereignty. (1 Cor.1:28) And the base things of the world, and the things that are despised, did God choose, [yea] and the things that are not, that he might bring to nought the things that are: (29) that no flesh should glory before God We see here that God chose to use something that does not exist in the physical realm in order to destroy the things that do. The "things that are not" are the promises in the Word that we do not see fulfilled. The "things that are" are the cursed things of sin, sickness, and lack, which God wants to "bring to nought". For example, if you are sick, that is a thing that is; but "by whose stripes ye were healed" is a thing that is not in the physical realm. God chose faith in His promises "that are not" in order to bring to naught the sickness. Jesus and the disciples used God's method for dealing with the curse by calling "the things that are not, as though they were" (Rom.4:17). They just commanded it done according to the promises. They did not choose "the things that are", like doctors, medicine, psychiatrists, banks, and such to "bring to naught the things that are", like sin, sickness, torment, lack, debt, etc. The things that appear in this realm are the things that are and are all under the curse. (Heb.11:3) By faith we understand that the worlds (Greek: "ages") have been framed by the word of God, so that what is seen hath not been made out of things which appear. God's method is to use the Word and not the physical things that appear, just as in the Gospels and Acts. In anointing with oil, it is obviously not the oil but the faith that heals. Oil is just a symbol of the Holy Spirit. Paul's handkerchief did not heal; it was the power from his faith (Acts 19:12). Some might think that once Jesus also used things such as when He made clay with His spit to heal a blind man in John 9:6-7. It was not the clay that healed his eyes, but the washing it out of his eyes; clay symbolizes the Adamic nature and the things that are (Job 10:9; 33:6; Isa.29:16; 45:9) just as man was made from clay. In other words, our eyes must be cleansed of seeing through eyes of clay. We need the spiritual eyes to see the promise as done by faith. (2 Pet.1:3) Seeing that his divine power hath granted unto us all things that pertain unto life (Greek: zoe, "God's life") and godliness.... To have spiritual eyes, we must see that Jesus has already given us His life and blessings. We need to be cleansed of fleshly eyes that keep us from God's blessings. ... The natural man (of clay) receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him; and he cannot know them, because they are spiritually judged (Greek: "examined" or "seen") (1 Cor.2:14). By the way, the spit from Jesus' mouth symbolizes that which comes out of the mouth of the Lord that gives life to man, the Word or manna (Dt.8:3; Jn.1:13; 6:33,51). I once knew a preacher who said, "The reason Paul did all those miracles was because Luke the physician was with him". Wrong! Not in one verse do we see Luke using physician skills, which could never result in a miracle. The Greek word iatros is falsely translated "physician" but it just means "healer". Iatros is also used of Jesus as "healer". Translators put their modern ideas here. "Physician" means "one who practices medicine", which Jesus and the apostles never did. The term used for drugs or medicine in the Greek is pharmakia (English: "pharmacy") and is translated "witchcraft" or "sorcery", which Paul called a work of the flesh in Galatians 5:20. The nations are deceived with pharmakia (Rev.18:23). Luke was a healer in the same way Jesus and the other disciples were. It should seem strange to these people that Jesus and his disciples did not use "the things that are" to administer healing or deliverance. If Paul's handkerchief had the power to heal, why could it not heal before he touched it? It only acted as a medium to carry the healing anointing to the sick by faith. I have prayed over handkerchiefs, water, or people as mediums and seen healings. A brother, whose wife was very sick, came into our meeting. He was very troubled and on the edge of tears about this. The brother was not yet convinced that he needed to be filled with the Holy Spirit. Asking the Lord in my thoughts what to do, it came to me to pray over him to impart healing power to him, which we did. Then I said, "Now brother, go lay hands on your wife, and she will be healed". He was not convinced that healing was our right today, but he went home to lay hands on his wife. When he did, she was healed, and he came back excited. You see, it is not the medium; it is the healing power manifested through it, or in this case him, by faith. Jesus imparted authority to the disciples to heal before they received the Holy Spirit. So how do we use God's method of "the things that are not"? By calling "the things that are not, as though they were" (Rom.4:17). In other words, agree with the promise and call it done. God chooses to use "the things that are not, that he might bring to nought the things that are: that no flesh should glory before God" (1 Cor.1:28-29). God does not desire to use man's inventions so that only He can brag. God's salvation is not by our works. It is by getting our eyes off the problem and on the promise. 2 Corinthians 4:17-18 teaches that our affliction will be temporary if "we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen". When the Israelites got their eyes off the snake bite (curse) and on the serpent on the pole (Christ who became our curse [Jn.3:14]), they were healed (Num.21:49). As we saw, Paul's "thorn in the flesh" had nothing to do with sickness but a demon that was bringing him into humbling circumstances where he was weak to save himself so God's power was present to save him. His advice to Timothy puts a question in some concerning the use of remedies. In the text we can see that sin is the subject before and after the verse in question. (1 Tim. 5:22) Lay hands hastily on no man, neither be partaker of other men's sins: keep thyself pure. (23) Be no longer a drinker of water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities (Greek: asthenia; meaning "weaknesses"). (24) Some men's sins are evident, going before unto judgment; and some men also they follow after. (25) In like manner also there are good works that are evident; and such as are otherwise cannot be hid. The word sometimes translated "infirmities" is actually "weaknesses" and is clearly seen in other texts where the same word is correctly translated. (1 Cor.1:25) ... The weakness of God is stronger than men. Now we know that God is not infirm or sick so this word has to be "weakness". (2 Cor.13:4) For he was crucified through weakness, yet he liveth through the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him through the power of God toward you. We know that Jesus Christ was not crucified through infirmity, but weakness because He would not defend Himself when He was brought before Pilate and the Jewish leaders. Timothy had spiritual weaknesses for which the only cure was the spiritual wine of the nature of Jesus. The stomach or belly was spiritually considered the seat of rulership for the carnal man. It represented being driven by the lusts (Greek: "desires") of the flesh, driven by sin. (Php.3:19) Whose end is perdition, whose god is the belly, and [whose] glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things. Peter called those who returned to their sins, "the sow that had washed to wallowing in the mire". The sow best identifies those who are servants to their flesh's appetites. On the other hand, wine was considered the cure for bondage to sin. Wine represents the blood of Jesus. (Mt.26:27) And he took a cup(of wine), and gave thanks, and gave to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; (28) for this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many unto remission of sins. (29) But I say unto you, I shall not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom. Through our own blood we have inherited the lusts of the sinful flesh and through Jesus' pure blood that nature is destroyed. (Lev.17:11) For the life of the flesh is in the blood; and I have given it to you upon the altar to make atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh atonement by reason of the life. His blood is in us to the extent that we repent and partake of the life of His Word. (Jn.6:53) Jesus therefore said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood (wine), ye have not life in yourselves. (54) He that eateth my flesh and drinketh my blood hath eternal life: and I will raise him up at the last day. Partaking of the blood or wine is a matter of walking in His Word by faith in His blood that was given to us. (1 Jn.1:7) But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanseth us from all sin. The combined fruitful faith that resides in the true body of Christ is the answer to the question of why Isaiah commanded a cake of figs for Hezekiah's boil. (Isa.38:21) Now Isaiah had said, Let them take a cake of figs, and lay it for a plaster upon the boil, and he shall recover. The figs here represent the Body of Christ or Israel as in Jesus' warnings about bearing fruit. (Lk.13:6)And he spake this parable; A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came seeking fruit thereon, and found none. (7) And he said unto the vinedresser, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why doth it also cumber the ground? (Rev.6:13) and the stars of the heaven (Abraham's seed) fell unto the earth, as a fig tree casteth her unripe figs when she is shaken of a great wind. Jesus identified the righteous as being under the fig tree when He saw Nathanael there as an Israelite without guile (Jn.1:47 50). Notice that in the verse before the "cake of figs" was laid on the boil, faith was expressed to God by the body for Hezekiah's healing as the saints in the "house of the Lord" were praising God for this. It was the figs' faith that sucked the poison out of the boil. (Isa.38:20) The Lord is [ready] to save me: Therefore we will sing my songs with stringed instruments All the days of our life in the house of the Lord. The cake of figs was a natural parable that represented a spiritual happening just as in Jesus' parables of planting wheat and corn, etc. See God's Vaccine   Please read our book Faith for all Things

Humanity and human interactions make medicine beautiful, but they also make error and failure inevitable parts of the field. Failures in medicine range from struggles on medical school exams and pimp questions to medical error, and in each of these situations, we benefit ourselves and our patients by treating “failures” as opportunities to learn and grow rather than as shameful secrets. Within a three part series on Failure in Medicine, we explore medicine's deep-seated discomfort with “failure” and ways we can better manage our mistakes. For part 1 of this series, we talk with Dr. Thalia Krakower, an Internal Medicine physician at Massachusetts General Hospital about her piece “To Err is Human, To Apologize is Hard” in which she describes her family's experience suffering from medical error and what it highlighted about the medical field. Dr. Krakower's story emphasizes the importance of confronting medical mistakes personally, institutionally, and with patients.

Failing Forward for Success in Value, with Dr. Jesse James

The difference between average people and achieving people is their perception of and response to failure.  “Failing Forward” was a concept defined by John C. Maxwell several years ago, and that axiomatic truth could not be more readily apparent than in value-based care.  Transforming healthcare to lower costs and improve patient outcomes is tough work. PERIOD.  It requires many years of experimentation and “trial and error” innovation. The suffering index in the value movement can be immense, but the returns – in both financial success and personal/professional fulfillment – make it a purposeful endeavor. Dr. Jesse James, the Chief Medical Officer for CHESS Health Solutions, is a leader in the value movement who believes in Failing Forward as a key to success in value-based care.  In his role, he oversees quality and clinical services for a population health management company that supports more than 3,000 providers and 150,000 patients. Dr. James joins us this week to show us that as leaders in value, “We must be willing to fail forward. “It's our scar tissue that makes us stronger.”  Tune in this week to learn from one of the best!  In this episode, Dr. James provides leadership and business insights that are profoundly helpful for physicians, executives, and entrepreneurs looking to win this Race to Value. Episode Bookmarks: 04:20 Dr. James' “defining moment” when he found his calling to practice medicine 06:00 The decision to begin a medical career at the bedside and then working at the system-level to transform healthcare 07:30 Dr. James' early work in clinical quality and the influence and mentorship of Dr. Cary Sennett (“The Godfather of Quality Measurement”) 08:45 The permission to fail bestowed by a mentor has been a constant reminder to “Be Humble” in the practice of medical leadership 11:00 The legendary basketball coach John Wooden on how "Failure is not fatal, but failure to change might be." 12:25 “As a leader, you have be willing to fail forward.

“Just like water and food we need sleep, and so every time we lose it we jeopardize our own health and the health of others”- Dr. Linda D. ScottIn this episode it was a delight to interview Dr. Linda Scott, the Dean of Nursing at University of Wisconsin-Madison about her research on nursing fatigue and the impact on safety.Early in the interview Dr. Scott shares she was motivated to embark on such important research when the To Err is Human was published by the Institute of Medicine in 1999 and reported there were almost 100,000 deaths associated with preventable errors. At that time Linda says it was clear there was a gap in scientific evidence regarding the number of nurse work hours and the relationship to making errors.Dr. Scott reveals her initial studies showed nurses worked long shifts and worked overtime regularly and the risk for error tripled when working more than 12 hours and doubled when working overtime beyond any shift and that errors increased when nurses had insufficient sleep. These initial studies demonstrated the need to learn more about work related fatigue and the potential impact on patient safety.Dr. Scott explains when people are awake for a consecutive number of hours you can see some of the same neuro- bio-behavioral affects as you would with intoxication, as an example when you are awake for more than 15 hours it’s like having a blood alcohol level of .05. During the interview she shares when you have a sleep deficit you can’t get it back and for every hour of sleep lost the risk for making an error increases by 7%. Dr. Scott explains what decision regret means and how it is related to fatigue and sleep deficits and is a personal and professional well-being issue.The research studies are transferrable to other health professions. There are other research studies looking at physicians and other ancillary staff as well as other safety critical positions. It was also noted during the interview that there is no regulatory oversight on hours in the United States for health professions.Dr. Scott reveals there are recommendations coming from other industries that reflect nursing and other health professions and could inform the healthcare sector.You probably already realize this is a phenomenal and eye-opening interview.

Creating a New Healthcare

Welcome to Episode #104 (Season 4) of Creating a New Healthcare. I’m delighted to welcome back to this podcast Dr. Don Berwick - one of the leading authorities on healthcare quality & improvement over the past few decades.  Dr. Berwick is President Emeritus and Senior Fellow at the Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI), an organization that he co-founded and led as President and CEO for 18 years. In July 2010, President Obama appointed Dr. Berwick to the position of Administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), which he held until December 2011. An elected member of the Institute of Medicine (IOM), Dr. Berwick served two terms on the IOM’s governing Council, and was a member of the IOM’s Global Health Board. He served on President Clinton's Advisory Commission on Consumer Protection and Quality in the Healthcare Industry. His body of work & contributions to the field of healthcare quality & safety are unparalleled, including two classics: the 1999 IOM report, ‘To Err is Human’ and the 2001 IOM report, ‘Crossing the Quality Chasm’. In 2005, he was appointed “Honorary Knight Commander of the British Empire” by Queen Elizabeth II, the highest honor awarded by the UK to non-British individuals, in recognition of his work with the British National Health Service. To say that Dr. Berwick brings a seasoned perspective on the current state of our healthcare system and the challenges we face as a nation is, to put it mildly, an understatement. What distinguishes Dr. Berwick even more than his record of accomplishment or his brilliant mind is his tireless reminders of the ethical responsibility we have to attend to the health of the American public - especially for those of us who are providers, administrators, policy makers, health insurance companies, as well as pharmaceutical and device manufacturers. A relevant quote from one of Dr. Berwick’s recent articles underscores this responsibility;  “Fate will not create the new normal; choices will.”  In this episode, we’ll cover a range of topics, including the following:Dr. Berwick’s recent article, Choices for the “New Normal” - which is a call-to-action and a leadership roadmap outlining crucial choices in six critical domains that will play a significant role in determining the future of healthcare delivery.Inequality and Inequity -  the relative lack of social support services provided in the US as compared to other developed nations; which Dr. Berwick describes as “the most notable wake-up call”.An ethical reframing of the social determinants of health, described in his recent article, The Moral Determinants of Health; along with some shocking statistics on inequities related to poverty, hunger, homelessness, social isolation, and the uninsured.The tragic and insidious institutional racism that is embedded in our healthcare delivery system, as well as in other institutions such as our criminal justice system.A critical reframing of healthcare that Dr Berwick refers to as “What Matters to You Medicine”; which he suggests should disrupt and replace the legacy “What’s the Matter With You” paradigm.Dr. Berwick is one of the greatest healthcare humanitarians and transformational leaders of our era. He is the quintessential example of empathic ethical leadership. We need more leaders like this in and around healthcare. Dr. Berwick’s recent publications are seminal. In these articles, he courageously cuts to the stark realities of our healthcare system. He not only lays bare the truth for all to see but also outlines the crucial leadership choices of our time. And even beyond that, he lays out a pathway for positive action. Dr. Berwick writes, speaks & acts with intellectual integrity, academic rigor, and with a disarmingly insightful and honest authenticity - as well as with a powerful voice based in morals and compassion. At times, it’s unsettling, uncomfortable and inconvenient. Make no mistake about it, Dr. Berwick’s message is not an academic treatise. It is a call for ethical action.Until next time, Be safe and be well.Zeev E. Neuwirth, MD

Shame and guilt are common emotions faced by health care providers when dealing with a malpractice lawsuit. These struggles intensify when physicians hear phrases such as “don’t talk to anyone about this” from their lawyers, leading them to feel isolated, depressed, or anxious. Today’s guest discovered an unusual way of combatting some of these stressful emotions: reading. In this episode of Prosperous Doc, our host Shane Tenny is joined by Dr. Stacia Dearmin, a pediatric physician who faced an unfortunate patient outcome. In 2012, Dr. Dearmin checked on a young woman in the emergency department and, after her examination, concluded the best course of action was to send her home to finish recovering. The next day Dr. Dearmin found out the young woman had been admitted to the ICU. The young woman had suffered a cardiac arrest and stopped breathing; Dr. Dearmin knew the potential outcomes for this patient were grim. She was devastated, “I began to question what, if any responsibility I had for her death. I began to question my competence as a physician. I felt ashamed, I felt guilty, I grieved her death, I grieved my own sense of myself as a competent physician, and really struggled with these difficult feelings for much longer than I think I might have anticipated. I really didn't know how to understand the experience I was going through.” (5:32) A year later, Dr. Dearmin herself, was facing medical malpractice litigation. While the verdict was unanimously in her favor, prevailing in the lawsuit did little to ease the stress of the ordeal. “I felt critical of myself that I wasn't shaking it off, and that caused me to question even further, ‘do I belong in this profession?’ I see now that all that emotion is actually very closely tied to how seriously we take our work.” (10:39) During her struggle, Dr. Dearmin found comfort in the essay To Err is Human (https://www.thrivephysician.com/blog/2018/4/19/albert-wu-and-me-on-becoming-a-second-victim), by Dr. Albert Wu. Dr. Wu “identifies the victim as a physician or other healer who has injured themselves when something bad happens or nearly happens to a patient and that physician has made or fears that they've made a mistake.” This essay was powerful for Dr. Dearmin because it described the emotional experience she was having. She discovered she was not alone. “Oh, that's me. I'm not weak. I'm not badly suited to medicine. I'm reflective, and we don't want the reflective people to all abandon medicine." (11:19) The works of authors Brené Brown and Sidney Dekker also provided Dr. Dearmin a sense of peace. In their books she found words that allowed her to name her experience. “[I]t is powerful to have a vocabulary for these experiences because if I'm able to name my experience, just like Dr. Wu was able to name my experience, you realize, ‘oh, I'm not so alone in this. This is actually commonplace.” (17:02) Financial Wellness TipThis episode’s Financial Wellness Tip focuses on physicians’ and dentists’ desire to purchase homes after finishing school. Will Koster, CFP®, recommends three often under-discussed factors when buying a house, before making a hasty purchase: Hidden costs. The maintenance on a house can be sneaky expensive. Paying 6% of the sales price for a realtor to help you sell your house can often be a wise investment in order to save time, hassle, and to get you a higher price for your home. Lack of diversification. Oftentimes when a young person buys a house, it immediately becomes the overwhelming majority of their assets.

Quality in health care has been a hot topic for over 20 years, ever since the landmark report, To Err is Human, which declared that up to 100,000 people die each year from preventable medical errors. Since that time, the industry has increased its efforts to incorporate quality principles from Lean, Six Sigma and other models, but only one organization has raised a quality standard for health care organizations and their workforce. The National Association of Healthcare Quality (NAHQ) is leading the quality revolution with its framework of essential qualities for the health care professional. Join the conversation as we speak with Stephanie Mercado, CEO of NAHQ. Stephanie is a leader in healthcare association management, advancing healthcare professions, and workforce development. Since joining NAHQ in December 2013, NAHQ membership has increased by more than 70%. Stephanie has raised NAHQ's prominence and value in the healthcare quality space, with the introduction of industry elevating initiatives such as the award-winning HQ Essential Competencies and the National Healthcare Quality Summit. In partnership with NAHQ's Board of Directors, and an outstanding staff and volunteer team, Stephanie led the development of the profession's first-ever Comprehensive Competency Framework, and the profession's first-ever Workforce Study, offering critical insights to workforce development opportunities for healthcare quality and safety professionals. In addition to her work with NAHQ, she currently serves on the Institute for Healthcare Improvement's National Steering Committee for Patient Safety, the Association Forum Healthcare Collaborative Steering Committee, and is a board member of the Commission on Accreditation for Healthcare Management Education (CAHME), and more. In 2018, Stephanie was selected as a recipient of the Outstanding Nonprofit Leader Award from .orgCommunity.

Charlee and the Action Collaborative were wise to recognize that they did not have all the information, ideas, or answers and they needed others outside of the Collaborative to contribute. This resulted in NAM pioneering the development of Networking Organizations as unique way for leaders and organizations to contribute to the collective effort (see the show notes for the link). The NAM Consensus Report -Taking Action Against Clinician Burnout: A Systems Approach to Professional Well-Being was released in October of 2019 and is considered as significant as previous IOM landmark reports such as To Err is Human: Building a Safer Health System and Crossing the Quality Chasm: A New Health System for the 21st Century.Charlee states “I hope the report kind of anchors us to the systems change that we need to undertake and provides a platform for us to kind of set aside our differences from our different stakeholder groups and to see what the massive charge is a head of us and to know we can only do that if we work together”.Join us for this informative and enlightening interview.

Welcome to what's your motive in healthcare, the podcast that's all about understanding the core motive of the people you work with and manage in healthcare. Hi there, I'm Megan Guido, your host for what's your motive in healthcare. And today I have a very special guest, Dorcas Hirzel. She is a fellow color-code trainer and healthcare professional who's worked in hospital settings as a nurse in charge of risk management, regulatory and quality control. Dorcas, thanks so much for coming on my podcast and we have worked together for a very long time. We have, and I'm just thrilled to have you here. How  long have you worked in health care? ----more----Dorcas:  I received my RN license in 1975 and so really long, really long time. how has healthcare changed in that? Oh, it's just been amazing. It really has been amazing. I mean, the technology, just keeping up with the technology is such a challenge. I mean, I really admire the people that are doing clinical care and in all aspects, not just nursing but respiratory, respiratory care and other areas. and being part of the care team. Megan: Yeah. And now, I know you worked in regulatory for quite awhile. Dorcas: I did, yes. I, probably my most recent job started in 1989 and I retired in 2015. Cool. And what was life like working in the regulatory field in healthcare? it was very dynamic. I think it was a challenge in the sense that a healthcare organization has its own culture and sometimes finding that compatible with regulatory requirements is, is a big challenge. Megan: And in addition to the work as I'm doing regulatory, also became trained as a color code facilitator. I did. And provided that service to the hospital that you were working for for a long time. I’m teaching it at new employee orientation. And then I know you've taught it at different organizations as well and that's, you were really my mentor and that's how I got involved in it. how long did you teach color code then? Dorcas:. Actually has been 30 years. Wow. And why is it so fun for you? Why do you like Color Code? I think it's, for me it's a labor of love. It really made sense to me and gave me some real insight, not only in my work life and my work relationships, but also my personal life and for instance, my children and, a lot of things became very clear. It's amazing how it does that. It's like the light bulb goes off. It does. Yep. So maybe you can share with the audience, I've gone into some of the traits and wants and needs of the different colors. You are a strong red. Dorcas: Yes, yes I am. Megan: And how did that translate into your work life? Dorcas:. I think for one thing, I was very driven and being productive is huge and I was in a job where that was important as well. So it seemed to mesh pretty well. but I think, there are challenges, especially I think healthcare attracts quite a few blue personalities because of that human connection and that human bond. And I think that, just learning sort of the composition of our healthcare facility and understanding more about how we were as an organization, sort of what colors we reflected really helped me in terms of approaching others and working with teams. I, I did work a lot with teams. and it just, it, it clarified a lot and gave me some tools that really helped me be more proactive, not just reactive, to be able to really anticipate how people receive information differently, how they communicate differently, how they process differently. It was all very, as I said, insightful and again gave me a lot of tools. Megan:. So in your role in regulatory, I mean that's a very somewhat rigid world disciplinary defined what the rules are, etc. How do you color code kind of give you a, a balance to that? Dorcas:. I found out pretty early in my career that telling people that something is required by law doesn't always give them a lot of incentive to do things differently. But what I found was if I could somehow blend the culture of the organization with the requirements, the regulatory requirements, and show how we are meeting those based on our own culture base based on how we do things. That was a real plus. I think people appreciated that because it wasn't like they had to change because they were, they, they were doing things right. It's just that it was a matter of finding a way to communicate sort of our unique culture to the regulators and help them understand how we, in fact we're meeting these very important requirements. Megan:.So a key part of doing that I imagine was incentivizing people like, okay, the joint commission is coming and we know that we have to have all these things in place. How do you motivate a yellow, for instance, who is very motivated by fun, to get on board and be all about roles for awhile? Dorcas:  we had training events and actually I engaged a yellow coworker to be the party planner because I knew that wasn't really my strong point. so she was able to put together these, these great events that, where people were learning what they needed to learn. And, and I, I think becoming more comfortable with questions that may maybe asked of them, but at the same time we're able to have a good time. So. Cool. So that was a direct way to use what you know in terms of people's motives and what drives them to produce a successful outcome. Dorcas:. Right. Yes. And I think, for the most part we had great attendance and great response and we use that, many times because healthcare is a pretty serious business. And to give people an opportunity to have some fun and eat some food.Megan:. Yeah. So speaking of serious, safety and healthcare, huge topic, they've been talking about it probably since the early two thousands when I know the, To Err is Human  came out and that was such a kind of breakthrough, in terms of the role of safety and it was a wake up call. Yeah. A wake up call. So we've done a good job in terms of realizing the role of human beings and healthcare and the importance of reliability and, ensuring that processes are in place, et cetera. how would, I mean it seems like kind of a leap, but it really isn't. Color-code is all about communication and improving communication and relationships. How would that relate to safety in the hospital? Dorcas:.I think that if you understand where the other person is coming from and that includes what their motive is, their driving motive, then you can approach them in a way that isn't threatening, isn't condescending that you can actually communicate with them in a way that helps them understand what's happening. Like for instance, if you're doing a handoff, which is a care team turning over the care of a patient to another care team, if you know what the motives are of the folks on the team, you can approach them in a, in a very appropriate way. For instance, with a red, they think in and, bullet points. They do not think in stories. So you try to tell them a story, you'll lose them. So just get the pertinent information to them as efficiently as possible. With a blue blues tend to like stories. So they want to know everything about their patient and they'll want to know how the best way is to care for them. And those are important points to point out with the white. I think what you need to do is probably just give them the facts, their logic based like the red is blues and yellows are emotion-based. So to know that they're logic-based to provide them with what is necessary for them to do their job with a yellow, I think it's important to make sure that they feel like they can manage the project, whatever it is or manage the care. And so it's important to keep it small, keep it confined, don't give them a whole thing at, in one session. But keep them on task, keep them focused. That's very important. And, and I think that provides an opportunity for success of that team. Also I think is important that the team understands who they are, what their team members are and what motivates them as well. We have had a lot of conversations around that. Megan:. Yes, the composition of the team, by virtue of its makeup and the different colors that are on the team is going to have a certain personality or there might be someone who's a little bit more dominant. But as someone who has an understanding of those colors, you can see how to more effectively communicate with them individually, but then it might be more of a challenge as a whole. Dorcas: I think collectively, I think we need all the colors. And so the ideal team has some of all the colors. but we didn't use color code to actually formulate teams. We basically got the people in there that were closest to whatever process we were looking at and be able to have their input in terms of where improvements need to be made or, and, or changes needed to be made. Megan:.  And you're not going to always have the luxury of putting together the team that you want to have. Right, yeah. On team. Yeah. And then there are some downsides to having like everybody who thinks like you may not always be the most productive or the best way to go. Dorcas:. Absolutely. That's why I say, the most balanced team is where you have all the colors represented. And that again, you don't always have control over that, but at least you can recognize the gifts that each member brings to the team and really look at how you can optimize those gifts. Megan: Exactly. Focus on the strengths. Absolutely. So let's talk a little bit about that, that whole idea of strengths and limitations that each color has. And I know that I'm pretty familiar with my limitations as a blue, as a blue purist. And, and they usually come out when I'm under some amount of stress and I can even, because I'm pretty familiar with color code and I think I'm gaining on self-awareness, I can even feel myself going into those limitations of a blue. How about you? In terms of a red, how have you had to navigate through your strengths and limitations? Dorcas:  I, I am, I feel like I want to be very productive. I want to be, I want to contribute. I am not a processor. so that has been a challenge. I'm not very patient. That also has been a challenge. I've had to work on those things. But I think one thing that I found is that if I know someone, for instance, instances a strong white, I have to really tone down my intensity because I just scares them. And so if I can just be a little bit more mellow, make a more relaxed environment for them, then that will help them feel more relaxed as well. And I think it's a great tool to use.Megan:  Isn't it? When you can know, and we talked about a hundred percent responsibility and that you have control over this situation because you have that tool and you know how to approach that person. Absolutely. To have the most effective relationship. So it really is a gift. Dorcas: and it is, it's about diversity. It's about meeting people on their own ground, not expecting them to change for you or not ex, not expecting them to accept you, or to try and change them. Right. Because we'd like to try and change people.Dorcas:  Well blues do.  Megan: Yeah. I should speak for myself. Yeah. So as a blue, I know that some of my challenges have been not taking things so personally. being able to kind of step back and let someone else run the show. blues are pretty controlling. Dorcas: Just like the reds we like high quality. Megan:. Yes. We like the high quality and then, and being on the, what I call the moral high ground, probably want one of my biggest challenges is working with, and you brought up whites, yellows I, I have trouble with because I have a little sliver of yellow and it's so foreign to me. It's probably what I'd like to be. I'm very envious of yellows. I want to be, I don't want to be a yellow want to be, but I've had to learn to embrace yellows. And what I might think is kind of flighty behavior is, is them being them. And like you said, kind of giving them small tasks and not just laying the whole thing out and certainly not talking about any negatives. that's not going to go over well with the yellow. Dorcas:.No. And I think with the whites is similar, in the sense that you give them tasks that aren't overwhelming and then leave them alone so they can do those things because they know how they know how to do it. probably better than you, but just to let them have their autonomy and have their blues are like that too. They like to have their autonomy. but I also think it's very helpful to understand how people process information and make decisions. Because for me that was a big Aha. I thought everybody thought like me and they don't, so I was impatient with them. Such as, “Why can't you make a decision about this?” And I think it's so important to be able to say, some people need more time to process information and come up with a solution or decision while others can do it pretty easily on the spur of the moment. those are your crisis management people. but I think being able to, one have permission to say, I just need some time to think about this and I'll get back to you I think is so valuable as well as on the other side. For instance, a red going, "I know you need some time, get back to me when you can.".MeganRight? Having that awareness and that's something that I know has grown with you in terms of, what I've seen and our personal relationship and how color-code has taught you that, which is pretty cool.And I think what happens is that, again, this is, this is also about empowerment, about taking responsibility for your relationships and understanding that it's not their problem. It's something I can fix. It's something that I can, I can, I can do to change. And that growing and evolving. And developing in life is what it's all about.This has been a wonderful time just chatting with you about one of our favorite subjects, which is color code and how it's impacted our life. And just happy to have you as a regular guest. Always appreciate your insights as someone who has taught me so much, and I hope we can do it again real soon. Dorcas:. I certainly enjoy our being able to work together and teach together and learn from each other. Megan:. So thank you. Okay, thank you. Until then, this is what your mo in healthcare. 

WIHI - A Podcast from the Institute for Healthcare Improvement

September 19, 2019 Featuring: Tejal K. Gandhi, MD, MPH, CPPS, Chief Clinical and Safety Officer, Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI)​ Rear Admiral Jeffrey Brady, MD, MPH, United States Public Health Service, Director, Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality's Center for Quality Improvement and Patient Safety  Helen Haskell, President, Mothers Against Medical Error and Consumers Advancing Patient Safety Jay Bhatt, DO, MPH, MPA, FACP, Senior Vice President & Chief Medical Officer, American Hospital Association; President, Health Research and Educational Trust It’s been 20 years since the renamed National Academy of Medicine (former Institute of Medicine) first shined light on the unintended consequences of medical errors in American health care. Their report, To Err is Human: Building a Safer Health System, has served as a catalyst for safety initiatives at health systems, and progress has been made on multiple fronts — from significant reductions in health care - associated infections, to an embrace of quality improvement and patient safety solutions that now encompass the entire continuum of care. Even with this progress, obstacles to safe and reliable care persist. Systems are confronting a new payment environment, it remains difficult to sustain improvement gains, there are EHR headaches, and ongoing concerns about physician and staff burnout. These are just some of the reasons IHI convened national safety leaders and stakeholders to form the National Steering Committee for Patient Safety (NSC). Co-chaired by IHI and the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), the NSC is hard at work on a new National Action Plan it expects to release in early 2020. In light of these developments, and in support of World Patient Safety Day on 9/17, we’re focusing this edition of WIHI: No Let Up on Safety, on the work of the NSC and their bold intention to re-energize the safety movement in the US with foundational safety principles and priorities.  If you’re looking to continue the conversation, join industry leaders at this year’s IHI National Forum on Quality Improvement in Health Care and attend a special interest breakfast with members of the NSC.

Mike Eisenberg: To Err Is Human: A documentary about medical error and patient safety

Medical Error Interviews

The Sheridan family knows first hand the devastation caused by medical error. Sue and Pat’s newborn son Cal, due to misdiagnosing his jaundice, was brain damaged. Cal now lives with significant cerebral palsy. Years later, Pat was correctly diagnosed with cancer, but for 6 months a pathology report failed to be communicated to the doctor or Pat. Pat died of cancer at age 45. In this episode of Medical Error Interviews, I chat with documentary filmmaker Mike Eisenberg about his film To Err Is Human and about the Sheridan family and the state of patient safety. Mike is the son of late patient safety pioneer Dr John M Eisenberg, and as you will hear Mike say, when he started looking into medical errors and patient safety, he felt compelled to carry on his father’s legacy. Mike Eisenberg Show Notes Following his Father's footsteps   0:07:00 Mike was born in Philadelphia - childhood mostly in Maryland - but as a child was not interested in health care, even though his father was a patient safety advocate - as documentary filmmaker he wanted to tell stories otherwise not seen - fiction is harder and more expensive to make into film - the documentary path led down the path to make "To Err is Human" 0:09:30 About 3.5 years ago it started with a short film on AHRQ: Agency for Health Research and Quality, the organization Mike's father started and was the Director until he passed away in 2002 - there was annual debates over AHRQ's budget and attempts to slash it - but AHRQ has far less money they should given their role 0:10:30 Started the documentary by driving to DC, pay out of pocket, and interview his father's old colleagues about AHRQ's role that the public knows nothing about - themes of medical error, patient safety and improving care emerged - it was evident to Mike that conversation was no longer being had - if felt to Mike it was his responsibility to carry on his father's work 0:11:30 We, including his production partners Matt Downe and Kailey Brackett try to stay positive in tone and show what happens when people take this seriously - focus on the process to make things better 0:12:45 Report in late '90s titled To Err is Human, Building a Safer System - a report that used research that determined how bad medical error was - the data was shocking - it said 44,000 to 98,000 died each year from medical error - that was brand new concept, made new headlines, President Clinton said it would be tackled 0:14:00 At the time, those numbers were questioned - but today one study, Marty Macquarrie out of John Hopkins that says 251,000 die each year - and John James's study that says between 240,000 and 440,000 die each year from medical error - hard to quantify because CDC (Centre for Disease Control) doesn't have a box to tick for 'death by medical error' - even conservative estimates have medical error as 3rd leading cause of death 0:16:00 We compare how many plane crashes, 7 or 8, would happen each day to equal medical error deaths each day - a staggering number, almost the same as the opioid epidemic - the important question is not accuracy of numbers, but how to get accurate numbers     The Sheridan family and medical errors   0:18:00 There is not a consensus around medical error death numbers - sometimes people die at home from hospital errors - part of the reason we've not seen more solutions is that the public, especially Americans, have been trained to treat the medical system: that physicians don't make mistakes, they are right all the time 0:19:45 The real reason we've not seen change in patient safety is because physicians have not embraced the patient in this process - some health care systems have, they visited over 250 health care systems - many of them doing interesting things to help curb error, but only a few have really engaged the patient 0:21:00 If a Hospital engages patients in a patient safety process, then the Hospital is admitting it makes mistakes, and that admission is considered guilt - but Med Star Health, especially out of Georgetown, show promise: they had a public facing explanation of an error that was prevented - great message that most of these errors are preventable 0:22:30 It is easy to say to public we are humans too and make mistakes, and most are not egregious or intentional - most hospital surgeries have a practice called 'stop the line' and reasses if things are organized correctly, a bean counter will say it is not efficient and costs money, but it costs less then lawsuits 0:24:15 Regarding body cameras worn by physicians for patient safety, Mike considered including that aspect but thought it was too touchy subject - solutions for other societal problems can be embraced by health care - aviation is the most obvious, they interviewed Sully Sullenburger of the water landing in the Hudson River - vital health care takes a look outside its own walls 0:25:45 In Toronto we found a surgical team using video and other data to show when errors are most likely to occur and to use that data for better safety - 'hand offs' to other staff is obvious time things can go wrong 0:27:45 Improving patient safety is more than preventing law suits - the real 'bottom line' is about lives not profit - we expect health care to do what it is supposed to do and not cause new problems - what's important is communication with the patient 0:29:15 One of the stories in our film is about Sue Sheridan - her family experienced 2 medical errors - the 1st was her son Cal who has cerebral palsy and got that at 5 days old because of a small over sight by not performing an available and cheap test when he was born with jaundice - the other case is about the father Pat who was diagnosed with cancer - they thought it was benign but sent sample for pathology examination     Aviation Culture vs Medical Culture   0:30:15 The results showed it was malignant, dangerous and needed to be removed - but those results didn't get through for 6 months because it was an over looked fax - so Pat didn't get treatment and died of cancer - but what doesn't go on the death certificate is that he lost 6 months of treatment 0:31:30 Organizations like the Society for Diagnostic Error in Medicine (SDIM) is leading the charge on diagnostic errors 0:33:00 The biggest difference between airline industry culture and medical industry culture is the lack of transparency of the latter - recently an airplane window cracked and fell off and sucked a woman out the window, that was the 1st aviation accident that lead to a death in years - studies have found that most plane tragedies are not accidents 0:34:00 Recently Boeing had 2 large plane crashes and they've been open about determining what went wrong and how to fix it - the same thing should happen in health care 0:35:00 In aviation pilots have to re-take their test every 5 years to prove their competence - don't do that with driving cars, just give licenses when people are 17 and assume they'll good for the rest of their life - same thing with health care - we need to be honest about where health care is weak and where it can be improved 0:36:30 In aviation, airlines work together globally to improve safety for all airlines - but this is not the practice in most hospitals - but there are exceptions that share their research and date like Inter Mountain Heath Care in Utah, and some in Boston that have embraced imperfection - when an error happens they gather the team to learn how to prevent it in the future, as opposed to how avoid bad PR (public relations), or blaming someone and firing them - that's not how you fix the problem 0:38:15 In the documentary, Sue's family engaged in litigation, they 'won' in one instance of medical error, but not in the other - Mike chose not to focus on the litigation angle in the documentary - for the medical error to Sue's son, they did not get a resolution - Sue has turned her entire life into advocacy - one of her achievements is that the test her son should have received - bilirubin - is now a requirement 0:39:45 For Sue's husband's medical error - been about 18 years since her husband died, and the hospital recently had a screening of the documentary and a panel discussion afterward - the first time the hospital had openly discussed the case with its own staff - the pathologist had told Sue that it was not his responsibility to make sure the info he sent got through to the receiver     Physicians have highest suicide rate   0:41:45 The US will have a shortage of physicians by 2024 often due to burnout - because they are also enterpreneurs - they have one of the most challenging jobs in the world 0:43:00 Physicians have highest suicide rate of all professions - rampant in physician culture, especially clinicians - Mike's friends that are doctors are over worked and its scares him - they needed to be treated right - but its hard to expect humans to be perfect all the time when they are not treated that way - when things go wrong, the hospital worries more about its image then the people, its a systems vs people problem - it promotes volume and that is not conducive to reliability 0:45:30 Mike calls upon patients to be a voice, its not just a hospital problem - don't have to go to school for many years, just need to listen and look - can avoid a lot of these mistakes if they listened to patients, and patients felt empowered to engage 0:47:00 Re physician suicide, it is an individual choice - wouldn't be surprised if financial problems are a factor - many start with 6 figure deaths, have families, and witness trauma every day, its a tough job - Mike has screened his film a lot in hospitals and he hears staff worried about losing job if point out errors - there is heirarchy in health care that is not healthy - old gaurd is not embracing new reality 0:50:00 One hospital claimed they had solved physician burnout by mandating that there was at least 6 hours between shifts - but that is still not reasonable - lessen to learn is suicide is individual, but common is that they feel their profession is not respected, appreciated - the message is that its been working for 70 years, why change now - but now is the time to change to take patient safety seriously 0:52:00 Fixing patient safety is about how care is delivered, and how we treat health care workers 0:53:00 In aviation, they do not permit pilots to fly if they haven't had a specific number of hourss of sleep, or if they've had even one drink of alcohol - some hospitals have similar standards, but why is that not a federal mandate? The Agency for Healthcare and Research Quality (AHRQ) is important to learn where to get better - but not much done with that info because they are underfunded but could cause huge change 0:55:00 This is not new issue, its been around for 20 years - need to have discussions about access to care, about diversity and care - but they are only improved if thought from a patient safety perspective     Media and its messages   0:56:15 Aviation has done it well because they've collaborated globally, but in the US hospital are autonomous and its hard to develop a plan that all will follow - while aviation has an organization that investigates crashes, that doesn't exist in health care - why is that not happening in health care? Because one person dies at a time. 0:58:00 In aviation, they 2 or 3 hundred at a time and those stories are on all the front pages - but when someone dies from communication breakdown there isn't the same collective impact or response - it boggles the mind 0:59:00 Since his documentary released, seen a documentary on HBO called Bleed Out, made by a comedian who tells about his family's experience with medical error over the years - also Bleeding Edge on Netflix about tthe FDA's lackadaisical approval of medical devices - 3 documentaries coming out in 1 year is progress - but how to make progress on the national stage? Mike working collaboratively on a project to put patient safety on the map 1:01:30 Media has a responsibility in patient safety too - Mike says every day there are 4 or 5 stories on gun violence in Chicago, where he lives - and that problem persists despite local government action to fix it - in health care errors will always occur, but can learn from errors to prevent future harm - but to fix the problem requires engaging the public 1:03:15 Media is hugely responsible for what people care about - the media has all the power about what people care about - essentially telling the political atmosphere what it should care about - Americans choose what they want to protest about - we need a better way to show the scope and scale of medical error without blaming doctors and nurses - there is no villain in patient safety - malpractice is different from patient safety 1:05:00 We need a villain, somebody to blame - last year at Vanderbilt, a nurse was thrown under the bus for making an error that resulted in death, but it was actually a system failure that allowed her humanness to make an error, it was not her fault - instead of the hospital changing the system, they throw an employee under the bus, and she went to jail - then we wonder why people don't report errors when they see them 1:06:45 A culture shift in health care is needed, and it must come from the top - by working together we can send a message to 'the top' to make a change 1:08:00 Most patients want to be treated with honesty and transparency and will work together if something goes wrong - but that's not usually how it happens, it is usually a cover up, or denial, or this is how health care works and sucks to be you - but a culture of lawsuits has emerged as the way to get info out of hospitals - its not about money for most of these people       Less money, more transparency   1:09:15 In Sue's case, she sued for less money in exchange for greater transparency - we should get away from lawsuit culture and move toward working together 1:10:20 Mike has been fortunate to travel around the country to talk to people who knew his father {Founder of AHRQ} and sharing the film - a lot of people share the sentiment and passion he had still inspires them today - it is really cool as his son to hear that 17 years after passed away that he still has an impact on the health care system 1:11:00 Mike feels that a lot of the work that his father did - you can see clips of him on Youtube addressing Congress - is gone - don't why - was it because of his leadership, or because it was the right time? Mike thinks we need another leader who has the ability to bring people together - the way culture is set up, we need a celebrity - Dennis Quaid, famous actor, almost had his 2 sons die due to medical error and he made a short documentary and started a foundation 1:12:30 There are other examples, Serena Williams who nearly died due to preventable harm and racism - problem is 'medical error' is a very scary term and it is applied to all doctors, nurses, surgeons and it shouldn't be that way - there is resistance by the health care industry to embrace the terms 'patient safety' etc and not as an offensive term 1:14:00 Mike is proud of father's legacy, but worries that it has been forgotten by the people who spearheaded it in the first place - we need a superhero who can jump up and say these are issues we should be talking about 1:15:00 Mike is now balancing promoting To Err is Human and speaking at medical conferences and symposiums and screened the film hundreds of times - we need to go one person at a time, change one mind at a time 1:17:00 There will be a screening of the film in Ottawa on World Patient Safety Day {Sept 17th} and for the first time there will a free online screening of the movie - to find link for free online screening check out his website ToErrIsHumanFilm.com and through twitter @ToErrIsHumanDoc 1:18:20 Website also lists other screenings in local areas - if you're interested in hosting a screening for your community, contact Mike - they tried to make the film so it is a conversation starter - but this issue is not solved, so we need to remind people where we are at, so we can continue in the right direction   Connect with Mike   Twitter: To Err is Human @ToErrIsHumanDoc   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ToErrIsHumanDoc   Documentary Website: https://www.toerrishumanfilm.com     ______________________________________________   Podcast Host and Counsellor Scott Simpson   Do you need an experienced counsellor for your medical error trauma?   Or for living with a chronic illness?   You can book an online video counseling appointment with me at RemediesCounseling.com

Both of us have spent a good portion of our careers developing and helping organizations implement tools, processes and infrastructures that support interprofessional education and collaborative practice. As you might guess this is a topic that is near and dear to our hearts. During the episode we talk about how the Institute of Medicine (IOM) reports, To Err is Human: Building a Safer Health System (1999); Crossing the Quality Chasm: A New Health System for the 21st Century (2001) and Health Professions Education: A Bridge to Quality (2003), served to heighten the awareness of concerns about safe, quality, cost-effective care within the United States healthcare system. These reports also reinforced the need for interprofessional education (IPE) and interprofessional collaborative practice (ICP). We talk about what is being learned and the current realities educators and leaders are facing. Recent reports indicate the traditional cultures and practices in healthcare settings do not support ICP (Brandt, KItto, & Cervero, in press) and those who have experienced IPE go into practice settings that do not support what they have learned. IPE and ICP represent an interdependent pair. Both are necessary to prepare the future and the current workforce to work collaboratively.Achieving the national goals of safe, quality, efficient, effective care will require a healthcare workforce prepared and supported to work collaboratively. Managing the IPE and ICP polarity is key in achieving sustainable outcomes. Leveraging strong partnering relationships between practice and education leaders may be one way to manage the IPE/ICP polarity and support current and future workforce preparation.

Joining me today for Episode #329 of the podcast is Mike Eisenberg, the director, editor, and producer of the film “To Err is Human,” a documentary about the incredibly important issue of patient safety. The film shares a title with the groundbreaking 1999 report from the Institute of Medicine.The film is available on as a digital download (through iTunes and other platforms) and a Blu-ray or DVD (through Amazon) and there also screenings taking place around the country (and you can arrange one at your organization).In our conversation, Mike and I talk about the scale and breadth of patient safety problems, some of the systemic causes, and some of the solutions that are being tried and used in healthcare. The term “Lean” is not a part of the film, but Mike said he's become aware of the alignment between Lean and systemic patient safety improvement, but there are limitations to what could be put into a 77-minute film. But, there are common themes including not blaming “bad apples” and improving the way care is delivered in a systematic way.I had the opportunity to watch the film before the interview — it's very powerful and well produced. I hope you'll check out the film, whether you are a patient or a healthcare professional (or leader). It's important that we help the public understand that patient safety can't be taken for granted… and it's important that hospitals step up their efforts on this front.

​​​​​​​​​​​​Date: June 1, 2017 Featuring:  Bob Wachter, MD, Chair, Department of Medicine at the University of California, San Francisco Tejal Gandhi, MD, Chief Clinical and Safety Officer, Institute for Healthcare Improvement Technology is everywhere in health care — and for many reasons, that's a good thing. It's fast, it's efficient, and it can reduce errors. And yet, technology is not a cure-all. It can make people complacent, introduce new errors, and get in the way of meaningful face-to-face interactions.   World-renowned patient safety experts Bob Wachter and Tejal Gandhi shared what they're learning about technology's impact (both positive and negative) on our industry. Wachter, the author of The Digital Doctor, discussed the computer's role in the exam room, the potential of electronic health records, the exciting world of wearables, and the patient and provider frustrations technology is causing. Gandhi, former president of the National Patient Safety Foundation and part of the expert panel that created Free from Harm: Accelerating Patient Safety Improvement Fifteen Years after To Err is Human, honed in on technology's growing influence on patient safety.    Technology is here to stay and we need to learn how to get the most value from the digital world that health care increasingly relies upon. That was the  focus of our conversation on the June 1 WIHI, The Digital Transformation: How Technology Is Helping (and Hurting) Health Care.
