After 93 days indoors, a guardianship patient finally soaked up some sun, all thanks to Christie R. Webb, BSN, RN, CWOCN. Christie, our spirited Clinical Coordinator of Wound/Ostomy Care at University of Maryland Upper Chesapeake Health, wasn't assigned to this patient that day. Yet, she couldn’t resist adding a bit of brightness to their day. When the patient requested "more sun," it wasn’t just the weather that warmed—it was our hearts, too. Cheers to Christie for exemplifying patient-centered care. Here’s to more sun and more care like Christie's!

One of the biggest misconceptions about health care today is that artificial intelligence (AI) will change it. According to Krishnaj Gourab, MD, Chief Medical Officer and Vice President of the University of Maryland Rehabilitation and Orthopaedic Institute, "the biggest misconception is that AI will change health care. Without thoughtful implementation, we will have many unrealized potential, unsolved problems, and a large bill."
