“One of the essential qualities of the clinician is interest in humanity, for the secret of the care of the patient is in caring for the patient.’ Nearly 100 years after Dr. Francis W. Peabody said these words to medical students, the need to reinforce the humanity in healthcare has perhaps never been more apparent.” “The Glasgow Consensus Statement offers a framework for effective communication that both acknowledges critical challenges in contemporary health services and reinforces the humanity of healthcare, with the aim of supporting those involved in care, service design and/or health professional training.” Gregory Makoul, Lorraine Noble, Pål Gulbrandsen, Sandra van Dulmen, Reinforcing the humanity in healthcare: The Glasgow Consensus Statement on effective communication in clinical encounters, Patient Education and Counseling, Volume 122, 2024,108158, ISSN 0738-3991, https://lnkd.in/g2ycmdKT #patienteducation #healtheducation #patientcenteredcare #patientadvocacy #healthcarecommunication #healthcommunication

As a formal partner of NHS Scotland, we back the message of the Chief Medical Officer in a new report, that healthcare innovation is ‘central to the pursuit of wellbeing, equity, and Scotland’s wider socioeconomic success’. Professor Sir Gregor Smith’s new Annual Report 2023-24 – entitled 'Realistic Medicine: Taking Care' – champions the powerful contribution which innovation makes to a modern, equitable, sustainable, healthcare system. He states in the report: “Innovation is everyone’s business – and we know that the greatest innovations spring from a place of passion and expertise.” Sir Gregor believes that “looking towards this fairer, climate-resilient and sustainable system means embracing innovation,” and that “rapid adoption of proven innovations is most welcome and much needed”. He adds: “We can all be innovators and improvers by taking the best of science, technology and new techniques and transforming them into care and outcomes that matter. Improving and innovating must be central to the way we care.” The report references data from InnoScot Health’s recent survey of the NHS workforce – highlighting that nearly two thirds (64%) of health and social care staff consider themselves innovators – and, importantly, feel they have ideas to safeguard and improve our NHS.

🎉 Exciting News! 🎉 I'm thrilled to announce that my thesis has been published in the Public Health journal! 📚✨ The study, titled "Features and Frequency of Use of Electronic Health Records in Primary Care Across 20 Countries: A Cross-Sectional Study," We aimed to examine the factors associated with everyday Electronic Health Records (EHRs) use by Primary Care Physicians (PCPs), characterise the EHRs features available to PCPs, and to identify the impact of practice settings on feature availability. I found the variation in EHR policies across different countries both fascinating and challenging. Policymakers could significantly benefit from focusing on improving data interoperability. Addressing this priority would pave the way for introducing essential EHR features globally. A big thank you to everyone who supported me throughout this journey, especially my supervisor Ana Luísa Neves for her encouragement and guidance.

"If we can create digital systems that do that administrative legwork for us, we can get back to actual front-facing clinical medicine and provide patient-centred care." How can technology augment the clinical process so that doctors are doing less low-value tasks and can use that time to focus on medicine and the patients in front of them?

When Vizient, Inc Chief Medical Officer David Levine studies high-performing healthcare institutions, he finds a deceptively simple question often serves as the guidepost to success: Who comprises our community? "That question should always be your starting point," said Levine, who along with Julie Cerese, Vizient senior vice president, performance management and national networks, has studied healthcare top performance for the past two decades. "It's how you decide if you should focus more on outpatient versus inpatient or virtual care versus brick and mortar. It really is the key to better patient access and outcomes." Here, Levine outlines some strategies for how healthcare organizations should think about high performance moving forward — and how that mindset will benefit the communities they serve. https://lnkd.in/g9Gw2aAp

This Harvard Public Health article provides a useful summary of Susannah Fox’s new book, "Rebel Health: A Field Guide to the Patient-Led Revolution in Medical Care". Ms. Fox explores the transformative power of patient-led innovation in healthcare through examples that illustrate how patients, survivors, and caregivers have pioneered solutions to health challenges by leveraging technology and forming supportive communities. The book introduces four archetypes driving this revolution: Seekers, Networkers, Solvers, and Champions. Each chapter provides practical advice on navigating online communities, pitching ideas, and advocating for new treatments. Fox emphasizes the importance of integrating patient insights into healthcare systems to foster innovation and improve outcomes.
