The 17th module of the LMHS - Leadership & Management of Health Services ( School of Medicine) was held 💪 💪 💪 Selected chapters of public health, policy and management of health systems were covered, under the guidance of professor Ranko Stevanović, MD. Ph.D. This penultimate study module was completed with a detailed analysis of the participants' mutual evaluation, comparing the sociological expectations and assessments at the beginning of the study with the feedback now, after one year. #lmhs #menadžment #zdravstvo #MEFZg #medicinskifakultet

We need to keep learning and improving in #healthcare. We need to share (and publish) creative care models that work well, and work #together across teams, historic silos, and locations to help our patients, communities, and each other. 📌 This is a fantastic overview of a virtual care connection model with specialists and local teams working together to care for patients. ➡️ “The clinical consultation took place in the local clinic facility, with the support of the on-site team.” ➡️ “Laboratory testing and imaging studies were coordinated through community settings, and tertiary site–based surgical, health psychology, and nutritional teams also followed up with this patient via virtual care clinic visits.” ➡️ “By providing these clinical services closer to the patient’s home through a clinical facility, numerous objectives were achieved: (1) patients received thorough clinical assessment and care plans; (2) patients were less likely to use the hospital or ED; (3) patients were more likely to remain in the workforce; and (4) community health care was off-loaded, reducing burnout and improving workforce retention.” ➡️ “This approach combines virtual care with a cooperative care delivery model, where the aim is not to shift patient care from one provider to another, but to expand access for patients and to create both new and clinically appropriate care for each care participant, with the aim that improved access will lead to enhanced care outcomes and more efficient care utilization.” #StrongerTogether #CrossTeamCollaboration #PatientCenteredCare

Join me as I moderate a discussion with Drs. Angela Hagaman East Tennessee State University, Craig Henderson, Sam Houston State University, Bettina Hoeppner Massachusetts General Hospital / Harvard Medical School, and Sierra Castedo de Martell, Chestnut Health Systems regarding important questions about the PRSS/RCC workforce and the role they play within their recovery ecosystems. Such questions include: (1) the specific activities PRSS engage in and in which settings they conduct them, (2) how benefit from services is best operationalized and measured, and (3) the economic valuation of these services.

If your mission-critical storage lacks integrated ransomware protection, what are you doing? And if it does have this protection but you’re not utilizing it or actively planning to implement it, brace yourself for a harsh reality. Imagine being a patient on the worst day of your life, only to find out the ambulance is taking you to a hospital with no access to your medical records, no diagnostics and staff relying solely on pen and paper. Ascension recently achieved a $1.8 billion turnaround in 12 months following a $3 billion loss in 2023, showing signs of recovery. However, it's challenging to bounce back from an estimated $1.6 billion unexpected loss due to a single ransomware event in one quarter (Forbes, 5/8/24). #ransomware #cybersecurity #breach #acquisition #healthcare #ascension #uab #EPIC #EMR #EHR

Growth. Connection. Modernization. Collaboration. These were just a few keywords highlighted during CDC’s Public Health Infrastructure Grant (PHIG) Annual Reverse Site Visit in sunny San Diego this week. Recipients, PHIG National Partners (Association of State and Territorial Health Officials, Public Health Accreditation Board, and National Network of Public Health Institutes), and CDC attended educational sessions and networked with colleagues around the country to continue to improve public health infrastructure.   PHIG is a groundbreaking CDC investment to ensure health departments have the people, resources, and systems they need to promote and protect health in their communities.

In public health, diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice (DEIJ) are key principles in achieving equitable health outcomes. PHF is actively seeking insights from experts in the field to understand what DEIJ looks like in their health departments and how it is practiced and sustained in a real, practical, and impactful way. In a new PHF Pulse Blog, PHF sat down (virtually!) with Jade Ramsdell, MBA, LSSGB, CDP®, to learn more about her experiences at the Kansas Department of Health and Environment.
