Less than 1 month left to register! Do you want to empower your hospice to deliver exceptional care through the power of research? The final date to register for our #EstablishingResearchInYourHospice Conference is Friday 4 October. We know that other hospices across the country are just as passionate as we are about making a real difference in palliative care through research, but face challenges to translate research into impactful action. An estimated 63-82% of people will need palliative care but only 25% of hospices are currently research active. Here's why your hospice can't afford to miss this: 🔍Measure Your Impact: Research allows you to quantify the positive difference you make, attracting donors, grants, and strengthening your case for continued support. ⭐Attract Top Talent: A research-driven environment fosters a culture of innovation and excellence, making your hospice a magnet for the best staff. 🔝Sustainable Success: By participating in research, your hospice stays at the forefront of evidence-based care, ensuring long-term sustainability and exceptional patient care. Research matters. Will your hospice take the next step? Join us on 18 October 2024 in Sheffield. Register today at www.research-matters.org and take the next step towards a research-driven future.

🌱 Navigating Advance Care Planning with the SPIRIT Framework I recently posted on GeriScope about the significance of the SPIRIT framework in advance care planning for individuals awaiting organ transplants. It's a powerful reminder of how critical it is to have open, value-aligned discussions about healthcare preferences early on.   I wanted to share how @Mi-KyungSong is utilizing the SPIRIT framework to promote advance care planning, especially for those waiting for an organ transplant.   The Effectiveness of Advance Care Planning Intervention in Adults Receiving Dialysis and Their Families study is a game-changer, providing guidance for meaningful conversations that can ease the journey for patients and their families. Whether you're on the waitlist, know someone who is, or are simply interested in patient-centered healthcare, this article is a good start.   #AdvanceCarePlanning #SPIRITFramework #OrganTransplant #PatientCare #Healthcare  

#HiChallenge: Hospital in my Hand 🏥 The Royal Hospital for Children has more than 180,000 clinical interactions each year, and more than 70,000 patients attending our site across 27 specialties and departments. Our busy clinical teams need faster access to patient information to allow more rapid decision-making for the best possible care. This challenge is to develop a technology solution that will give our clinical teams quick, easy access to existing clinical information systems, guidelines, and training tools. Furthermore, access to patient communication aids in their hand and at their bedside. It sounds easy, but there are hardware and software components to the challenge and we need partners who really understand the important of robust systems, platforms, and easy integration. Quicker diagnosis and access to information gives our clinical team more time to talk and interact with the patients and more time for treatment and care 🩷🥼 We’ve defined the challenge, can you help us to deliver the solutions?

There is no doubt Social Prescribing is a great community initiative, but here are some stats that really put it into perspective. Social prescribing not only supports participants, but also our GPs and surgeries, community groups and organisations; connecting us all towards a common goal: happier, healthier communities. As our highlight week draws to a close, we would like to remind you how easy it is to get involved, if you need 1-1 support yourself, or if you want to get involved as an organisation just visit our website. There are so many fantastic initiatives in Didcot, so the more opportunities we have to work together, the better!

In 21 states, at least 50% of all methadone clinics are owned either by private equity firms or by Acadia Healthcare, a publicly traded company founded by private equity firm Waud Capital Partners. 100% of all clinics in Louisiana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, and Montana are owned either by Acadia or by private equity firms. The shift toward private-equity-backed treatment in the U.S. has raised questions about what methadone clinics’ real interests are in the public policy debate. While there's no evidence that for-profit clinics offer lower-quality care, experts say private equity firms are investing with the expectation that methadone clinics will increase in value. Where does that leave people in recovery? Part 3 of The War on Recovery examines the methadone clinic monopoly. Read: https://trib.al/Wr0Zwz8
