The safety measures for interventional team members have not kept up with the rise in scatter radiation in cath labs. The growing number of procedures has led to a rise in associated health problems such as cancer, cataracts, cognitive impairment, and more. This has caused many medical students, including female doctors, to reconsider pursuing a career in #cardiology. “As medical professionals, we are sworn to protect the health of all people, even each other…it always helps when the path to a sustainable solution is cost-effective, too. In this case, the costs for a comprehensive medical radiation safety overhaul are minimal compared to treating staff radiation injuries and losing the experience, expertise, and people...our world has come to depend upon.” - Prof. AVISHAG LAISH-FARKASH, Head of Electrophysiology, Cardiology Department at Samson Assuta Ashdod Public Hospital Read more from #Radiaction in Med Journal 360™ >> https://lnkd.in/g96CN4G5 #BlockRadiationAtTheSource #NowYouAreProtected #medicaldevices #medtech #physicians #nurses #radiographer #technologists #healthcare #hospitals #cathlab #radiationsafety

At the end of my medical career, I have had to acknowledge that I was, and I am, the active agent in my own life. I have had to accept responsibility for my choices. The worst part of blaming the patients, or the system, for my alienation, loneliness, fatigue, boredom, and fear is that my ability to change patients or systems has been, and remains, so limited. Conversely, my ability to change myself has been far greater. Over the course of my life and medical career, I have developed two ideas that have aided in making choices consistent with the values that I have tried to embrace: -Heroes, who have modeled behavior that I wanted to emulate, and -Anti-heroes, who modeled behavior that I wanted to avoid. I did not want to become Samuel Shem's Fat Man, either figuratively or literally. The House of God is a cautionary tale for anyone contemplating a career that involves caring for sick and dying fellow humans. At the end of my career, I see Samuel Shem and most of his fellow house staff in the House of God as among my anti-heroes. They modeled much of what I did not want to become. Armed with that insight, and the determination to change, they cannot hurt me anymore. #heroes #antiheroes #purpose #meaning #medicaleducation #medicaltraining #medicalpractice https://lnkd.in/gWXq8ncV

#hiring Internal Medicine Nocturnist- Dallas, TX, Dallas, United States, fulltime #opentowork #jobs #jobseekers #careers #Dallasjobs #Texasjobs #HealthcareMedical Apply: https://lnkd.in/g5xymnhi To our prospective teammates,I am the medical director for Sound's hospital medicine practice at Texas Health Presbyterian Dallas in Dallas, Texas. I have been a part of Texas Health Presbyterian Dallas for ten years and with Sound for seven. I want to welcome interest from physicians coming out of training or looking to make a career change. I want to share more about who we are and what we do - specifically about our people, practice, and purpose - as you consider your options. People We have a diverse group of physicians with various talents and skill sets. Our group tends to skew towards mid-career physicians, although we have a few newer grads. We work collaboratively with a healthy structure of work/home life balance and try very hard to separate rounding duties from admitting. Most doctors congregate in our shared workspace around lunchtime to take care of notes, bounce questions off each other, and discuss things outside of work. We ve structured our MDRs so that, Monday through Friday, we get a chance to interact with each other and other hospitalists during presentations, and it is a very collegial atmosphere.I m a firm believer in an open-door policy. I like interacting with my team members and helping fix issues in the current system. I value team members who want to contribute to the growth and health of the team. I admire doctors who stand up for one another and understand the group s needs. Doctors who are willing to listen and ask if they can do better. I strongly believe in giving physicians autonomy to do what they need to care for patients, but I won t hesitate to point out when things can be improved.We work hard as a group to achieve our shared goals, but we like to interact and discuss all the joys and headaches of life as a hospitalist. Everyone has a voice and freedom to speak up at our monthly team meetings or directly with me anytime. No one is expected to clock in, but there is a sense of responsibility in doing what is expected.We first started as a physician-owned group of hospitalists. We became part of a joint venture with Sound, and in 2019, Sound bought our group outright. What was attractive about Sound was the infrastructure and wealth of expertise they brought to hospital medicine and how it can be practiced and measured. I initially started as an associate medical director. When the medical directorship opened, I knew I was invested in seeing the group and the hospital thrive, so I moved into the role. Practice We are a large, diverse hospitalist group providing medical care to a growing population here in Dallas.What makes our group unique is the work-life balance we worked hard to cultivate. We divided the admitter and rounding roles as muc
