An inspiring but frustrating book Buried or Planted to read by Stephanie S. Abbott, MBA, CLSSBB, FACHE that captures her cancer survival journey with a great deal of POOR experiences in care, treatments, communication and compassion. Our healthcare CAN BE better than this and MUST BE. I challenge our various Boards of Medicine, Nursing, and essentially all colleges and certifying bodies relevant to healthcare to consider this book as part of their required reading. Stephanie’s experience and her life deserves improvement in our medical and compassionate treatment of each other. Do One Thing to make it better. Stephanie makes it easy for you at the end of each chapter. Compassion not only improves clinical QUALITY, motivates better patient self-care and drives REVENUE in healthcare organizations that excel in compassionate care.  What will YOU do?  https://lnkd.in/eaSUjV2p

This mission drives employees to develop innovative solutions that meet the unique needs of clinicians and patients, enhancing the healthcare experience. Baxter announces branding for its spin-off kidney care business with the plum-coloured "V" logo, divided into three parts, representing Vantive's focus on innovative therapies, digital solutions, and advanced services, combining the stability of Baxter’s blue with the boldness of red.   Building on Baxter's nearly 70-year legacy in kidney care, Vantive will serve over one million patients annually in more than 70 countries. Chris Toth, transitioning from executive vice president at Baxter to Vantive's CEO, will lead the new company. Vantive plans to launch through a sale or spinoff in the second half of 2024, following Baxter's 2023 announcement. Until then, the kidney care business will continue under Baxter's name.   https://lnkd.in/gaaXUhrS. #MedTechNews #MedicalDevices #HealthcareInnovation #MedTechIndustry #HealthTech #HealthcareTechnology #MedDeviceNews #HealthcareNews #MedTechTrends

Rochester Post(Rochester, MN) dated January 27, 1864, carried an advertisement for a medical practice called Mayo Clinic – located over the Union Drug Store on 3rd Street, with a catchy caption “all calls answered by day or night.” It was well over a century and half before ‘patient centered care’ entered the healthcare lexicon. The legacy of Dr. William Worrall Mayo who established Mayo clinic as a solo practice was carried on by his children: Dr. William J. Mayo and Dr. Charles H. Mayo – the Mayo brothers, who built the foundations of the modern day Mayo Clinic. Mayo Clinic has consistently been rated as the #1 hospital or near the top for over 35 years. It’s a unique distinction, worthy of the spirit of dedication to patient care, as embodied by the Mayo brothers. Dr. Joe Brudny’s experience of the holocaust and the subsequent experience of treating WWII veterans was the crucible in which the modality of EMG biofeedback began to take shape. This was further shaped into a useful modality by Dr. Gordon Silverman – then Professor at Rockefeller University and the inventor of the technology behind EZ-Pass. JOGO is named after Joe and Gordon – the pioneers whose legacy we are privileged to carry on at JOGO Health. Pursuit of science in service of mankind is the holy grail of medicine. Essential tremors affects over 7 million Americans and a far greater number outside the United States. The clinical study in partnership with Mayo holds the potential for creating evidenced treatments and for moving the needle in patient care. Nothing could be more befitting to the legacies of our respective organizations. https://lnkd.in/gAhNgaRt
