Welcome to Healthy State. Imagine a Louisiana where everyone has the opportunity to lead a healthier, more prosperous life. That's the vision of Healthy State. By engaging with healthcare, community, education and policy organizations from across the state, we are working together to tackle the leading causes of poor health - together. Ochsner Health provided the initial funding, resources, and expertise to kickstart this unified effort, but Healthy State is about collective action through our Healthy State Alliance. Our mission? To inspire healthier lives and stronger communities through partnership. Our vision? To create a more equitable and healthier Louisiana by bringing resources to underserved areas, raising awareness of health and social impact, leveraging data, technology, and innovation, and investing in economic growth and workforce development. A prosperous Louisiana requires more than just economic mobility; it requires good education, good jobs, health awareness, and sustainable living. Regardless of our backgrounds, we are united by a common goal: to build a healthier Louisiana where families, neighbors, and friends can thrive. Join us in shaping a healthier future for our state. Together, we can make it happen. Read more about us and get involved! https://lnkd.in/gZBRqHDi

Deeply honored to be partnered with this amazing group from University of St Andrews, The University of Edinburgh, NHS Fife, NHS Highland and so many others on highly significant work managing acute unscheduled and end-of-life care. 🔍 The project emerged amid unprecedented pressure on the country’s unscheduled care services, driven by workforce shortages, demographic changes, and widespread multimorbidity (when a person has two or more long-term health conditions). In 2022, Accident & Emergency waiting times hit record levels, and over a quarter-million calls to NHS24 went unanswered. Alongside these services, unscheduled care also includes General Practice Out-of-Hours (GPOOH) and the Scottish Ambulance Service (SAS). 🩺 Research shows that one group frequently using these services is individuals in their last year of life. Although essential, unscheduled care often isn’t the most appropriate option for them, relying on a reactive approach rather than nuanced, anticipatory, and coordinated planning. This can lead to fragmented, expensive, and less effective care, causing additional distress to patients and their families. 💡 Our program will leverage machine learning and artificial intelligence to analyze existing healthcare data and predict future patterns of unscheduled care use by patients in their last year of life. This will help identify those who may need social care reviews, prescribing interventions, or other anticipatory care measures, ultimately reducing their reliance on unscheduled care. 🌟 Excited to be part of this transformative initiative! #HealthcareInnovation #AIinHealthcare #PatientCare #EndOfLifeCare #UnscheduledCare Yale School of Medicine Yale Emergency Medicine Yale Biomedical Informatics & Data Science Yale School of Public Health
📢A team led by St Andrews School of Medicine has been awarded ~£1M by the Chief Scientist Office to conduct cutting-edge end-of-life care research! We look forward to progressing this important work with collaborators NHS Fife , NHS Highland, Highland Hospice, The University of Edinburgh, & Yale School of Public Health, & Fife Community Advisory Council.

This is what HCC Coleman College for Health Sciences is about: collaboration, exploration, respect for each other, and fun. Health science divisions need to build up interprofessional activities among all our professions. Starting these activities from the onset of our students’ training, will allow for students to respect each others chosen profession and understand that they WILL work together once out in the field. Because ultimately, the end goal is positive patient outcomes. We achieve this by working together as a collaborative healthcare team. We need to break silos between our occupations and build bridges instead. Thanks to Dr. Elizabeth Ho for starting this much-needed initiative. These efforts to train the next generation of healthcare professionals to work as a team are paving the way for a bright future. #arrt #txsrt #radiography #radiology #experiences #RADexperiences #asrt #radtech #radiographer #radiologictechnology #radiologic #BeRad #BeSeenASRT #ColemanCollege #HoustonCommunityCollege #Moments #JRCERT #CultureBuilds #healthcare #interprofessional #fun #healthcarecommunity #breaksilosbuildbridges #healthcareprofessionals #healthscience #healthsciencecollege #healthsciencescolleges #healthsciencedivision #healthscienceinitiatives
