📣“CHANGE IS POSSIBLE AND URGENT.” Read this if you see that US PRIMARY CARE has major issues and CAN BE CHANGED! 👩🏻⚕️ As I read the examples the #physicians gave in this study, I think about how these scenarios would have played out in #directprimarycare, arguably an important solution option to address changing #primarycare for the better. ✅In terms of #solutions, #DPC delivers from reduced waiting times, smaller panels, increased time with patients, even integrations for tech. 🎙️I am #proud to be a part of the #dpc movement and highlight #physicianstories every Sunday because the @mydpcstory #podcast is a place where people driven to deliver care differently can hear from our colleagues who are doing just that. 👏🏼Thx for highlighting Michelle-Linh Nguyen and Shannon Satterwhite! #healthcare #healthcareinnovation #primarycarephysician #valuebasedcare #transparency #patientcenteredcare

This methodology for ranking hospitals focuses on real-time analysis of online patient reviews across various platforms. Patient experience comments were assessed across seven domains: fast access, effective treatment, emotional support, communication & involvement, attention to physical and environmental needs, continuity of care, and billing and administration.

Moving away from an ‘appointment-first’ approach could be the solution to the challenges of patient access. Offers Compelling insights worth pondering.

Join our webinar on 22 May, where Chandana Samaranayake MD, Head of Clinical Solutions and Consulting at Ascom, shares our vision of how technology can provide a better work environment and improve patient experience, without compromising outcomes. Reserve your spot today and learn how can a calmer ICU environment be created (link in the 1st comment)

Fun Fact Friday: Celebrating Innovations in Hospital Medicine! Happy Friday, everyone! Today, let's explore the fascinating world of Hospital Medicine, a crucial yet often overlooked field. Did You Know? Hospital Medicine is a relatively new specialty, established in the 1990s, focused on the comprehensive care of hospitalized patients. Hospitalists, as they are called, manage patient care during the hospital stay, ensuring continuity and coordination that lead to better outcomes. Impact on Patient Care Studies show that hospitalists' involvement reduces patient stay lengths by up to 30% and significantly improves the quality of care. A Collaborative Approach Hospitalists work closely with all departments, from pharmacy to physical therapy, creating a multidisciplinary team dedicated to patient recovery. Their role is pivotal in emergency responses, routine care, and complex case management. Let's salute our dear Hospitalists led by Josiah Kwesi Halm at MDA, who work tirelessly behind the scenes. Their dedication and innovation continue to shape the future of healthcare. #HospitalMedicine #HealthcareInnovation #MedicalProfessionals #FunFactFriday #DepartmentofHospitalMedicine #DHM #MDAnderson #MDA #EndCancer #MakingCancerHistory

Preventing a False Positive Blood Culture can have a direct impact on Patient Care and reduce unnecessary Length of Stay. Check out the financial impact of this initiative in various settings, including specific Hospital Data and State Hospital Associations. Is this something your Facility is interested in exploring? Connect with me and our Team at Magnolia Medical Technologies to learn more about how our Technology, Steripath Micro, can be a part of this practice change! #healthcare #patientcare #medicaltechnology #innovation

David Selwyn, Medical Director and Deputy CEO at Sherwood Forest Hospitals, at the 2019 launch of CPOC, explained the transformational potential for perioperative care. 5 years on, the need for transformation and CPOC has never been greater. Thanks for bringing this fully into the spotlight Gary Birks MSc - it's the key to long term recovery of elective surgery and improved patient outcomes from surgery. David Selwyn: "So, what does it mean for my patients?" It means reviewing and changing how we currently run the surgical perioperative pathway, it means reviewing and re-designing how we work, how our patient flows are established and how we prepare our patients for surgery and how and who decides that they are optimised for surgery. It means changing the postoperative course with increased emphasis on enhanced recovery after surgery and it means re-designing our discharge processes so that this is planned and arranged in advance of the surgical event. #centreforperioperativecare #CPOC Stella Vig https://lnkd.in/ew6Kj-9H

Only TWO days left to avail the early bird discount! Join us in Chicago from April 25-27, 2024, for the 37th IAA Annual Conference. Meeting the evolving needs of patients today and in the future necessitates the exploration and application of advancements in clinical science and technology in anaplastology. Each case presents unique challenges, emphasizing the importance of tailored approaches. The theme for this year, "Anaplastology: Something For Everyone," underscores the diverse specialties contributing to patient care. We encourage you to reflect on how your distinct skills and interests can enhance patient rehabilitation. With patient needs being multifaceted, anaplastology must embrace a diverse network of specialists to ensure the best outcomes.

The opportunity to shift from waiting to preparation represents a transformative opportunity in the approach to surgical waiting lists. By embracing this paradigm shift, aligning with NHS targets, implementing perioperative care blueprints, and leveraging digital solutions, we pave the way for a healthcare landscape where waiting is not merely an idle period but an active phase of preparation for better patient engagement, outcomes and system efficiency.

A lot is going on in healthcare right now (and thankfully, there is an acronym for it all). VBC, or value-based care, is the future. And that future is getting closer every day thanks to companies like PEP Health who are using complex technology (AI/ML) to innovate, simplify, and enhance the patient experience with better data: real-time, transparent scoring and rankings of healthcare systems and hospitals. What's one more acronym... PEP = patient experience platform.
