Join us for our next live webinar event, "New Perspectives on Negative Symptoms: Incorporating Meaning-Centered Approaches and Lived Experience into Clinical Practice" with Marie Brown, PhD, Nev Jones, PhD, and Shannon Pagdon, BA. This event promises to be an enlightening session, offering fresh insights and challenging traditional views on what are known as negative symptoms. Date: Friday, June 28th, 2024 Time: 1pm-2:30pm (Eastern) Can't make it live? Don't worry; a recording will be sent to all registrants. Webinar Description Contemporary psychological/psychiatric practices typically view negative symptoms as fixed, individual, ‘deficits’ with biological underpinnings. This conceptualization is problematic in that it neglects the importance of social, political, and structural influences/determinants of “negative symptoms”. Although a great deal of alternative and meaning-oriented work has addressed so-called “positive symptoms” such as voices, visions and extreme beliefs, scant attention has been paid to “negative symptoms”, such as alogia, social withdrawal, and anhedonia. We seek to fill this gap through exploring alternative, meaning-centered, and lived experience perspectives on “negative symptoms”. We argue that traditional frameworks pathologize so-called ‘negative symptoms’, and in turn create harmful narratives that leave people stuck. Instead, we argue that so-called “negative symptoms” have generative potential and urge a paradigmatic shift towards approaches that center the voices of people with lived experience and integrate socio-political context. Included in this talk will be a review of our project Rethink Negative Symptoms, which collected direct first-person narratives of experiences that have been labelled "negative symptoms," lived experience perspectives on associated language, terminology and alternatives, and critiques/concerns of the construct.

How do you explain children’s palliative care? What do you find compelling to move others to action?  Three truths this article highlights to grow understanding of children’s palliative care to move others to action: 🦺 “When children are seriously ill, the whole family is in a state of emergency.” Holistic care that considers the entire family is essential. 🌅 “A children's hospice can provide relief.” Providers can meet the needs of children and families at a critical time - both in and out of formal settings. 🛏️ Great children’s palliative care recognises the needs of the whole family. We loved seeing how this hospice is designed with equal rooms for children needing care and their accompanying family members. #pediatricpalliativecare #childhealth #childrenshospice

👂Putting people’s voices at the heart of health care can spark true transformation. 💫 Our listening work shows that people want coordinated, 𝙋𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙚𝙣𝙩-𝙁𝙞𝙧𝙨𝙩 𝘾𝙖𝙧𝙚 (known widely as value-based care)—a system where providers communicate effectively to support whole-person care. This approach prioritizes quality over quantity in a way that resonates with people and what they want the most in their health care. Yesterday’s announcement from Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services proves the power of the patient-first care model. In 2023, the Medicare Shared Savings Program (MSSP) saved Medicare $2.1 billion while enhancing care quality and reducing out-of-pocket costs for patients. Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) led by primary care providers (PCPs) are leading the charge by delivering lower-cost, more coordinated care—especially to underserved populations. The results speak volumes: 🌟 𝗛𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗲𝗿-𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘀 in critical areas like diabetes and blood pressure management, cancer screenings, and mental health support. 🌟 𝗦𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗱 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 for underserved communities to advance health equity.  🌟 𝗥𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘄𝗲𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗰𝘂𝘀 on the vital role of primary care in patient-first models. Our Patient-First Care Policy Principles offer a roadmap for policymakers to ensure that health care models put patients needs and outcomes first at every stage. We encourage policymakers and stakeholders to use these principles as a lens for evaluating policy proposals, ensuring that new models and legislation fulfill the promise of patient-first care.

Tip 1: Know how to identify people with disabilities in your community. Many population health surveys use the six standard disability questions to identify disabled people.https://ow.ly/NVk050SsSeN These questions can also be used to help you identify people who need accommodations. For example, these questions can be incorporated into your State’s National Quitline to identify people with disabilities and any accommodations needed for tobacco cessation.
