The guidelines for conducting yourself as a physician used to be: detach from emotion for the sake of getting the job done. In order to be the best listener for our patients we first must be willing to listen to ourselves and what we as health care providers need. Taking care of ourselves and feeling our emotions alongside our patients allows us to both set an example and connect better to those who we care for.

Epic Yale New Haven Health - Good progress. I'd still like you all to consider the whole person at once instead of just the presented symptoms, labeled condition, etc. as you said in your post "...Using Epic, clinicians can automatically generate care plans for patients with a specific issue, like COVID-19 or alcohol use disorder...." - These conditions, as well as all other "conditions" are multi-faceted having physical/emotional/psychological/environmental/personality/culture/etc. components which are all interconnected and create "health" or the lack thereof. Some day, I'd like you to think about holistic diagnosis and treatment looking at the "big picture" around symptoms/maladies. Perhaps the patient could enter a profile into an EHR (like Epic) and AI could provide a draft holistic personalized diagnosis/treatment analysis. Just an idea from a patient/healthcare consumer (me). Perhaps my book might give you ideas too - "Future Healthcare Today: How Technology is Revolutionizing Holistic Wellness” - https://lnkd.in/gzi7se9r
When care delivery is inconsistent, it can lead to higher costs and worse clinical outcomes. Our friends at Yale New Haven Health are making significant progress addressing this issue by creating a standardized model for evaluating, diagnosing, and treating certain medical conditions. They call this their Care Signature Initiative. Using Epic, clinicians can automatically generate care plans for patients with a specific issue, like COVID-19 or alcohol use disorder. Since its launch in late 2019, Yale New Haven Health has successfully developed over 600 Care Signature Pathways. "We have gotten to a reduction in variation that has been a bedrock of quality improvement for years," says Chief Clinical Officer Thomas Balcezak, MD, MPH. Congrats to Yale New Haven Health on reaching this impressive milestone. Read more about their journey here: https://lnkd.in/gH6TG4qj #healthcare #healthIT #careplans

June 6 is International "What Matters to You?" Day. As kidney health professionals, asking, listening to and prioritizing what matters to your patients supports equitable, person-centred care, builds trust, and improves patient outcomes and experiences. Patients are the experts on their own experiences, and can advocate best for their specific needs and concerns. Kidney health professionals can help patients determine what matters to them by initiating conversations on patient goal-setting, encouraging collaboration, and educating themselves.
