I am looking forward to seeing this series of CareSearch: Palliative Care blogs exploring issues around public health context and community approaches that address palliative care and end of life. Understanding the interplay between person, family, health and care systems, and communities should be shaping an integrated framework that supports needs over time, transitions across settings and community and societal contexts. Thanks, Jason, for getting us started!

So many people cannot even access a provider, a provider who can do offer in-person visits post covid, or risk missing an in-person visit due to transportation, child care, illness or many other reasons. Let’s stop creating barriers to #mentalhealth care.
Requiring an in-person visit within 6 months before accessing tele-mental health services creates unnecessary and stigmatizing barriers to care. We urge Congress to support the Telemental Health Care Access Act that would repeal this requirement.

This is a staggering statistic. Telehealth has opened up access for large swaths of the country with little to no behavioral health resources. Interstate licensing compacts and attempts to reduce occupational licensing burdens are additional tools that broaden the pool of talented providers. Still, we must recognize that telehealth is only one treatment method for some situations. There is something lost when you are not able to engage in person. For some, performing their ADLs and showing up somewhere on time is an important part of their treatment. I have been in situations where the smell of someone or the way they walk have been important clues to their mental state. We should find solutions that support high-quality and effective care. #telehealth #behavioralhealth #sud #addiction #recovery

Leaning into the personalization we can provide has been very pertinent to providing world-class care compared to a public health perspective. https://lnkd.in/ePDxxiYA

During this Health Awareness Month, it's important to recognize that Palliative care should be provided in accordance with the principles of universal health coverage. This means that all individuals, regardless of their income, disease type, or age, should have access to a nationally-determined set of basic health services, which includes palliative care. In order to ensure that poor and marginalized population groups receive the necessary care, financial and social protection systems must take into account the human right to access palliative care. #APCC #palliativecare #HealthAwarenessMonth

It’s World Health Day today. Global public health days offer great potential to raise awareness and understanding about health issues and mobilize support for action. As a rebel to my health, you know the guy that hates going to see doctors and dentists, on this day I encourage those to take care of your health. As I get older, I still remain a rebel, but with more understanding as to the importance of taking care of yourself. #WHO #worldhealthday #healthyliving

2moThanks Jason Mills for articulating well the difference between Compassionate Communities and public health palliative care, which seems confusing to many people.
