Second opinions decrease the risk of a wrong diagnosis by half. But too often, getting in to see an expert can be so challenging that patients forego this step and rely on the initial diagnosis. In this conversation, Frank McGillin, CEO of The Clinic by Cleveland Clinic talks about how they’ve simplified the process so that patients can quickly get second opinions by experts at the Cleveland Clinic – virtually. Key Takeaways: Do your homework. Be clear about what question you are asking. Make sure that you get answers to the issue or questions giving you the most angst. See an expert. Don’t just see ANY doctor for a 2nd opinion. Select a doctor who is more experienced than the first in treating patients with YOUR condition. Be loyal to yourself..and your health…not your doctor. If you have more trust and better communication with the doctor offering a 2nd opinion…it is okay to switch your care. You owe it to yourself to get the best care for you.

In this episode of the Nurse Rosa's INsights podcast, Dr. Kenneth Monaghan shares his extensive experience as a physical therapist specializing in stroke recovery. He discusses the significance of neuroplasticity and home-based recovery, emphasizing the need for caregivers to feel empowered and informed. "The starting point for recovery is very much about changing people's beliefs," he says, highlighting the importance of mindset and motivation in recovery, suggesting that changing beliefs can significantly impact outcomes. Dr. Monaghan has over 32 years of experience in physical therapy, with the last decade including post-doctoral research on this topic. His answer to Rosa's "Billion Dollar Question" also proposes strategic uses for funding to improve health and wellness, particularly through encouraging regular exercise and caregiver support. Key takeaways: He emphasizes the importance of home-based recovery for stroke patients. Neuroplasticity can occur at any time, not just within the first six months post-stroke. Caregivers often feel confused and regretful about their loved ones' recovery. The book includes QR codes linking to videos for better understanding. Mindset plays a crucial role in recovery; positive beliefs can enhance healing. Regular walking can significantly improve health outcomes for all adults. Men often need more motivation to adhere to health and exercise regimens than women. Acknowledgment and encouragement can greatly enhance a stroke survivor's motivation. Creating a daily task list can provide a sense of achievement and motivation.
