The future of data in in collaboration among standards bodies (Rachel Dunscombe)

This short discussion with Rachel Dunscombe, CEO of openEHR International Foundation, was recorded in Reading at the first openEHR Annual conference. Rachel Dunscombe discussed trends in data standards and the importance of structured data for the future development of AI. Recap of the discussion: Historical Context and Progress in Data Standards: Thirty years ago, the "Good European Healthcare Record" initiative aimed to create a standardized European healthcare record. How does it relate to EHDS and efforts for single patient records on European level. Unlike the past, today's digital landscape and AI advancements underscore the importance of standardized, actionable data for remote care and patient self-management. Collaboration Among Standards Bodies: Recent years have seen increased cooperation among standards organizations like FHIR, OpenEHR, and SNOMED, with a focus on complementing rather than duplicating efforts. Standards bodies are now defining clearer roles and working together toward a unified goal of improving healthcare outcomes. Need for Practical Implementation and Governance: Effective implementation of standards requires practical guides for healthcare systems, developed collaboratively by standards bodies. Open, democratic communities with strong governance are essential to ensure diverse input and practical guidance for using standards effectively. AI and Data Quality: Good data quality is foundational for effective AI in healthcare; without it, AI solutions cannot achieve optimal results. Standards are crucial for creating "trustworthy" AI and have been discussed at forums like the United Nations, emphasizing the need for global alignment on data standards. Future Goals and Global Standards: Continued development of clear, internationally recognized standards will support interoperability and innovation in healthcare, including AI-driven solutions. Guidelines from standards bodies are anticipated to help healthcare systems apply data standards cohesively for population health benefits. Resources and Engagement: The podcast "Faces of Digital Health" and its associated newsletter discuss these topics, offering updates on trends and insights in healthcare digitalization and standards. www.facesofdigitalhealth.com Newsletter: https://fodh.substack.com/

The Good Fight with Dr. Theresa Cullen

Dr. Theresa “Terry” Cullen is on a mission to make Pima County, Arizona one of the healthiest counties in the nation. It’s a challenging goal, and one that will take dedication and a willingness to fight for what’s right. But, Terry is a self-described, life-long pugilist – with an approach to healthcare that goes beyond policies and programs. Everything she does is rooted in her deep belief in accompaniment; that her role is to walk alongside her patients and community offering empathy, dignity and respect. We discuss:Her work as a rural doctor with the Indian Health Service Deploying to West Africa in 2014 for the Ebola crisisWhy the VA and DOD could not agree on electronic health recordsHer commitment to make Pima county one of the healthiest in the nationTerry reminds us that sometimes we need to step back and look at the work we do through a new lens:“My husband's an artist, and he challenges me all the time to look at something and look at the light. Look at the composition. Look at where it is. What's the pattern there? You know, and a lot of medicine is based on pattern, but think of a disruptive pattern. Think of a puzzle where the piece doesn't fit and what do you need to do to make that piece fit? Because if it falls into place, maybe the whole thing will heal.”Relevant LinksDefinition of pugilistResolve to save lives - 717 allianceHealthy Pima Indicators About Our GuestTheresa Cullen is currently the Public Health Director of Pima County, Arizona.

#279: From Alarm to Exhaustion: Self-Awareness and Stress in Leadership

In this episode of The TRU Leader podcast, hosts Michelle and Tracy discuss the pervasive nature of stress in leadership and its impact on well-being. The episode delves into the general adaptation syndrome, which outlines the body’s response to prolonged stress in three stages—alarm, resistance, and exhaustion. They explore stress management strategies to prevent burnout, drawing from Michelle’s personal experience with stress-induced vision problems. The conversation highlights the concept of "microstressors," subtle but persistent stress factors that can accumulate and lead to significant emotional tolls. Citing research by Rob Cross and Karen Dillon, they emphasize that high achievers often face unique stressors, such as managing both work and family responsibilities. The hosts challenge common leadership norms that create undue pressure, such as the need for certainty and avoidance of vulnerability, and propose healthier leadership practices. They introduce a stress continuum model to help leaders gauge their stress levels, along with having a polarity mindset to balance competing values like self-care and caring for others. Leadership is likened to a marathon, requiring both endurance and recovery. The episode also encourages proactive strategies like open communication, prioritization, and mindfulness. To further discuss these themes, listeners are encouraged to join our FREE webinar titled “From Stress to Success: The Formula for Leaders to Excel Professionally and Personally” which offering tools to help leaders thrive both professionally and personally.

Navigating the Challenges of Mom’s Dementia: A Daughter’s Story

In this replay of an Aging & Amazing Book Club discussion, we engage in a deep and emotional conversation with Carolyn Birrell, discussing her personal experience as a caregiver for her mother, who had dementia. Carolyn, author of Walking with Fay: My Mother’s Uncharted Path into Dementia, shares her story of coping with the challenges of caregiving, its emotional toll, and the need to find humor and love in the face of difficult and unlovable behavior from her mother. She also shares the emotional story of the last days of her mother’s life during the height of the COVID-19 lockdown. Throughout, Carolyn emphasizes the need for caregivers to find encouragement in being more loving during this difficult process, even when faced with resentment and disappointment. One of the most notable insights shared is Carolyn's reflection on learning to see past the unlovable behavior of her mother and to remember the person she fell in love with. Quotes Balancing Care and Judgment: "One of the most frightening things for me during that time was the perception from others that I was being overreactive and controlling and was inserting myself into my mother's life unnecessarily." Caring for a Loved One with Dementia: "I was able to manage her quality of care, but I wasn't able to manage her quality of life." Finding Encouragement in Challenging Times: "When I wrote the book, I thought I was writing it for people who were feeling alone and I wanted them to know that no, you're not alone, that others have gone through this just like you. You're going to be okay and hang in there." Finding Humor and Love in Caregiving: "And I think what I really learned from this whole thing is trying to find the humor and the spirit of actual loving this person who has become oftentimes unlovable." In this episode, you will: ·     Uncover insightful tips for navigating the unique challenges of dementia caregiving ·     Understand the profound impact of COVID-19 on dementia care ·     Discover effective coping strategies for dementia caregivers during challenging times. ·     Learn about the valuable support and resources available through the Alzheimer's Association support groups After the podcast Read Carolyn’s AlzAuthors post Purchase Walking With Fay now Note: We are an Amazon Associate and may receive a small commission from book sales.
