Holiday Stress and Wellness Edition: Seasonal Depression
Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D.
Guest: Craig N. Sawchuk, Ph.D., L.P.
It’s relatively common for individuals to feel somewhat sad or have the “winter blues” when the days get shorter and then feel better when we get our daylight back in the spring. However, for some, mood changes can be more serious, and they may be experiencing seasonal affective disorder, a type of depression characterized by recurrent mood changes related to a change in the season. It’s estimated that up to 10 million Americans are affected by this disorder. What’s the natural history of seasonal affective disorder? Is it the same as depression which tends to occur around the holidays? Is seasonal affective disorder related to the time of year or the amount of sunlight and does it ever occur during the summer months? I’ll be asking these questions and more of my guest as we discuss “Seasonal Depression” as part of our “Holiday Stress and Wellness” podcast series. My guest for today’s podcast is psychologist Craig N. Sawchuk, Ph.D., L.P., from the Mayo Clinic.

Ep 13: Harnessing AI for Seniors – Interview with Cheryl Field
In this episode of Nurse Rosa's INsights, Cheryl Field, MSN, RN shares her journey from direct care to clinical informatics and now author. She discusses the importance of technology in enhancing care for seniors, the role of artificial intelligence in healthcare, and her vision for a more integrated healthcare system that prioritizes care coordination.
Cheryl also highlights the gaps in current healthcare practices and how her book, 'Prepared,' aims to empower families navigating the complexities of senior care. Her answer to the Billion Dollar Question:
"I would use those funds to invest in the network in which healthcare data resides making it possible for physician offices, hospitals, chiropractors, dentists, and local specialists to share a view of the medical record. While some hospital health systems have made this investment using some government funding, many providers were left out of that connection. Our ability to build effective AI solutions would be enhanced with additional data sharing, and connectivity."
