If you're looking for memory care for a loved one, it's important that you learn as much as possible about each potential option.

Did you know that out of the 930 NHS hospitals and over 200 private hospitals in the UK, only 122 have a registered Changing Places toilet? 😲 That's just not enough! Over 250,000 people in the UK need assistance with changing and using the toilet due to disabilities. When hospitals lack Changing Places toilets, it becomes incredibly challenging for them to access essential medical appointments and connect with loved ones. This isn't just about convenience; it's about ensuring everyone has equal access to healthcare and support. Check out our blog which highlights 3 compelling reasons why increasing the number of hospitals with registered Changing Places is crucial!

✅ Imagine a world where palliative care is a standard part of healthcare. Every clinician equipped to offer basic palliative services. That's the goal. 🤝 Interdisciplinary palliative care teams should be the backbone of all healthcare systems, ensuring every patient receives the comprehensive care they deserve. 📚 Knowledge is power. Patients need to be aware of hospice services long before they find themselves in need of them, ensuring they can make informed choices about their care. 🌍 And let's talk about equity – it's crucial that education, access, and provision of these services are fair and inclusive, reaching every corner of our society.

On my way back home from the The Ohio Hospital Association Annual Conference. My flight's delayed (Thanks Delta Air Lines) so now I have more time to wax poetic about the conference. For those that are newer to my network, I've spent most of my career in clinical hospital and health system leadership until I pivoted to PointClickCare as the pandemic was winding down. Let me tell you, after being entrenched in the pandemic, it is so refreshing to talk about high reliability organizations, social media policies, and effective leadership once again. There's a lot happening in Ohio and there is an intentionality in how the state and individual health systems are tackling really complex healthcare problems. How do we actually calculate the cost of a readmission? How do we assign patients to hospitalists in a more geographic way to reduce inefficiencies and decrease length of stay? A lot of best practices were shared. At a more macro level, hospitals and state agencies are coming together to tackle complex public health issues like Maternal Health. At the Maternal Health summit, I learned what the Ohio Department of Children and Youth are doing to support prenatal and postpartum particularly with their visiting nurse program. I learned that about the Ohio Perinatal Collaborative. And, I learned that a key barrier in these initiatives are disparate stratified data and lack of knowledge of mothers accessing maternal health services in the emergency departments. The good news is that the state is funding these great initiatives. I love learning about these bottom-up and top-down approaches to improving the health of the most vulnerable populations. I think both are so needed, and I am excited to support key stakeholders in Ohio to improve healthcare access and deliver across the state!
