Speaking of @PalliativeQual - do you do palliative care?
Do you follow the Palliative Care Quality Collaborative? No time like the present! Twitter is still here!
@arifkamalmd on palliative care as a field: "We're kinda badass!"
Wish I felt this way more often! Always good to be reminded! #hapc#pedpc
"Palliative care is the field that embodies the quote 'people won't remember what you say, or what you do, but they will remember how you made them feel'". #hapc#pedpc @arifkamalmd#QMC2022@PalliativeQual
Arif made me laugh out loud!
He knows he should floss. (evidence based)
Getting him to floss is a different thing. (#QI)
I also hate flossing. I'm sorry, dentists. #QMC2022#hapc#pedpc@PalliativeQual@arifkamalmd
"QI is counter culture because it often involves changing things that are baked in...you are taking things that are well baked and trying to break them. To disrupt without being disruptive."
Reminds me of palliative care. #hapc#pedpc#QI#QMC2022@arifkamalmd@PalliativeQual

Most importantly-
Be crystal clear about how others experience you.
Be crystal clear about how others experience themselves when they are with you.
I love the title of this slide.
Pointing out the importance of
Self awareness- what are my strengths?
Self management- what are my blind spots? how do i
Social awareness- what is this room telling me?
Social skills- managing relationships and building networks
Day 2 @theNASEM workshop
The highlight from day 1: LaToya, a CNA, gave a moving, honest, courageous account of being a direct care worker. “The ice cream truck should not be a luxury.”
- hours & pay are bad, the work is hard & they love & care their patients & their dignity
@theNASEM First up- @EspinozaNotes from @PHInational
The intense focus on direct care workers, paying people a living wage, improving working conditions so that we can also improve patient care during this event has given me so much hope
“Social determinants of success at work” is one phrase that stuck out to me yesterday. @mad_sters doing critical work in this area for direct care workers
But I think about it for others who work in our system too.
Good morning from the Keck Center @theNASEM where I am so pleased to be part of their workshop this morning to support and sustain the workforce to care for people with serious illness! #hapc#pedpc#wellness#wellbeing#suffering
Thinking about how the same gesture can be received as incredibly compassionate or just- not- depending on the actor.
Ex- after 4 was in the ED, I took cookies to say thank you. The nurse cried. "No one does this."
But if an org leader did the same, likely different response. 1/
I appreciate that the meaning and receipt of the gesture depends a lot on the power and intention of the person making it.
An org leader can change difficult working conditions and chooses instead to bring cookies, that's incompetent compassion for workers.
2/
I think the best case is to work in a system in which clinicians are so well cared for, that even small gestures by leaders can be received as helpful and a kind of love.
To get to that place requires fixing structural healthcare workplace issues first.

Next up: Fr218A- Agitation and feeding intolerance in children with medical complexity with @StocktonBev and Dr. Katherine Maddox!
Front row is Dr. Julie Hauer. The OG of this topic who wrote the book. If you don’t have it and you do #pedpc here is a link: bookshop.org/p/books/caring…
Julie Hauer did a study on gabapentin in children with Med complexity and feeding intolerance- remarkable response in sx. (That’s Julie’s head in front of the slide! I fan girl every time I interact with her.) ❤️ #hapc23#pedpc
