?? Breaking the Myth: In-Home Primary Care is NOT Just Temporary or for End-of-Life! Many believe that in-home primary care is only for patients nearing the end of life or for short-term needs. The truth? In-home primary care is a comprehensive and long-term healthcare solution designed to meet patients where they are — in the comfort of their own homes. ?? Did You Know? ?

For adults over 65, managing health can feel like a never-ending treadmill of appointments and providers. This article highlights the challenges of navigating a fragmented system that can often feel exhausting rather than empowering. We’re rethinking this approach with longer appointments, preventative care, and a focus on truly understanding our patients. By ensuring visits are proactive and focused on managing chronic conditions, we aim to reduce care costs and make healthcare simpler, more effective, and more human. What if healthcare could be less about hurdles and more about connection and empowerment of patients? #Connection #EmpoweringCare #PreventativeCare #WomensClinic

The increasing number of young people turning to emergency departments (EDs) over physicians' practices or clinics has been causing significant crowding and delays for many hospitals and health systems in recent years. To decompress EDs and improve patient care, it's crucial to understand the factors driving this trend. Check out the article below for some insight into this impactful issue! #insights #emergencydepartment #healthcareinsights #EDdecompression #healthcareoperations

???? Navigating Healthcare Maze: A Growing Challenge for Seniors ???? Healthcare for older adults is becoming an ""overwhelmingly complex"" labyrinth, according to a new study from Brigham and Women's Hospital. With the average senior spending over 20 days a year in medical settings, the system's complexity can be daunting. ???? As we advance in medical technology and treatment, the need for coordinated care increases, but so does the complexity.

What are “socially admitted” patients??? I read this interesting article titled: Managing "Socially Admitted" Patients in Hospital: A Qualitative Study of Health Care Providers' Perceptions What did they find? 1. Label Impact: Labeling socially admitted patients can lead to misconceptions, resulting in inadequate care and untreated medical conditions. 2. Passive Care: These patients often receive passive, hands-off care, deprioritized over acute or surgical cases. 3. Moral Distress: Providers experience moral distress due to insufficient training or resources for managing socially admitted patients. 4. Stigma and Assumptions: Stigma reinforces ageist beliefs and premature assumptions about cognitive abilities. 5. Emergency Departments: Vulnerable patients rely on emergency departments as a last resort due to lengthy waitlists for community services. 6. Holistic Approach: Holistic care approaches must account for patients' medical, social, and economic factors. 7. Specialized Teams: Specialized seniors' care teams can ensure equitable support and comprehensive care. 8. Policy Reevaluation: We need to reevaluate policies around social admissions to deliver the compassionate, comprehensive care these patients deserve. ??

As with so many other issues right now, Democrats are out of touch entirely. Note of transparency: I’d be dead if not for community based care. I was at the Phoenix VA during the wait time scandal. I fought for my life to get community based care because the VA mental health team, practices and policies there were unequivocally barbaric. I’ve spoken with highly experienced retired officer nurses who train and work in VA psych realms. They confirmed the VAs mental health regime. It’s insulated, out of public view, and toxic. Lives are surely lost to these people; I have also come to believe that limiting care to VA only keeps veterans, our needs, and the price we pay, in a silo … VA exclusive care is one reason Americans don’t appreciate or even grasp our sacrifices. Civilian doctors and helping providers are not asked to build skills around treating veterans. So they remain in ignorance about the price of freedoms and even complex medical cases. On top of all of this, the so called “data” on positive outcomes using VA services changes drastically when adjusted for sub demographics. I do not think it’s realistic to expect this governement behemoth to transform — not without fundamental reform. Even the VA leadership switches out with political administrations? There is no continuity? How many multi billion dollar corporations can you think of that would thrive under such conditions? And, lastly, this love affair between Big Pharma and the VA and the harm they do to veterans, especially over prescribing psychotropics, sans trauma informed care, is an unacknowledged human civil rights atrocity.

Additionally, if you don’t have a family doctor, the PFHT Health Clinic is a great option for same-day or next-day care for non-urgent issues. #yourhealthmatters #ptbocounty
