“Suboptimal provider-parent communication contributes to poor parent comprehension of pediatric discharge instructions, which can lead to adverse outcomes. Residency is a critical window to acquire and learn to utilize key communication skills, potentially supported by formal training programs or visual reminders.” Alexander F. Glick, MD, MS, Jonathan S. Farkas, MD, Jasmine Gadhavi, MD, Alan L. Mendelsohn, MD, Nicole Schulick, BS, and H. Shonna Yin, MD, MS, Pediatric Resident Communication of Hospital Discharge Instructions, HLRP: Health Literacy Research and Practice, 2023; 7(4): e178–e186, https://lnkd.in/egepPcGh #healtheducation #patienteducation #healthcommunication #healthcareeducation #healthcarecommunication #patientsafety #patientoutcomes

FROM RAVAGE TO RECOVERY: A Testament of Hope 🌟 Some months ago, I was part of a dedicated medical team faced with a daunting challenge: a 12 year old female child who was critically ill, her health hanging by the thinnest thread. A race against time, but we were resolute in our mission to bring this young life back from the edge. Through tireless efforts and multidisciplinary teamwork, we watched as this child's condition slowly transformed. We watched her struggle to summon the resolve to live again on most days. There were days we saw no visible progress and there were days we witnessed tangible improvements. One routine through another, multiple re-assurance & counseling to our patient as well as family members, a little over 3 months on hospital admission, we watched this child gradually get up to her feet again. In the medical profession, we encounter several challenging situations, critically ill patients, to varying degrees. We’ve lost some, we’ve shed a tear or three. But this…this was a testimony for the books. This story isn't just about a medical team; it's about the strength of a child and the unyielding support of their family. It's a reminder that, in the face of adversity, hope and determination can overcome even the most daunting challenges. As I script this piece, I'm reminded again of why I chose a career in medicine. It's about making a difference, no matter how small or grand, in the lives of those we serve. It's about holding onto hope, even when circumstances seem dire. 🌈 #MedicalMiracles #HopeInHealthcare #TeamworkTriumphs I was privileged to work with this team of health professionals on this case.

Today, we kickstart our awareness campaign for SUDEP Action Day on October 18th. SUDEP Action Day brings organisations and individuals together to shed light on SUDEP (Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy) and epilepsy-related deaths worldwide. Are you familiar with our SUDEP and Seizure Safety Checklist? The SUDEP and Seizure Safety Checklist is an evidence based tool designed for doctors and epilepsy nurses as a clinical tool to support risk communication with their adult patients with epilepsy, and to help develop a plan to assess and reduce the risks. 🎥Learn more about SUDEP in this video and on our website here: https://loom.ly/9xfRDJs Contact our helpful epilepsy nurses via the National Epilepsy Line on 1300 37 45 37 to learn more about SUDEP and our SUDEP and Seizure Safety Checklist for your patients living with epilepsy. #SUDEPActionDay #EpilepsyAwareness #SUDEP #EpilepsyWarriors #mysafetymatters
