My voice is nothing special. A music therapist would use music deliberately to achieve a rehabilitation goal, just like a physical therapist or an occupational therapist. What’s your favorite book? There’s a small book called Music and Creativity in Healthcare Settings written by Hilary Moss.

First we have Michael Kearney, who’s a palliative and hospice doctor at the Cottage Hospital in Santa Barbara and author of several books. His latest book is called Becoming Forest A Story of Deep Belonging, and he’s the founder of the Becoming Forest Project. And I would just plug this book. Canadians are welcoming.

– Anticipatory corpse book mentioned several times on the podcast. One bump is just the classic pitfalls we often talk about in serious illness communication: being very jargony, very information focused, and just providing information. And when I read that book my intern year, it possessed me. All the time. ;).

So when I make a cartoon, usually I’m sending it to a few people before it’s ever seeing the light of social media, to make sure it’s not going to come across as insensitive either to patients or to my fellow providers. And so here’s a picture of four healthcare providers behind bars. Like, oh no, I said it.

So I make the point, they often say, “Oh, you have this special population,” like pediatrics, where it’s 10% or something. And then the duo, physical and cognitive function, those are the seven that… Alex: Oh, that’s a good way of remembering it. Do you worry about that? We actually have the majority.

They have a special skill, and when they see someone who needs it, they need to use it. That makes it really special for them and for me. And it’s not the same, but it does provide information.

Don’t get me wrong, the evidence points to cost savings, but as Chris Callahan and Kathleen Unroe pointed out in a JAGS editorial in 2020 “in comprehensive dementia care models, savings may accrue to Medicare, but the expenses accrue to a fluid and unstable network of local service providers, patients, and their families.” Think about CPC+.

Yeah my life totally sucked because I was double booked. It’s dangerous and unsustainable; emotionally, physically, spiritually, financially for the patients—and for us. I’m just actually providing really good primary health care. See that little drawing of somebody saying help, trying to jump out. Trying to get out.
