Joe 03:55 You know, my thoughts are screening is important for a variety of reasons, and certainly Doctor Boris and Soo and Anna, Doctor chodos can provide a lot greater clinical insight than I.

Some of our healthcare systems are hard, and challenging, and I think that it’s time that we have a change. I think there’s maybe a little bit of debate as to when those turn from being just normal age related changes to then being something more, but it happens in many different areas of healthcare. Eric: Lovely.

This is both a research and a clinical interest of yours. But that just didn’t really resonate with what I saw clinically which was that there was lots of suffering both in the patient, their family and on the clinical team and just felt it was really this space where I didn’t have a lot of evidence to guide me.

Why this study was a success due to the sheer size (nearly 100,000 patients in about 30 EDs) of the study, and the fact that, as far as the investigators know, all study sites continue to employ the clinical decision support tool. And then we had clinical decision support. What is a clinical decision support? Long overdue.

It’s like how liberating it is to eliminate resentments, regrets and envy from our lives and how great it is in our clinical practice when we’re able to help families reconcile after an estrangement, how much relief that brings.

We just couldn’t find one that quite fit our needs, and I’m sure that they differ to some extent by the clinical context, so we reviewed a bunch of categorizations that were in the literature and this was the most parsimonious group that we could come up with, that I thought captured the core elements of spirituality.

Healthcare, just the way healthcare is structured, that’s not something that’s feasible unless there’s a specific symptom management need that allows for more care, but just to provide simple care doesn’t exist. There’s a consistency of understanding and approach that I think is helpful.
