On this podcast we talk about her paper in JAMA Internal Medicine which studied three hospitals that varied in the intensity of care they provided to seriously ill patients.

So we have community volunteers who often they have a background in writing or background in healthcare, certainly an interest in interviewing and an interest in writing. And then we also have another Vas, many of the interviews are done by medical students or other healthcare trainees as part of their clinical rotation at the VA.

Certainly a lot of communities we’re thinking about LA right now and the collective trauma that they’re experiencing from the fires. So thinking about addressing trauma as part of our management of other symptoms can be really helpful or at least taking a trauma informed lens to our medical approach.

Archives of Internal Medicine 2010. One of them is Karen Steinhauser’s Annals of Internal Medicine paper on, In Search of a Good Death. It improves symptom management.

Bob: No, people should buy them from a real bricks and mortar bookstore because I read this story that 90% of the books that are sold in this country are sold through Amazon, which is great for Amazon and Jeff Bezos but if you want bookstores to live in your community, order them from the bookstore in your community. Well it helps you.

NIH study about long COVID published the day before in Annals of Internal Medicine. And if you look at the span of history of infectious diseases, we have always managed to control all infectious diseases because we have tools because it’s the other, it’s not yourself.
