I’m originally an ER physician. I’d been doing ER medicine for over a decade when I went back to palliative fellowship. You know, actually, Eric, I want to tell you, actually, about a different patient, if you don’t mind, instead of Mr. A. Because this is where the seed of the idea started for all this music for me.

You know, most, most ERs admit, you know, far fewer than 50% of their patients. They go to observation and go home or just get discharged straight from the ER? The one thing that we know is that education alone will not actually deliver behavior change. So I’m going to be called every 20 minutes to go to the ER.

When I come across arrogant GPs and medical professionals, I wonder how they would handle the stress of a full NICU/PICU/ER/Casualty. Questioning, not to genuinely inquire and start an educational discussion, but questioning to make you doubtful. I myself, have been in similar situations.

I felt like more often than not, we erred towards dialysis because there it is. And the question is, is this uremia or is this something else? Is it delirium from something else? And is dialysis the right treatment in this situation? It’s right there. It’s easy. AMA PRA Category 1 credit(s) ™.

He uses comics and other artwork to share his experiences in palliative care and educate others about topics like empathy and communication skills. And a doc over in Spain named Monica Lalanda, who is an ER doc and also a cartoonist, reached out to me and said you don’t have to do this anonymously. That blew my mind.

Working with Abe Brody at NYU to do a randomized control trial of an intervention for education, for psychotropic use in end stage dementia patients. Because no hospice will take a chance on her because she has end stage dementia every time she falls, she’s got to go to the er. How do we make this work for patients and families?

So elderly people who aspirated, got pneumonia, had an mi, didn’t get hauled off to the emergency room on an ambulance crew so they could die in the ER. The intention was to place it in the beds in nursing homes. That’s why we did it. Now I’ve got 45 year olds asking. AMA PRA Category 1 credit(s) ™.

There’s radiation keeps getting less and less and there are studies that you can avoid radiation if you have this stage one or even two small or low grade or sometimes even, whatever, higher grade two, but not in the nodes type of breast cancer, an ER-positive or HER2-negative.

I think a lot of back office function, predicting ER loads and OR loads to do better scheduling of staff.

I want to thank you for joining on this GeriPal Podcast. Eric: Yeah.

You add to that employment discrimination, criminal justice discrimination, and of course educational system discrimination, and of course, we pay for our public schools based on local taxes. They didn’t go to the psych ER again. The psych ER was still open, and they spent money. We basically met them. I don’t know.

Patients will come into the ER, they bypass the inpatient experience entirely, and go straight home. And then, it did, finally, come to an end, but the hospital-at-home community was able to educate policymakers. I distinctly remember being in the ER, trying to recruit patients for this program. And that’s more standard.
