Cultivating a Digital Culture for Effective Patient Engagement
Cultivating a Digital Culture for Effective Patient Engagement offers a strategic framework for healthcare provider websites in order to support patient engagement and connected health initiatives. Referred to as the Health Empowerment Web Strategy Index (HEWSi), the proposed framework is complemented by a detailed "check list" of health empowerment items organizations should incorporate into their website design.A healthcare provider's website should be an effective resource for empowering the health of patients no matter where patients are in their digital culture evolution. The challenge for many organizations is that patient engagement/connected health initiatives are frequently developed and managed separately from the organization's digital marketing efforts. This book recognizes this disconnect and advocates for a reimaging of healthcare provider websites based on the four domains of the HEWSi strategic framework: (1) orienting; (2) enlightening; (3) aligning; and (4) personalizing. As a framework and toolkit, HEWSi helps breakdown patient engagement silos within healthcare organizations by allowing varied functional teams (marketing; web developers; patient experience staff; clinical leaders; HIM/HIS personnel; etc.) to congregate around a shared pathway for conversing, strategizing, planning, and developing an effective patient empowerment website.
Speaking Human
The ongoing evolution and application of health sciences has recast humanity's relationship with health and mortality.The transformative changes in modern medicine exist in an environment of high speed and efficient care that frequently fails to slow down enough to fully appreciate the person, to speak human. Palliative medicine seeks not just to manage symptoms but to utilize sensemaking and assist in navigating the complexities of life-limiting illness. These stories traverse a journey into learning the skills necessary to provide this specialized care. In this book, Dr. Durie, a palliative care nurse practitioner, shares exemplar stories as tools framing how to engage in critically important conversations. The work spans twenty-five years of practice and captures the unforeseen challenges born from the COVID-19 pandemic. Honest, raw, and unfiltered, it is the author's hope that fellow clinicians will borrow and tailor language for their own practice and that readers not in healthcare might better understand what palliative care can offer.
Kidney Transplantation and Donation
Much ink has been spilled about kidney transplantation. Many books have been written on the subject and examined it from multiple aspects like the medical and scientific viewpoints, the ethical, legal, and psychological standpoints, or the policy perspectives. However, unlike previous manuscripts that focused on a particular facet or feature and researched it profoundly, this book's uniqueness is inherent in its all-encompassing nature. The novelty of this book is expressed in its comprehensiveness. It looks at kidney transplantation and donation from a bird's-eye view to give the reader a complete and inclusive description. This book might not be as thorough or exhaustive as previous works; nevertheless, it tackles different aspects of kidney transplantation and donation and provides the reader with a broad view of the subject. To name a few, the interested reader will gain knowledge about tissue typing, system analysis, organ allocation policies and strategies, and ethical, legal, and policy issues. The book has an appeal to clinicians and the lay public alike. Though it discusses medical terms, point-system policies, or mathematical models, it presents a clear and readable version that guides the expert and the layman through the realm of organ transplantation. The book starts with illustrating the background, the problems, and the technical terms to engage the reader with the complex field of organ transplantation. After the readers are familiar with transplantation's cornerstones, the book delves into specific issues like allocation policies and alternative proposals, vulnerable populations, community preferences, and balancing equity and efficiency. Eventually, the book comes full circle and suggests possible strategies to increase deceased donors' supply and use. In conclusion, the book demonstrates the importance of organ transplantation policies and the need for revision and improvement without being cumbersome and tedious.
Effective Crisis Leadership in Healthcare
COVID-19 thrust the world into a state of crisis for which no one was adequately prepared, and the fact is that no industry was so hard-hit as healthcare. Although some providers were more equipped than others, without warning all physicians' offices and hospitals were obligated to stay up and running through the deadly pandemic while delivering life-saving care and preventing wide-spread infection.Effective Crisis Leadership in Healthcare conveys hard-learned tactics, strategies, and advice to enable healthcare leaders to increase their confidence and mental preparedness prior to the next big catastrophe. This book addresses industry-wide problems revealed by COVID-19 like inadequate crisis planning, lack of financial stability, and inexperience with communication and leadership. How does this book give you an advantage?

Daddy Is Still Here!
Daddy Is Still Here! is the back story to the author's first book of the Still Here series, Mama Is Still Here! This book is about a son in his forty's caregiving journey for three individuals with three very different diseases. His mother's Alzheimer's dementia, along with his father's diabetes and his father-in-law's heart disease, kidney disease, and gout. During Norris' twelve-year caregiving journey, Norris was a husband, son, and father of two teenagers soon to graduate from high school and on their way to college. In an instant, Norris was a member of the Sandwiched Generation. Sandwiched Generation is the population of middle-aged adults ages forty to fifty-nine providing care and financial support to a parent age sixty-five or older and providing care and financial support to their children. Norris shares his story using: inspirational quotes, song facts, flashbacks before the caregiving journey, and stories of his caregiving journey. Norris concludes each chapter with Bible scriptures and prayers from his heart. This book is about the caregiving experiences Norris had with my mother's suffering from Alzheimer's disease. It is vital to acknowledge my father's health was also in decline because of his diabetes, and it became impossible for Daddy to take care of Mama. At this time, my father-in-law, Jesse, moved into my home shortly after my mother-in-law died, and he suffered from heart disease, which required significant support. During this period, Norris was their go-to caregiver. It is surprising how Norris survived being a husband, father, educator, and caregiver. This book outlined in detail the solutions Norris found to these life challenges.Norris was the one person in the family Mama didn't fight, and Norris was the only family member who could calm her down when she was having an anxiety attack. Mama lost the ability to remember in the context of the here and now. The symptoms she experienced were disturbing and challenging. Norris was overwhelmed and distraught with Mama's loss of cherished memories and self-awareness for brief periods. Knowing this was happening to my dear mother caused me to feel anxious, powerless, and afraid.Norris cried a lot and often wondered, Would this be his fate as he aged?I was devastated to know for the rest of Mama's life, she would gradually lose her ability to remember. As the neuron paths slowly closed, Mama's failing capacity to connect experiences, learned facts, skills, relationships with others, and herself made life difficult for everyone around her.Alzheimer's disease is the only form of dementia that takes away memories. The affliction creates a tremendous void for the sufferer and loved ones. My Daddy, Norris Sr., and Norris did our best to fill the empty space Alzheimer's disease left with unconditional love and hope.
