Leading with care: a new approach to health care leadership for well-being [PODCAST]
Internal medicine and infectious disease physician and author Joshua D. Hartzell discusses his article "Leading with care: How health care leadership can transform patient and provider well-being." He addresses the crisis of burnout and attrition in health care, arguing that leaders often fail to extend the same level of care to their teams as they do to patients. Joshua introduces "caring-inspired leadership," an evidence-based approach where every leadership action centers on caring for the team to improve both provider well-being and patient care. He outlines key strategies: leaders must prioritize their own well-being by setting boundaries and taking vacations to avoid burnout, which impacts leadership effectiveness; they should actively support their team's well-being by fostering a culture where self-care is expected and possible, offering flexibility and support systems; investing in professional development through mentoring and sponsorship is crucial; and leaders must cultivate a habit of expressing specific gratitude to make staff feel valued. Joshua urges leaders to adopt these practices to build compassionate, excellent cultures in medicine.
A surgeon's startling ketamine experience [PODCAST]
General surgeon Arthur Williams discusses his article "A surgeon's battle with ketamine-induced hallucinations." He shares an account from his novel of an experience needing a pacemaker for a "janky heart" prone to atrial fibrillation and bradycardia (sick sinus node), complicated by a low ejection fraction. Arthur vividly describes the anxiety and vulnerability of being a surgeon on the patient side of the gown, his candid and sometimes critical inner thoughts during interactions with the nursing staff and anesthesiologist, and the specific fear associated with the invasive procedure. He recounts the anesthesiologist's decision to use ketamine due to its less cardiodepressive effects, despite warning of potential "weird dreams." Arthur then details the profound and disorienting visual hallucinations—kaleidoscopes of fire, burning apparitions, and a sense of crossing the River Styx—that occurred after the ketamine was administered, offering a raw look at the potential side effects of anesthesia from a physician's unique vantage point.
