" Why (not) me? " Why doctors do it differently......
In this study, almost 90% of surveyed physicians, presumably healthy, would forego resuscitation efforts for themselves. In our next #hpm chat , on Wednesday, April 20th, 2016, let ’s unpack this head-scratching situation together--not just for doctors, but for all of us…nurses, social workers, chaplains, program folks… that have reason to think differently about the nature of modern dying and our desired intensity of medical treatment. Topic 1: What do you think about those of us in healthcare, with knowledge about the limitations of modern medicine, choosing less of it? Topic ...

Sharing your personal health data? Don ’t be scared!
I recently had the opportunity to join Boston news media veteran, Dan Rea, on his AM radio program, Nightside with Dan Rea. It was a one-hour call-in program and an eye-opening experience for me. Dan and I chatted about connected health and how it can truly disrupt care delivery and put the individual at the center of their own health. Then Dan opened the lines to the fine citizens of New England for questions, and the phones started ringing off the hook.
The overwhelming concern — actual fear — among callers was maintaining their privacy in an increasingly connected world, especially their personal health data. I was ...

Death and dying: Do dogs have it better?
Today I saw a news story about Walnut, an 18-year-old whippet in the UK, who had his last “walk” on the beach with his owner who had asked social media followers to join them. Shortly after that walk, surrounded by hundreds of family, friends, and supporters (human and canine alike), Walnut was put down. His last moments were spent as near to Heaven on earth as his owner could create for him. The love for man’s best friend is almost palpable in the video.
As a veterinarian’s daughter and mom to 5 dogs, I hope I can show them all such compassion in their last days. I’ve lost many a pet along th...

Blog: Taking our pay campaign to our local communities, and to the streets
The budget is only a few weeks away, and that’s why UNISON’s Pay Up Now campaign has been ramping up the pressure on politicians to act.
In recent weeks we’ve secured the unanimous support of the TUC and the Labour Party for real and meaningful pay rises for all public sector workers. More than 125,000 people have signed our Parliamentary petition, meaning that MPs will now have to debate our call for real pay rises.
But we have to continue to make our voices head – and that means taking our campaign to our local communities, and to the streets. So over the next few weeks they’ll be rallies, demonstrations an...

Blog: Once again, our union is taking the fight to the government – and onto the streets
Over the past decade, public services have suffered under successive governments. Hundreds of thousands of jobs have been lost, services have had round after round of cuts and UNISON members have had to do more with less – both at work and in their pay packets.
Throughout this time, UNISON has consistently been the loudest voice for better public services – campaigning, protesting, lobbying and calling out for change.
Yet despite the softening of the rhetoric on austerity, and an easing of the pay cap, this government are still intent on damaging public services even further.
So once again, our union is taking ...

Blog: Listen to these moments of truth
Every day, we’re all reliant on public service workers. Whether it’s the school staff who educate our kids, the health inspectors who make sure our food is safe, the health workers who treat us when we’re sick or the police staff who help keep us safe – public service workers are everywhere, and our country couldn’t function without them.
Often unseen, often unheralded – it’s public servants like these who make our country tick.
And yet in recent years, they’ve found themselves under increasing pressure. Their jobs are at threat or lost as a result of government austerity. They’re constantly being asked t...

Blog: Together, we can step up for public services
This Saturday, our union and our movement will march.
We will raise our banners, balloons, flags as we demand the better public services our communities need. And we will raise our voices, to call for an end to cuts and austerity, an end to an attack on our jobs, our pay and our conditions. We will remember the struggles our union has faced over the past decade – struggles so many thought we would never overcome – and fight for a better future for UNISON members and everyone who relies on public services.
Recent years have been difficult for everyone working in public services, but I know that the passion of UNISON me...
