Some EHRs are pretty good about this nowadays. Epic, for example, allows you to share info across health systems. The user has to enable it though, which is a problem due to low adoption among older patients.

Also, this will be less of a problem in coming years due to increasing consolidation of health systems.

I also struggle with insomnia. Most people who take melatonin don’t understand how it works. They pop it right before bed and expect it to make them tired. It doesn’t induce sleepiness per se. That’s probably more of a placebo effect if people are popping it at bedtime. I’d talk to a doc about a prescription option if you regularly struggle with sleep. Something like Trazadone is pretty safe and not addictive.

For tonight, just accept that tomorrow will be tough. You’ll survive it though.

Psychedelics plus psychotherapy can trigger rapid changes in the brain − new research at the level of neurons is untangling how (theconversation.com)

The human brain can change – but usually only slowly and with great effort, such as when learning a new sport or foreign language, or recovering from a stroke. Learning new skills correlates with changes in the brain, as evidenced by neuroscience research with animals and functional brain scans in people. Presumably, if you...

Rural crime is pretty bad too. I’ve met literally like one person who was randomly attacked on the streets in Philly. The vast majority of crime is people killing people they know.

TIL homicide is the only crime that exists

Even if we’re talking about violent crime (which, itself is a minority of crime), homicide doesn’t even make up a majority or plurality

New UN migration chief says private sector 'desperate' to take migrants despite negative narrative (apnews.com)

Always thought the Krug/Kruger parallel was interesting. I feel like I read a rumor once that someone named Krug or Kruger was a childhood bully of Craven’s, but either way, he had a thing for that name

2023 was the year the US finally destroyed all of its chemical weapons (www.vox.com)

The United States’s Chemical Warfare Service readied hundreds of thousands of mortar shells and artillery rounds filled with mustard gas in the 1940s. During the Cold War, even more lethal chemical weapons followed: artillery and rockets filled with VX and GB, better known as Sarin, nerve agents that, with as little as a few...

At least in my state, mental health group homes vary widely by supervision level. Some allow you to come and go like it’s a private home, others are under lock and key.

CHILLICOTHE, Ohio — A recent incident at Adena Health System has intensified scrutiny of its cardiology department.

Further concerns have arisen regarding Dr. Rehman. Separate allegations made by colleagues indicate that he and another physician, Dr. Matos Cruz, were observed watching YouTube videos on medical procedures they were unfamiliar with. One patient reportedly died after such a procedure, while another had to undergo three additional procedures at Ohio State University, according to families connected to the procedures.

Jesus… just own up if you don’t feel comfortable doing a procedure

Per the article, that’s two so far (only one from NJ), plus the governor of NJ.

I was shocked when he got re-elected after the last charges, but these are far more serious allegations. Time for him to go
