  • Don't Blame The Victim: 4 Myths of Clinician Self-Care

    Don't Blame The Victim: 4 Myths of Clinician Self-Care
    May 16 2024

    The term self-care has a bad rap lately. It can seem like healthcare organizations use terms like "self-care" and "resilience" to make their doctors, nurses, and other healthcare practitioners work harder and harder. They offer free yoga, while piling on more and more work!

    There is truth to this scenario, yet pushing away the concepts of self-care is not the solution.

    This week we cover 4 myths of clinician self-care. This episode is appropriate if you are a physician, nurse, nurse practitioner, physician assistant/associate, chaplain, social worker, therapist, physical therapist, occupational therapist, or other person who cares for seriously ill or aging people.

    Caring for you is a key part of caring for your patients!

  • How to Handle it When Your Patient is Crying

    How to Handle it When Your Patient is Crying
    May 10 2024

    Many clinicians, especially physicians, don't learn in school what to do when a patient is crying. When we don't know what to do we feel uncomfortable, and no one likes to feel uncomfortable.

    I've seen many physicians sit in the presence of a crying patient, continue to work on their computer, or awkwardly shift in their seat. This gives the patient the message that their tears and feelings aren't welcome.

    This week we talk about what to do when your patient starts crying.

    I'm glad you're here,

  • Joyful Palliative Care

    Joyful Palliative Care
    May 3 2024

    Is Joyful Palliative Care possible? Palliative care clinicians are often kind and highly empathetic people, but uncontrolled caring can lead to compassion fatigue or even burnout.

    Yet approaching the care of seriously ill people with an intentional approach can indeed make palliative care joyful.

    Here are the steps:

    1. More tools to relieve your patients' suffering (integrative symptom management)
    2. Develop your healing presence
    3. Know yourself
    4. Become a heart-centered leader
    5. Fill your cup

    I'm offering a Joyful Palliative Care program for clinicians who take care of people with cancer, dementia, neurologic disease, and other serious illness. If this podcast episode sparks something in you, come join us.

    Get on the Joyful Palliative Care waiting list so you'll be the first to know when the program starts. Also, people who join the program from the waiting list will get a discount or bonus.

A great introduction to integrative medicine

This is a great resource for both doctors and patients interested in integrative medicine. The episodes are easily digestable and action oriented so that each week you can take a step towards greater well-being. It is clear that Delia speaks with great care and knowledge as to what aspects of our health care system could use improvement but also giving credit to the aspects that are working well. It is refreshing to listen to such a balanced perspective.
