“My first mistake was talking instead of listening. I should have slowed down. I should have given them the time and space to explain their thought process. I should have given myself the time to empathize with their perspective.”

What I got wrong 33 years ago as a new pediatrician talking to parents about vaccines
Thirty-three years ago, as a new pediatrician, RWJ CEO Richard Besser had a conversation about vaccines with two parents-to-be. It still sticks with him.

Nurses play a critical role in connecting patients and providers. During COVID, nurses
were the ones who spoke with the families AND physicians.

Nurses are people you can talk to. Healthcare providers talk to them in medical terms.
Patients and families talk to them in practical terms. Nurses are critical to collaborative
healthcare…and they are good at it too!

So the other side of the argument comes from the engaged #patient perspective.

Maybe the risk is outweighed by the benefit for some patients (in uploading some #PHI into a #GenAI tool).

Reasonable minds may differ.

So, here we see that @TechCrunch has joined the ranks of paternalists who think they know my priorities better than I do.

Eat me, @techcrunch.com ... and have a peek at PatientsUseAI.substack.com

Btw have any of you ever been sick and wanted to understand what's going on?

I was thrilled to represent the Society for Participatory Medicine @s4pm.bsky.social at the December @everylifeorg.bsky.social Community Congress.

In return for some help with the travel costs, I wrote a short blog. Did you you know SPM offers travel awards to their members?
