The backstory here: the state government in Arkansas is now totally controlled by Republicans. You don't get a top position at UAMS, e.g., chancellor, unless you've shown Republican leaders that you're happy to bow to their leadership and work with them. Only Republican-leaning top administrators need apply.
And those top administrators rake in huge, huge salaries and benefits, as low-level workers are sued for $100 debts.

As CNN reports, Arkansas' flagship university med school hospital UAMS has been on an orgy of filing lawsuits — numbers rose from 35 lawsuits in 2016 to more than 3,000 in 2021 — to recover payments owed for medical services, some as little as $100. Those sued include UAMS employees who worked during the Covid pandemic and were then called "heroes" by UAMS.

Marcus Hutchins at Malwaretech posted about a new "feature" of Chrome that reports to 3rd parties what websites you visit.
This means YOUR CLIENTS can have the URLs of your TELEHEALTH system reported to 3rd parties.
So -- for example, if you use Psychology Today for telehealth, they will know the client is seeing a mental health professional. If you use Zoom, they will LIKELY just know the client went on a Zoom call -- but then you have a unique Zoom URL link, so its possible someone will bother to catalogue that your particular Zoom link is medical. So, again, same problem.
This is not a HIPAA problem under your control, but perhaps some client education on browser privacy settings is in order?
https://infosec.exchange/@malwaretech/111019619190896517
For people who for some reason still want to use Chrome:
Settings > Privacy >Ad privacy, then just toggle everything off.

There is an unknown hazard of life coaching:
Half your friends are life coaches
And they have awesome offerings
And you want to take them all to support your friends
But you also know you have a tendency to be busy learning, learning, learning
So you can avoid doing, doing, doing your own work

"in red states like #Texas, #Oklahoma and #Tennessee, obstetricians — including highly skilled #doctors who specialize in handling complex and risky pregnancies — are leaving their practices...
The departures may result in new maternity care deserts...
The effects are particularly pronounced in rural areas...
Restrictive abortion laws, experts say, are making that problem much worse."

The #EmergencyDepartment waiting room is a critical environment.
It has well-known dynamics which, if not controlled and managed, can lead to verbal and physical violence towards #nurses #doctors and other #healthcare workers.
I always loved the idea of a #nurse in the waiting room with specific functions (not just information and caring), and I loved reading about the Clinical Initiative Nurse https://aci.health.nsw.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0008/273545/nsw-health-cin-role-description.pdf

This Labor Day weekend, break your addiction to multitasking.
“This explains the attraction of multitasking: It offers the false promise that we might somehow slip the bonds of our finitude. We tell ourselves that with sufficient self-discipline, plus the right time-management tricks, we might finally get on top of everything and feel good about ourselves at last. ”

Yesterday I taught in two #BLSD courses for #nursing students at their final year before graduating.
They cared about the topic, they asked pertinent questions, they were curious and demonstraded good knowledge and nearly perfect techniques.
Sadly I don't always see this positive attitude during the recertification courses for my fellow #nurses, #doctors and other #healtcare operators.
Eveyone should take example from this new generation of professionals. May their enthusiasm never fade!
