And this too… the little red book - Why We Revolt - now in Greek (does this make it a “classic”? ;-)). A labor of love, of careful and kind care, by my friend and brilliant colleague Prof. Apostolos Tsapas and his friends Http://patientrevolution.org/book

This is why we need a patient revolution. Healthcare is sick and we all need to demand reform. We need more caring and slower care. Please support
@patientrevolution.org
and its efforts to reform industrialized healthcare.

Caregivers unite! Against cruelty and the cruel exclusion of any persons from care. Fear bites your tongue until you learn that you have no voice. Caregivers speak up for your patients! Let’s find our collective courage and stand up for care.

At a time of cruelty towards those who show up to give and receive care, the professional duty of healthcare professionals is to stand for careful and kind care for all. How might our organizations - associations, boards, unions- see beyond self interest and lead care activism we urgently need?

Genuinely beautiful mass political movements start from and continue to prioritize the smallest scale of daily life. They begin with our own practices of self, of friendship, of interpersonal care, and of creativity. Don't dismiss or neglect the value of the small and the slow.

This is an important article for anyone in the business of supporting people making decisions. When considering alternative courses of action, people often start by laying out the options. Then, they review the pros/cons of each one. Think the famous scene in The Matrix (blue or red pill bit).

Until we are all aware of this crisis, nothing will change. Pay attention and speak up. Industrialized healthcare does not lead to careful and kind care (which are both needed to have any meaningful healthcare). Consider following

Because an ICD is so effective in treating sudden cardiac arrest, patients are more likely to die from other non-heart related causes, but their deaths can often be needlessly painful.

Implantable cardiac defibrillator shocks vs. “careful and kind” end-of-life care
Study: Even among patients with a Do-Not-Resuscitate order, over half had their implanted cardiac defibrillators programmed “ON” in the final hour of life. How can this be happening?

I find AI vs clinician studies very preliminary but also as furthering the need for > investment in clinician competence and wellbeing. And yet > $$ go to AI. I call this The Big Yellow Taxi (…paved paradise to put up a parking lot 🎶) Paradox. Remember: Only people can care.

The Book — The Patient Revolution
Why We Revolt describes what is wrong with industrial healthcare, how it has corrupted its mission, and how it has stopped caring.

Healthcare is an investment in human flourishing made possible because a person notices and responds to suffering with competence and compassion. Instead we get industrial processing. This is WhyWeRevolt

In 2015 I started writing Why We Revolt. It came out in 2017 (with a second edition in 2020). That little red book did better than I could ever dream. I am now going to find out if my contained multitudes can write (and my friends read, react, and edit) another book. Wish me tenacity.
