"Victory—Healthcare-The Financial Debacle"

Episode Description
This week on Capital Thinking we talk to Benjamin Chew and Michael Guiffré about their recent victory in a complex fraud case involving a minority-owned information management company that suffered a substantial loss when two former employees defrauded the company and usurped a U.S. Census Bureau contract worth over $5 million. Then we return to the rollicking healthcare debate. What does the delay in Congress mean for patients, providers and companies based outside the Beltway? John Jonas has the answers. Micah Green has repeatedly explained the impact of the financial debacle. Now he comes on to discuss how the mortgage mess has bred an unlikely alliance between housing activists and mortgage investors to help homeowners avert foreclosure. This phenomenon was featured in the Wall Street Journal this week.

BMC Racing Team's Greg Van Avermaet avoided a pile-up at the finish Monday at the Tour de Wallonie on the way to 10th place while teammate Steve Morabito was not as fortunate.
Van Avermaet Headed To London
Morabito said he was simply trying to stay in the bunch when riders went down in front of him. The runner-up at the Tour of Austria took a tumble but was not seriously hurt. Van Avermaet, who will not start the final two stages because of his Olympic team commitments, said he was lucky. "I was in good position but I couldn't sprint," he said. "I was fortunate I was on the right side because the crash happened on the left. I'm feeling really good heading to London. I was riding well in Poland and these three days of racing were good training. Now I'll rest for four days." Giacomo Nizzolo (Radioshack-Nissan) took the stage win and the overall lead. Morabito said he was doubly disappointed, having been in a promising breakaway inside the final 15 kilometers of the 185.9 km race. "It was a good group and I really tried to give everything but not everyone was working," he said. "It was really a pity because I was going not for the stage, but for the general classification."

Years ago, we were taught how to use a thing called a map. Today, if you have navigation on your phone, "she" talks to you. You type in where you want to go and eventually "she" gives you directions on how to get to your destination. Have you experienced the moment when "she" tells you to "at the next left, make a U-turn"? "She" doesn't talk back, "she" just keeps telling you what to do to go where you're trying to get.
There is another tool that's available to help us navigate our everyday lives. When you open this tool, "He" speaks in a way that gives us directions to find our way through the challenges of our life.
You and I are used to traveling, going where we want. Too many times, though, we think we know the right way. Too many turns later, we find ourselves at the wrong place, the bad side of life, or the place where people get hurt.
When "He" gives us directions, sometimes we're not sure about where He's leading us. One thing is sure — "He" always leads us to the right place, the good side of life, and the place where people find healing and hope.
How can we hear what "He" is telling us? First, we have to want to hear. Second, go to the Smart Book, God's Word. Third, when "He" speaks through the Smart Book, follow his directions. You may think you're going in a different direction, and you would be right. Keep listening and "He" will guide your life travels to better life places.

Dehydrated: 12 hours of Hell
25 patients to one Nurse. That Nurse was me. My only help was an agency carer with no experience who could not do any lifting due to a back problem. Yeah. WTF. I complained to the supervisor of the hospital. When he informed me of the even worse staffing situation on other wards (worse!) I realised I was in for a long shift. This was the staffing for 12 hours. For the last hour I was alone. And compared to other wards I was damn lucky I only had 25 beds and less overall acuity.
Two cardiac arrests. Mostly down to failure to rescue. I caught the first one as he was deteriorating just by luck I had a gut feeling to check in on him again. Now he wasn't talking. I fast paged the senior medics. I didn't think he would arrest quite yet but I like to prepare for the worst. I was alone with an agency carer with no experience. When I realised we might have an arrest I told the carer that we might and asked him a few questions to prepare.
Me: Do you know how to put the arrest call out?
Carer: No. What is that?
Me: "Do you know how to do CPR" ( I could run to the phone and put the arrest call out if he could start the cpr)
Carer: "No"
Me: "If I yell the word CRASH you run your ass to the phone and dial xxx. Then you say "Doe Ward". You have 5 seconds to do it, don't fuck up.
Thank goodness the registrar was up there 30 seconds later, and then the patient really really deteriorated. I am so lucky I caught onto it when I did rather than just finding a corpse in that bed. I only got a chance to check back in on him by abandoning the turns, toileting round, and leaving people covered in shit. I just got a feeling in my gut and heard a little voice telling me to watch him. By the way,why does the 85 plus crowd play in poo and facepaint with it? I guess if I ever see 85 I will find out. It's not always the confused and dementia patients who do this either.
Two people fell out of bed whilst I was dealing with the crash. They were , of course, left on the floor. Thankfully they didn't get hurt.And another one arrested. That one was an expected death but a DNAR was never signed so we needed to attempt resus. It failed. But the first guy ended up in ITU.
People were extremely dehydrated. I didn't get a drink or a scrap of food for 12 hours either so I was empathetic. But even so, I still couldn't get around to them all and do anything about it. God help them, the oncoming shift staffing was terrible as well. At least I can get home at the end of the day and have a coffee.
So many people do not get the drugs they need and are prescribed. This was even the case on the shift preceding mine. Either the drugs are not there or the patient has some kind of problem that we cannot work around in the way that we need to in order to give the drug. It's not as if we say "oh yeah, I am just not going to bother with that".
Rang switchboard after I handed over and demanded that the chief executive get called (at home if necessary) and ring me back immediately. I was half out of my mind at this point.
Do you think he called me?
Yeah right.
Day off today. Mr. Militant Medical Nurse is doing the cooking and the cleaning and nursing the nurse.

Dehydrated? Did the 25 odd patients has a saline drip?
- 6 March 2010 04:22
- Julie said...
I wonder if it's time to fess up with relatives and tell them to come in at meal times to feed the patient. Wouldn't that be better than pretending that you're coping? In Italy, this is what happens and the relatives also provide the food. Just an idea; I'm doing this with a relative of mine at the mo. What do you think?
- 6 March 2010 06:21
- Nurse Anne said...
Sure. Saline drips run out. Can't put another one up without a prescription.
Of course you can ask or tell the docs to come but it takes hours and hours. A lot of these people have terrible veins as well.
- 6 March 2010 07:17

Confused patients also pull out drips 25 or 30 times an hour. Unless you can stay with them at all times to prevent this, you are screwed.

Jesus Anne - 1 trained and 1 HCA for 25 patients? Stop it stop it stop it. Blow whistles, leave before it's all your fault. That is insane.The Chief Exec must be informed, via a very public media - ring him/her, invite them to come and see how shit it is, threaten to go to the papers - mention Panorama and that should do it. You will be the one facing the "fitness to practice " hearing, not the managers.Jeez I feel for you.

Nurse Rachet The Lad I WAS WORKING WITH WASN'T EVEN TO THE LEVEL OF AN HCA. He could not do observations, fluid balance charts or BM's. And he refused to lift due to his "bad back".

Your Trust sounds like a sh** place to work. Then go to the union and the local rag and state your reasons for leaving. Encourage relatives to put complaints in writing about lack of trained nurses, citing the Patients Charter. Ask them to send a copy to whoever your local MP is.
I understand your frustration only too well. Our Chief exec is another buttwipe who is only interested in covering their ass. They have no clinical background and care little about anything other than government targets and keeping foundation status. We have had two consultants resign recently and the Trust lawyers have gagged them good and proper. One is ready to retire so is taking the brave step of going to the press anyway. The other has another 20 years to go so is not feeling quite so brave. I'm thinking about taking early retirement. The NHS sucks.

I wonder if I should just go to a nursing home to hold me over before we move. The pay is shite but so much less hassle. I do like the elderly when I can take care of them properly. No acute patients, just send them out to hospital.............
- 7 March 2010 12:02
It's time to go. I'm with Nurse Ratchet and DinoNurse. Get out before something really bad happens and you end up taking the fall for it. You work for bad people. That is obvious. Any job is better than this one. And go to the press. Got to your elected officials. Get your documentation together and go way public. Talk to an American press organization, too. It's time for the NHS to be globally shamed. But first, GET OUT!

I don't admire your acuity but your ratios are a little better.
The next hospital is an hour or two away and worse. It is also an NHS hospital. So no change. If you knew what the price of gas here was you would not tell me to commute.
No private hospitals in the area. The doctors offices in the community are all NHS as well and there are no jobs/vacancies.
I am thinking about applying to a Nursing home but the pay is so bad there I will have trouble paying my mortgage.

The series of wavy lines in an ECG report represent the recordings of an ECG machine that reads heart beats and prints them out on a special pressure sensitive paper. These readings are the tools for diagnosing abnormalities in the heart.

TRAINING: I train five days per week, twice per day, and have Thursday and Sunday off. I do my conditioning in the morning and my striking, wrestling and BJJ at night. After each session I eat and sleep and that's about it.
Thoughts on opponent, Guto Inocente? I don't know too much about him. He's young, athletic, a good kickboxer and has some BJJ skills too.

During the Euharlee City Council's work session, Mayor Dennis Thayer brought a revised organization chart for city employees to the council's attention. The only change, he said, was the inclusion of the court clerk, which had been omitted from the previous proposed chart.
Council member Steve Worthington then stated he did not support the idea of department heads reporting to the city manager rather than the city council.
"Maybe, and you're right, that slipped through when we redone our charter. I don't know how I missed it, because I would never have [voted] with that being put back in our city charter like that," Worthington said. "They've done a great job, but that slipped by me. My problem, my argument, is that I do not understand why and everybody's where they belong at, and we spend hours interviewing candidates for different department heads to make sure we get the right person to manage that particular department and you've got somebody standing over their shoulder, going micromanage the person we hired.
"If you going to let whoever
micromanage it, why go through all the [work] and put somebody in there because they're going to be micromanaged anyway?"
Council member Craig Guyton pointed out the city manager does not operate each department on such a level of detail.
"The city manager's position, as I would see it, would be to make sure, help the teamwork atmosphere so these departments get along together to get everything done for the city. ... But as it functions inside of the entire city, our city manager manages our city as a whole. ... But it's got to be running in the same direction," Guyton said.
Worthington responded, saying city employees' morale had dropped.
"Oh, I know about the same direction. ... I've seen this city right here, in this city of Euharlee, employees' morale went from where it was the epitome of anybody — every city and municipality in the county of Bartow was envious of the way it run," Worthington said. "Now it's at an all-time low and a laughingstock."
"Currently?" Guyton asked.
Thayer stated that if the council was going to have a discussion about personnel, an open forum was not the circumstance to have such a discussion. Worthington disagreed, saying the people in attendance needed to know what was going on inside of the city.
Thayer stated a policy needed to be put in place to allow employees to air grievances.
"Now, we need to have a policy in place that if there is issues, [if] employees have issues that they have an established way, a grievance process for those issues. ... I think everybody's in agreement with that. That's just not done yet. That's the next step to be done," he said.
City Manager Trish Sullivan said she was working on a grievance policy, but it was not yet complete.
Council member Joseph Turner later took the opportunity to remark on some thoughts that had been on his mind since the beginning of the year.
"If you all remember on ... whatever our first meeting this year was, I came in here and sit down and the first thing I seen on a stack of papers was something somebody had went off the Internet and published, starting off with a description of an old city that called their mayor Bubba and the last four lines of the paragraph ... anyway, it basically said, 'Welcome to Toiletville USA,'" Turner said.
Sullivan said she did not know where the document came from. Thayer said he did.
"I know exactly where it came from. I'm the one that printed it off and it was a comparison from an organization out there that gave examples of good cities and bad cities," he said.
"That's beside the point," Turner later said in the work session. "I considered it highly improper. It was an insult to me. Now maybe it wasn't the way it was meant to come across, because most of our employees have been here for an extended amount of time. ... This city is not broke, and I don't mean that in money-wise. ... The attitude that it appeared to me the way I took this was this city was just so screwed up, the employees was so incompetent, everything had to be fixed and changed by somebody's personal idea of what they'd like to see.
"... We have done an excellent job with this city over the years and all of these things that have been thrown out here this first month of being here is like we've all been incompetent. Even the employees have been insulted if that's what the attitude was. That's what got my buttons pushed."
Thayer responded.
"If you're done, I'll comment on it. This has all been directed at me, but you don't look at me. ... First of all, you didn't read the document. The document was a comparison of some of the things that make good quality cities and some of the things that make poor quality cities," Thayer said. "It had no ... correlation to the city of Euharlee at all. It was just things that look good and things that don't look good, and it comes back to the whole point that the rating the city of Euharlee is an 'F' on amenities.
"This is a great place, we all love living here, but if you think for a second there's not things that can be improved on or things that don't need to be fixed, you need to pull your head out of the sand. All right?"
Thayer cited the organizational structure of the city as one example of what needed to be fixed. He said it was unclear who employees are supposed to report to. Turner said he has never had a city employee say they did not know they reported to the city manager on a day-to-day basis. Thayer said he had.
Following the debate and discussion on organization, the council turned toward having what the agenda named "Food Truck Fridays," a program intended to invite food trucks into downtown Euharlee with accompanying live music. Thayer suggested the council allow for three Fridays over three months to allow the program the chance to bring people to downtown Euharlee. Though the council discussed how the food trucks would be permitted to sell food in the city — whether it was through purchasing a temporary or annual permit — the entire council indicated it supported the idea.
"I think the idea is to get people to come out downtown and mingle," said council member Ronald Nesbitt.
While discussing the city's proposed mission statement, the council decided to hold two town hall meetings on the subject. The meetings are scheduled for March 13 at 7 p.m. and March 22 at 9 a.m., with locations to be announced. The proposed strategic plan for the city will likely be discussed during the meetings as well.
In other business, the council:
• was updated on the adoption of international building codes.
• tabled discussion of the proposed city strategic plan.
• had the first reading of a new purchasing policy and procedure.
The next Euharlee City Council meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, March 4, at 7 p.m. at city hall.

Don't know how many deer will be there this year, I'll start rinning trail camera's in a couple of weeks. These fires really get me down (lungs), I think I need to move somewhere where the entire state doesn't burn down on a yearly basis. On a brighter note just ordered some strings from Hutch for the Bengal, they sould be the Cat's Meow.

Back from my trip, and already looking forward to October (next time I go up)
Alas, the weather was spiteful, and we were not able to hike Washington (rained some almost everyday).
First day out we hiked up Iron Mountain, to make sure we were all healthy. We were Fun hike. Second day out we did Arethusa Falls, which we've driven by several times, but just never found time to hike it. Lovely views. A good number of people were there, some decided to wade. I didn't, ha.
When we realized that we would not get "the big one," due to taunting weather, we decided to look to the other 4000'ers. I admit, there was a part of me hoping this was the case, I missed being able to get any last fall.
We thought Eisenhower would be an excellent choice, and we were right! We hiked up in fog, it was other worldly, and reminded me of the first time I hiked Washington. We could see the trail, but nothing else. Many checks were made on the radar (I was hiking with my former meteorology classmates, in addition to my boyfriend...the only non-wx nut in the group). The summit was great, very windy and still the fog. After lunch, the fog started to lift, and we got to see where we hiked. Amazing. We were about to start our hike back, when another group showed up. They were very jubilant and their enthusiasm was catching. The fog continued to lift, and it was like getting two different mountains in one hike. This was 4000'er #12 for me and the boyfriend.
The following day we walked around the pond path near the Highland Center, finally visited the Willey House and fed some brave ducks. Fun, relaxing day.
But our hiking was not over yet! Mount Pierce was next on out agenda. The hike up was enjoyable, though the wet rocks tried to trip me up. (spoiler: they succeeded on the way down.) We pasted a few groups, all were in good spirits (well, except one baby, but I bet she/he wanted to get down and crawl. I would). The bugs were vicious at the summit, we were hoping for the winds we had on Eisenhower. We stopped at Mizpah on the way down. Best blueberry cake I have ever had. Hunger may have been a factor there. Rest of the hike down was great, and #13 was done!
So, while it was a but of a bummer we didn't get Washington, I was more than happy to get 5 days of hiking and two new 4000'ers.
And to go back to Moat Mountain...
Pics to follow once I stop being lazy and get them off the camera.

The Tour of Qatar and Tour of Oman both take place on the Arabian Peninsula, but each presents a different challenge for the BMC Racing Team, says Directeur Sportif John Lelangue.
Wind Always A Factor
New to the Tour of Qatar is a two-kilometer individual prologue. "Qatar always has a big selection on the road due to the wind with pretty fast stages," Lelangue said. "Oman is totally different because there is a six-kilometer climb to the finish on one stage and a long time trial (18.5 km)," he said. "So we know time gaps will not only come from splitting the peloton and bonifications, but also from those two stages." Sprinter Alexander Kristoff said he has recovered from a nasty crash at the Santos Tour Down Under. "I expect to have better form than I did in Australia," he said. "I hope some days I can make the first split in the crosswinds and then sprint for a stage victory."
BMC Racing Team Tour of Qatar Roster (Feb. 6-11):
Marcus Burghardt (GER), Alexander Kristoff (NOR), Karsten Kroon (NED), John Murphy (USA), Manuel Quinziato (ITA), Michael Schär (SUI), Greg Van Avermaet (BEL), Danilo Wyss (SUI).
Directeur Sportif:
John Lelangue (BEL)
Doctor: Scott Major (USA). Mechanics: Ronald Ruymen (BEL), Nick Vandecauter (BEL). Soigneurs: Freddy Viaene (BEL), Trudi Rebsamen (USA), Stefano Rubino (ITA).
