This morning, the office of Universal Healthcare Consulting visited Costco to shop for items to donate to our family on the West Coast of Florida.

We feel lucky to not have been affected, unlike many others who are now displaced. At times like this, the entire community needs to come together. UHC is proud to be able to donate diapers, tampons, laundry detergent, dog food, and so many more items for those in need and currently displaced. Thank you to Boca Surf And Sail, Lingua Franca, and Modern HD for organizing this drive and delivering the items to those in need!

The Covid-19 pandemic changed healthcare. We saw clinic closures, overflowing emergency rooms, disruptions to routine care, doctor shortages, and the entire industry stretched thin. This, combined with social distancing and lockdowns, drove a sudden mass adoption of telehealth, while also highlighting weaknesses in the system.

It is safe to say that the widespread acceptance of telehealth has since been established and that it is now seen broadly as a viable option for care. However, there are gaps in what the most basic version of telehealth can provide when it comes to diagnostics, data security, and accessibility. According to a recent Prosper Insights & Analytics Survey, over 36% of adults have used a telemedicine service during the Covid-19 pandemic. Read more on Forbes below!

If you doubt the contention that it can take years — or even decades — for evidence to trickle into clinical practice, look no further than the lack of progress in implementing simple precautions to prevent avoidable staff injuries from needles, scalpels, syringes, and other sharp surgical instruments.

An estimated 385,000 hospital workers in the U.S. suffer a sharps injury each year and nearly half of the incidents take place in operating rooms, making them the leading clinical area in which the injuries occur, says Renae Wright, DNP, RN, CNOR, perioperative practice specialist with the Association of periOperative Registered Nurses (AORN). Sharps injuries are believed to take place in as many as 15% of surgeries. One 2019 review concluded that surgeons suffered a sharps injury in one of every 10 operations. Dr. Wright says 64% of the injuries are estimated to be preventable and that as many as 90% of them go unreported. “We haven’t seen a whole lot of improvement in this area,” she adds. See more below on your sharps injury prevention playbook below from Adam Taylor.
