Hello and welcome to the 100th episode of the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast!

I'm your host, Dr. Sarah Smith, and today we're celebrating this milestone with a deep dive into sustainable practices that can transform your clinical day. We’ll explore strategies for effectively onboarding clinical staff and discuss how facilitating chart audits has improved the standard of care. We'll address the challenges of dealing with uncertainty in medical practice, such as unpredictable patient schedules and medication side effects, and highlight the invaluable role of relational continuity in primary care with its numerous benefits.

In this episode, I’ll share insights on managing patient access and follow-up when there's high demand and limited supply of family physicians, leveraging team resources, and innovative solutions to reduce clinician burnout. Plus, I'll discuss the importance of building a strong "medical neighbourhood," incorporating the expertise of social workers and pharmacists to enhance patient care.

Join me as I reflect on my personal journey since 2017, including my recent relocation back to Australia, and how coaching can lead to a balanced clinical life. We will also talk about our successful programs, Charting Champions and Smarter Charting, designed to support healthcare professionals in creating sustainable workdays.
