While the New Year may seem like the completely wrong time to discuss burnout, it’s actually more important than ever.  Why? 

Because 2024 is just going to be another 2023…unless you do something about it.

In our fast-paced world of healthcare, the demand for exceptional patient care often comes at a cost – the risk of burnout among healthcare professionals.

In a recent enlightening episode on TheOncoPT Podcast, I had the privilege of discussing this critical issue with the insightful Dr. Rebekah Griffith. We dove into what burnout really looks like (plus what is ISN’T), plus the importance of self-care, structured professional development planning, and the symbiotic relationship between personal and professional life.

More than EVER, I am convinced of this one thing:

We need more specialists in oncology physical therapy.  Not that we need more people taking that 7 hour exam - we need oncology patient care SPECIALISTS, because more patients than ever are diagnosed with cancer & require specialized care.  Run of the mill PT simply will not cut it.  PERIOD.

In this episode, we’re reflecting on the themes of the past year and the importance of specialization in oncology physical therapy. I’m sharing past patient experiences & exactly how that subpar care highlights the need for competent clinicians who can confidently and competently care for oncology patients.

They’re all about exercise!

Specifically, the updates clarify the requirements for pre-operative functional assessments & appropriate referrals to exercise programs & rehabilitation.

This is huge for so many reasons, but most especially to help expand patient access & pathways to appropriate exercise & rehab services.  

Today, Dr. Karen Wonders of Maple Tree Cancer Alliance is on the podcast to discuss what these new updates are & what exactly they mean for you.  Plus, we also talk about how you can leverage your expertise & facilitate this process for your community - aka become the go-to pro as these updates are implemented.

As you know, collaboration is the name of the game in cancer rehab.

While PT, OT, & speech therapy instantly come to mind, there’s actually quite a few more disciplines we’re not including in this collaboration.  

Including oncology acupuncture ⬇️

Oncology acupuncture has been around for a while, & many of your patients already use acupuncture to help with various treatment side effects.

So you better get clear on what it does, who it’s for, & how it helps your patients!

Mari Galle is the Director of Integrative Medicine & an oncology acupuncturist at Cancer Rehab & Integrative Medicine in Austin, Texas.  In today’s interview, she takes you behind the scenes of what acupuncture is & how it helps oncology patients.  Plus, she gives concrete examples of how cancer rehab & oncology acupuncture work together to better serve our patients.

Rehab is NOT well-integrated into advanced cancer care.  But these patients need rehab EVEN MORE than many patients with early-stage cancer.

November is Hospice & Palliative Care Month, so this is the perfect time to talk about a patient population very near & dear to my heart.

Health care is sick.  

Obviously, we’re no strangers to illness.  But health care as an industry, as a profession, as a vocation is sick.  

& will continue to get worse unless we implement real solutions.

We’ve already seen other industries implement these solutions, & they’re working.  It’s time to make it happen for real in health care.

Joe Sanok is a licensed professional counselor & psychologist, thyroid cancer survivor, & author of Thursday is the New Friday.  In today’s conversation, we really get into just how broken American health care is, but it doesn’t stop there.  We actually get into real strategies you can implement at your own work place to truly start fixing our broken system, to better help our patients.  

You’ll learn:

• Ways to better structure your work week for you, your patient, & *your boss*
• How to use your time most efficiently to get allllll your tasks done
• How automation helps your practice & ways to implement automation in OncoPT 

Tune in ASAP for this practice-changing conversation.
