Thankfully Sharing

Appreciation for international peers shows up with more than words. Perhaps we extend a cultural competence partnership. Perhaps we share business. For some of us, collective advocacy for a collective healthier public messages this gratitude.

Though it feels good to work alongside one another, it should also feel good to rest alongside one another.

And today, restful and productive, I share words in my space.

This is my space, and I am thankful for you here.

Because you share your countries and worlds and space with me, I thank you.

Happy Thanksgiving, friends all over the world.

Oxygen

Keeping it simple for oxygen coordination is best accomplished when we're welcomed in. It’s good to support global leadership in medical oxygen supply management for underserved communities and countries in need. It’s great to support efforts that strengthen individual country leadership toward national strategies on medical oxygen supply management. Both require some tread into a country’s vulnerabilities on medical needs. Let’s tread meaningfully and in a way that assures a welcome back. Detail the coordinating agencies or government departments responsible for medical oxygen supply receipt. Meet with health administrators. Detail a country’s current policies, compare with a global review and detail opportunities for policies on oxygen management. Is medical oxygen supply and/or maintenance an ongoing regulatory component within a country? What would it take to sharpen regulatory efforts? Is medical oxygen supply a component to ongoing emergen...

Energy in healthcare, welcomed in

To assure adequate energy and electricity for healthcare worldwide, those assisting first need to be welcomed in. To assure energy reduction and efficiency in healthcare, those involved must feel welcomed at the table. Here are a few ways we can ask for a welcome, as well as welcome others in: *Structure international and national authorities to healthcare energy assurance. Assess for gaps at the table, including when partnerships develop for global assessments. [1} *Structure the assessments of energy in healthcare. How is adequacy measured? How does a community define if they have enough energy and how are the definitions of quality of care mismatched? *Assess current response. How are philanthropic and nonprofit partnerships defining, assessing and responding to lack of energy in healthcare [2,3,4,5]? Where are the disconnects and mismatches? *Assess for understanding of medical equipment and use within evidence-based guidelines. Where are these facilities in adopt...

The Right Direction

Roads Transportation barriers, and alternatives to transportation in healthcare, remain poorly understood. Given the sophistication in global citizenry and global policy, as well as the sophistication of climate science evolution, oversight of transportation in healthcare can be improved. Healthcare transportation oversight should improve with regard to one another’s place and space. *Ask countries how we can partner with transportation barrier epidemiology, with improved health outcomes as a shared ultimate goal. Emphasize the importance to transient, migrant or nomadic populations as well. *Be clear on finances and transportation with each geographical distinction. *Work toward cultural considerations, such preference for familiar or home care, or comfort and ease with community members or strangers. *Ask for population preference data in shared economy inclusion, and seek for data separate from a company’s self-report. *Ask countries to identify transportation burd...
