The above review summarizes things well.

New in @JAMANetworkOpen: Urinary catheter safety practices have improved over 20 years - but important gaps remain.

Appreciate the great team at @umichmedicine @UM_IHPI @VAAnnArbor

@APIC

[U-M IHPI @UM_IHPI]

Many hospitals still aren't taking key steps to prevent UTIs and other infections from urinary catheters, despite decades of #PatientSafety efforts, a new study from our members in @JAMANetworkOpen finds: https://t.co/2axJjbnczr

Thank you to the @NorthwellHealth community for such a warm welcome & tremendous support during my first few days leading internal medicine here. I’m grateful to join so many dedicated colleagues committed to advancing patient care, #mentorship, #education and innovation.

[Northwell Medicine @Northwell_Med]

What an incredible evening with our faculty, leaders & staff at the Meet & Greet and Inaugural Leadership Address with @sanjaysaint! An inspiring discussion on patient care, investing in our people, mentorship, innovation & the future of #NorthwellHealth Medicine.

[Sanjay Saint @sanjaysaint]

We interviewed 15 notable physician mentors on how to mentor during crisis.

Themes: diversify funding, encourage strategic pivots, coach resilience, be candid, & actively open doors.

In a crisis, great mentoring isn’t different—it’s intensified.

Our new book - ‘Mentoring in Healthcare’ - was published today!

Loved working with @RuthGotian & @vineet_chopra on a resource for anyone in healthcare interested in becoming a more effective mentor or mentee.

Appreciate @vineet_chopra for leading this work! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[JGIM Journal of General Internal Medicine @JournalGIM]

Despite previous calls to increase GIM mentoring, new findings suggest it remains uncommon. When such relationships exist, physicians experience a stronger sense of autonomy, purpose, and wellbeing, with lower burnout risk. @sanjaysaint

Check out new study in @JAMANetworkOpen on what background patients prefer during #telehealth visits

An office w diplomas preferred the most

Home setting in the kitchen or bedroom in background preferred the least

Study expertly led by @nate_houchens
