@DeptVetAffairs Your new records are just as junky as your old records if providers are still pencil whipping their way through them.

[Half-dead Fred @thatdamnedghost]

As a matter of fact, I did, bless their little hearts.

Gonna throw down a detailed thread on that particular cluster at a later time, but holy s***.
I learned my lesson. I'll never complain within that facility again.

They never did integrate those records properly, btw.

Same month:

The VA ran me out of a dopamine agonist (should never be stopped abruptly), then dispensed a 90-day supply of it, then dispensed a 90 day supply of bupropion.

That hospital's f****** dangerous.

My social worker was one of the providers that ghosted me (along with primary care, suicide prevention, and the office of Community Care) less than a month after their own SPC noted moderate acute/chronic high risk in my EHR.

That place is a joke.

@curmudgeonatlg Current pain management protocols in the United States, especially following surgery, are becoming inhumane

Another VA had documented me predicting I'd fall through the cracks when I got back to my facility.

And I was right.

@SecVetAffairs Your new medical records still won't be worth a damn if providers are pencil whipping them.

The clinical setting in which psychedelic treatment occurs can severely affect how that treatment is experienced. It can also alter the outcome.

Patients who perceive their environment or the treating providers as unsafe will not have a good time at all.

[A2 @burrito_capital]

@thatdamnedghost Last damn place I would want to do anything psychedelic is in the pit of snakes that the VA is

[Half-dead Fred @thatdamnedghost]

@burrito_capital I believe one of the justifications they gave for outsourcing it was that I considered the VA unsafe.

And then they managed to outsource it in the most unsafe way possible.

This wouldn't make me so nervous if the VA wasn't already mismanaging ketamine protocols for veterans with depression and PTSD.

Major VA study to examine effectiveness of psilocybin on depression, PTSD https://t.co/6JaYJ6p9Q7

[Half-dead Fred @thatdamnedghost]

The VA's undocumented order caused a sudden halt in regular ketamine infusions. Abrupt cessation causes evil side effects and should *never* happen...

But the lapse and it's effects weren't documented in my EHR. Neither was the December lapse the VA caused.

That's concealment.

[Half-dead Fred @thatdamnedghost]

The CC clinic was following instructions from a VA employee, who made an incredibly interesting choice not to document anything at all. That was dumb.

And the ketamine clinic admitted fault and rewrote their internal guidance to prevent that error from happening to anyone else.
