Compilation Episode 3
This is a bonus longer episode; a compilation of episodes 17-23 of the podcast so you can listen to them back-to-back.
2:12 Episode 17 - Resolution
In early January, how many people have made a resolution, and how many people have not kept it a week later??
This episode covers resolutions or work objectives and how to use SMART to help clarify your thoughts about them and increase the chance of you sticking to your resolutions.
SMART - Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound
Useful summary wiki article:

10:30 Episode 18 - Life
Sometimes life gets in the way of things you want to do, so this is not a normal episode.
12:53 Episode 19 - Debrief
Debriefs can be hot, cold or personal and I cover all three types in this podcast.
Underlying this, it's important to think about people's emotions, describing an aspect of an incident in detail, analysing it to improve by applying lessons learned and summarising learning points.

27:58 Episode 20 - Death
It's going to happen to all of us at some point.
As healthcare workers we need to be comfortable thinking about, talking about and managing dying patients and their death.
For clinicians I would also highly recommend the Resus Room podcast on End of Life care, featuring a discussion with Ed Presswood, a palliative care consultant:

36:45 Episode 21 - Compassion
Why do we sometimes lose compassion in our journey in healthcare?
If you want to delve into the evidence behind the need for more compassion in healthcare I can thoroughly recommend:
Compassionomics: The revolutionary scientific evidence that caring makes a difference. Studer Group 2019. Trzeciak and Mazzarelli or find out more on www.compassionomics.com
What are you going to spend 40 seconds doing to show your compassion today?
47:44 Episode 22 - Targets
Are they an object to be shot at or the means to achieve progress against a priority?
Healthcare work is full of targets - what do they mean to you and your work?
55:19 Episode 23 - Leave
Why is it important to take time away from work? It should be self-evident but many of us, especially in healthcare do not prioritise this important part of working life - not being at work!
