Future generations will be more than capable of joining the transformation. Equip them with tools, then get away from it.
The future workforce is warned, originally digital and eager to transform care. And with new medical education approaches such as Dell Med’s advanced program, which emphasizes team learning and transdisciplinary collaboration, future practitioners will have an unprecedented opportunity to redefine the experience of care health.
“We are in a super interesting moment in human progress and evolution,” said Dell. “It is now possible for almost anyone to draw on knowledge to help them think about any problem with which they deal in a way that has never been possible before. In medical schools in the past, the idea was that you are supposed to know everything. Now, the practitioner has the opportunity to have huge amounts of help to inform their capacities. »»
The co-creation is not optional.
No discipline can resolve the most urgent challenges of health care – and we cannot afford to ignore the patient’s perspective. For a lasting impact to Austin, we must unite the forces: world class expertise through computers, engineering and other disciplines; A flourishing sector of life and innovation; And the experienced experience centered on the patient, all moving in the same direction.
“This is a big change and an opportunity to revolutionize health care,” said Dell. “Recognize this and talk about it a lot with patients, with caregivers, with the whole community of opportunities to improve care, improve results. Whenever you are going through a big change, you want to be able to paint an image or a vision to excite people – but we must recognize that there will be challenges. There will be things that will have to be worked and involve everyone in this process at the speed of confidence is the right approach. »»
The time has come to invest in the culture that will lead us into the future.
People and experts can come and go, but culture hard, and it cannot be built or modified overnight. For a truly integrated world -class academic health system, a culture of trust, transparency and collaboration must be built from day 1.
“What will help you succeed is the way you build the culture of players who will create the future of Austin,” said Noseworthy. “If you do not take advantage of chemical engineers and robotic manufacturers and basic designers and scientists and people passionate about teaching, you will underline. If you establish confidence with them and have a common vision of what we can do together, you can do everything. »»
Interrupt it in the future depends on the maintenance of a clear objective.
The rapid adaptation to new technological advances is vital for longevity, but keep a constant accent on the final objective. Care truly centered on the patient, for example, must remain the northern star, even if new methods and parameters – such as “Hospital at home” technology – are developing.
“You have to choose a point on the horizon and run towards this, but also build the infrastructure and the hooks so that you can continue to innovate on a continuous basis, because things will change,” said Dell. “There will be new information, and we will learn things along the way, and there will be all kinds of progress that can create another point on the horizon. It’s as if you are saying in business: it’s a race without a finish line. Continue to run.
