Description
After working alongside healthcare providers in under-resourced countries, today’s Raise the Line guest Dr. Rebecca Weintraub came to see that the desire to serve patients and the curiosity to learn how to be the best clinician possible are universal, but the best tools to do so are not. That’s what led her to launch the Better Evidence program at Ariadne Labs which designs, tests and scales data-driven digital tools that help manage diagnostic and therapeutic uncertainty. Currently, Better Evidence engages over 200,000 current and future clinicians and public health leaders in a 147 medical schools and clinical sites across 182 countries. “If you are an isolated provider or a trainee, we believe evidence-based clinical tools help you improve your clinical confidence and clinical acumen. We're trying to help create the habits of educating yourself on the journey to being an excellent clinician.” In this illuminating conversation with host Hillary Acer, Weintraub also talks about other capacity-building work such as helping to prepare clinicians for major public health roles, and the critical importance of providers having reliable internet and cell connectivity, something she expects will improve in the near future. Don’t miss this on-the-ground view of some key elements in improving the delivery of healthcare across the globe. Mentioned in this episode: https://www.better-evidence.org/

Dr. Conrad Fischer - Infectious Disease Specialist, Brookdale Hospital Medical Center: "Your calling is sacred." That's the message Dr. Conrad Fischer has for people entering health professions, especially in the midst of the coronavirus crisis. He took a few moments out from treating COVID-19 patients, twenty of whom had died in his Brooklyn hospital the previous day, to describe the fear, frustration, dedication and humanity of his colleagues who are doing their best in unprecedented circumstances. It's a gripping eyewitness account from the eye of the storm. by Raise the Line
