Once again I've got to point everyone to another blog because of the power of the story. I have no idea who these two young doctors are (other than from their blog) but they've got great perspective. In this installment they've retold an elders story of giving birth in a frozen hut during the dead of winter. It's very powerful. The book they reference is called Saqiyuk and the link to the re-told story is at Adventures in Medicine.
"Health 2.0 is participatory healthcare characterized by the ability to rapidly share, classify and summarize individual health information with the goals of improving health care systems, experiences and outcomes via integration of patients and stakeholders."
DISCLAIMER: Any cases presented or examples given are completely fictitious or are compellations of many situations I’ve been in. They come from my imagination and in no way depict any real patient or person I’ve ever met. All opinions are my own and not the opinion of any of my coworkers or people that I work with. I am not your doctor/surgeon so do not use any information here for your own care. This is just a blog of random thoughts on health care not individual advice.
