10 Benefits an EPCR Software should Bring to EMS Organizations Traumasoft LLC
The benefits of an ePCR solution should extend to the whole EMS organization, not just certain groups of people or certain departments. It should provide more than just a form for entering and a database for storing information. It should also include a workflow of how information is communicated, used and stored across the entire organization.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

Debbie and grant program
The grant funding process begins in the spring with community grant information sessions. Organizations submit letters of intent and if approved to continue, they submit a formal grant proposal. Owensboro Health also offers a mini-grant program, year-round, for community event sponsorships and smaller health-related projects. (Note: We allocate $60,000.00 in mini grant funds annually.)

Arts was not specifically mentioned
That was the vision that Ann will discuss
Its hard to know where you are going if you don’t know where you have been.
Let’s look at where we were.
Much anticipation what we wanted in the new faculty.
Many involved and engaged.
This video helps to capture that.
Which takes us to arts in medicine and the healing environment.
This important perspective is echoed in the organization's 1946 preamble, wherein health is defined as a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being rather than merely the absence of disease or infirmity.
Implied in this definition is the tie to health outcomes or changes in health as a result of an action; in the present case, the connection between artistic engagement and the psychosocial and biological manifestations of that connection. More specifically, there is evidence that engagement with artistic activities, either as an observer of the creative efforts of others or as an initiator of one's own creative efforts, can enhance one's moods, emotions, and other psychological states as well as have a salient impact on important physiological parameters.
For those unfamiliar with arts in medicine, or the healing environment as we call it, I have a short video produced by UF health.
The idea that creative expression can make a powerful contribution to the healing process has been embraced in many different cultures. Throughout recorded history, people have used pictures, stories, dances, and chants as healing rituals.27 there has been much philosophical and anecdotal discussion about the benefits of art and healing, but less empirical research exists in the literature. In fact, although arts therapy has been used clinically for more than a century28 and has been recognized as a profession since 1991,29 much of the published work is theoretical in nature, with little discussion of specific outcomes.13,30 Only in recent years have systematic and controlled studies examined the therapeutic effects and benefits of the arts and healing.31
Nevertheless, we have seen positive outcomes for the potential of using art to promote healing in our 4 primary areas of focus. This article is not meant to be a comprehensive review of all of the literature available (other authors have provided comprehensive overviews in areas such as music therapy32 and expressive writing33). Instead, it represents a sampling of the many potential benefits of art in enhancing health and wellness.
There is evidence that use of art and music reduces hospital stays, with studies showing earlier discharges among patients taking part in visual and performing arts interventions than among those not doing so.69,70 In 1 study, surgery or critical care patients who participated in guided imagery or had a picture of a landscape on their wall had a decreased need of narcotic pain medication relative to their counterparts and left the hospital earlier.71,72 Evaluations of art projects can link the benefits of creative expression to healing and greater wellness.
With that background, allow me to introduce Ann Kincheloe who lead these efforts and was a volunteer board member at the time.
So gives us some background on the committee and how you got started.
You created a policy as well.
Go over slides.
Music Engagement
Music is the most accessible and most researched medium of art and healing, and there has been a principal emphasis on the soothing capacity of music and its ability to offset overly technological approaches to care.34In particular, music therapy has been shown to decrease anxiety.35–37 The pleasure shared by participants in the healing process through a music therapy program can help to restore emotional balance as well.38 There is also evidence of the effectiveness of auditory stimulation, together with a strong suggestion that such stimulation abolishes pain, as a strategy for achieving control over pain.39
In addition, it has been shown that music can calm neural activity in the brain,40 which may lead to reductions in anxiety, and that it may help to restore effective functioning in the immune system partly via the actions of the amygdala and hypothalamus. As the activity levels of neurons in the central nucleus of the amygdala decrease in response to calming effects of music, there may be corresponding reductions in the signals being sent to other parts of the brain. Table 1 outlines the results of key studies we reviewed that focused on music engagement.2
Now tell us about the selection process.
Let me show a few of the images.
How many pieces are there in the facility do you know?
So you assembled the pieces around the hospital.
Let’s take a look at some of these pieces as they are placed.
Tell us the story about the pieces here.
The next slide is probably the most telling.
The old to the new.
Doesn’t show the view.
But you didn’t just stop on the inside.
You also have more work on the outside.
Tell us about that process.

This is also another great story.
And while all this is beautiful, we are not done.
We are now working to realize the full extent of the policy that was adopted.
Debbie Johnson is now leading this work and she can tell you more about that.
So let me close with another short video. Now that you know more about the facility, perhaps the video will resonate more with you.
We welcome you in our facility any time.
