Healthcare services around the world are reeling from the consequences of a pandemic. We have news media and social media that are full of discontent with the provision of these core services and we hear the word crisis so regularly, sometimes it's easy to forget what normal is
So much of our healthcare system is devoted to the treatment of disease, rather than wellbeing and prevention. So much so that we are seeing our hospitals full of patients with worsening amenable disease with ultimately worse health outcomes.
Joining me today is Dr David Galler, retired intensive care doctor, health leader and author of the book Things That Matter to talk about his experiences in the intensive care unit. He shares with us his insights of working both as a clinician with our sickest people as well as the difficulties of trying to drive change as a leader within the bureuacracy. If we only focus on improving our treatments, will we continue to chase our own tails by refusing to focus on the real drivers of poor health?
