#COVID19 may have become endemic, but the after-effects of the initial outbreak are still being felt. New work from @lucindaleungmd of @VA_CSHIIP in @JAMANetworkOpen.
This cohort study finds a small but significant worsening of depressive symptoms and suicide risk in the early–#COVID19 period among US veterans. @lucindaleungmd @vahsrd @va_cshiip @DOM_UCLA @ucla_gimhsr @VAResearch @VeteransHealth

Really important piece, including work that @lucindaleungmd has led. Great to hear her share her latest work on Medicaid telehealth policies at our weekly @UCLA_GIMHSR seminar today. Feeling lucky to learn from and work with so many brilliant people! ✨
Older men die by suicide at steep rates. Here's how the VA is trying to change that

“#Burnout manifests in the individual but originates from the system.” Couldn’t agree more w/ @ChristineSinsky Let’s work together w/ system leaders, physicians, and researchers to fix this! @ACPIMPhysicians #IM2023

What is homeless-tailored primary care at the VA, i.e. #HPACT?
va.gov
Apply for and manage the VA benefits and services you’ve earned as a Veteran, Servicemember, or family member—like health care, disability, education, and more.

Wondering why healthcare workers experience #burnout? “Less than 1% of research spending supports investigation related to optimizing health care delivery and quality of care… almost no funding has been allocated to support research on clinician well-being.”
"The solution to clinician burnout is to fix the environment that causes burnout in the first place." @Ted_Melnick. In @JAMA_current we rec $50M/yr x 10 yr in research into optimizing practice environment. (< 0.1% of current research budget)

What a joy it was to have @mad_sters from @WeillCornell join us for VA Los Angeles Dept of Med Grand Rounds! @UCLA_GIMHSR
Always wonderful to hear my friend Dr. Maddie Sterling (@mad_sters) share her research as a national leader in the role of health care workers & heart failure outcomes. If you’re still looking for a Grand Rounds speaker to close out the year, look no further! cc @lucindaleungmd
