4.4 out of 5 stars from 93 ratings
  • Overall pretty good.

    Really great content, super useful summaries. The sound quality could be better though. It’s a bit hard to hear the speakers clearly if you’re listening anywhere other than a quiet environment.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

EKU Podcast: Physical health in severe mental illness
Q: Carolyn, can you explain the reasons behind the mortality gap?
People with SMI die younger due to a combination of physical health problems, iatrogenic factors, lifestyle choices, and the way they may present their symptoms.
What makes Veterans different from other patients?
Q: Was that really important for you that they asked you if you were a veteran?
It was very important for them to know that all of these things weren't just because I was depressed.
A blast from the past: the resurgence of measles
Q: Why has measles been rare over the last 20 years?
The rarity of measles is mostly due to the effective MMR vaccination introduced in 1998, which significantly reduced case numbers.
A blast from the past: the resurgence of measles
Q: What are the rising concerns about measles in the UK?
There is a potential resurgence of measles due to declining vaccination rates, with some areas having MMR uptake below 50%, which poses a significant risk for outbreaks.
How to improve vaccine coverage of the MMR vaccine in your community
Q: How do you address these topics in a one-to-one consultation with concerned parents?
I ally with the parents by recognizing we share a common goal for their child's health and use motivational interviewing to address concerns without pushing for immediate vaccination.
