  • What "Can Do" Culture Can Do in Healthcare, Part 2
    Feb 16 2026

    Summary:

    In this episode of the Critical Care Obstetrics podcast, the hosts discuss the implications of a 'can-do' culture in healthcare, particularly in obstetrics. They explore how this attitude can lead to workarounds that, while initially well-intentioned, can negatively impact patient safety and staff well-being. The conversation delves into the importance of leadership in addressing these issues, the need for standardized assessments, and the dangers of normalizing deviations from best practices. The hosts emphasize the significance of clear roles during emergencies and the impact of burnout on healthcare professionals. They conclude with a call to action for team collaboration and empowerment to drive positive change in healthcare settings.

I just love listening to the case studies. They really make me think about the care I am giving and how "vital" all my assessments really are. Very easy to listen to and I often find myself thinking through the scenarios as if they were at my own facility. The talks on simulation have me working to better our facilities simulation and makes me want to just have you come help us be one of the best! Thanks for doing these podcasts, there were definitely needed!
