FREE eBook Coming: Your Hospital Stay

Thank you to our many readers who downloaded our current FREE eBook, Easy Healthcare: What You Need First. I have received many great comments and I thoroughly enjoy hearing from you. Starting July 1, we will be offering a new FREE eBook.

In Easy Healthcare: Your Hospital Stay, I talk about what you should know before you or your loved ones get admitted to the hospital. Of course, we all would like to avoid being admitted to a hospital, but sometimes it’s unavoidable.

As many of you know, I have worked in healthcare for over 30 years. I cared for my newborn daughter who was in the hospital many times for a life-threatening illness. I later cared for my aging parents who were in and out of the hospital. I also worked for many years in a hospital and continue to work with doctors and hospitals everyday. In this FREE ebook, I teach you what the insiders know about being in a hospital.

I will teach you:

How to choose your hospital wisely – not all hospitals are the same
What to do if you need to go to the emergency room
How to actively participate in your care
How to talk to your specialists while you are in the hospital
What to expect during your stay – from room types to staff to meals
How to plan your discharge

As with all of the Easy Healthcare eBooks, I make the important information simple and straight-forward so you know what the healthcare experts know and can get the best care possible.

If you want to get your FREE copy of this eBook, go to my website, myhealthspin.com on or after July 1st and subscribe to download it for free. You will also get our FREE bi-weekly blog on healthcare topics written just for you.

Celebrate Mother’s Day The HealthSpin Way

Being a mom often times means taking care of others before yourself. I encourage moms of every age to make themselves a priority and take easy steps toward a healthier and safer life. Among these include:

Maintaining a healthy diet
Engaging in physical activity
Getting enough sleep
Finding ways to reduce stress
And sharing your medical history with your friends and family

Making sure your personal and family health history is often times forgotten, but can be very important in the event of an emergency. What you need is a Medical Life List! In a nutshell, your Medical Life List is your own personal medical record created by you and updated by you.

You can find the template of the Medical Life List in MyHealthSpin’s free eBook, Easy Healthcare Guide: What You Need First.

So the question is…how will you celebrate Mom this Mother’s Day?

Helpful Healthcare Links: April 30, 2015

Our helpful health care links focus on two hot topics in healthcare this week– An update on the devastating earthquake in Nepal and an what it looks like when a healthcare record is hijacked. Both are worth your time. And, as always, if you ever come across a healthcare story that you think merits more attention, please send it our way!

Inside Nepal’s Next Challenge: Overflowing Hospitals

Hospitals throughout Nepal are flooded with patients, with thousands in need of care for acute injuries after a massive earthquake that the country’s leader said may have killed up to 10,000.

A Day in the Life of a Stolen Healthcare Record

The process of divining the provenance of stolen healthcare records. These records typically are processed or handled by a gauntlet of third party firms, most of which have no direct relationship with the patient or customer ultimately harmed by the breach.
