4 Ways to Know When It’s Time For Rehab

March 1, 2023 By Teresa Te

Are you struggling with addiction? Are you wondering if it’s time to talk to that loved one about getting help? Many people believe their addictions are not as severe as they appear to outsiders. You may feel that you are still “in control” and you can “stop at any time.” However, there are many signs that you may have hit a point when you need help and treatment. Waiting until you hit rock bottom can just worsen the problems and could lead you to making a mistake you can’t come back from. Included here are a few ways to know if it’s time for rehab.

Driving Under The Influence

Many people who have become addicts don’t realize when they are incapacitated. This often results in driving while intoxicated or high. In the United States, roughly 28 people die daily as a result of a drunk driver. Often, this is the person who is hit, and not the person driving under the influence. Choosing to get behind the wheel when you are under any kind of influence is an unwise choice for everyone involved. [Read more…]

This is true for the many depressed people the world over who suffer from disease but have no one to talk to to help them in their suffering. This leads to pain and thus lessens the quality of life for anyone who suffers in silence which should not be the case for help is just around the corner.

Google Health Launched

February 27, 2023 By Charlie

We’ve been hearing things about Google’s latest project, Google Health, for quite some time now. It was not till Monday of this week, however, that the service was launched for the use of the general public. So what is Google Health all about?

Here is what the Google Bloggers have to say:

It’s been a busy week for the Google Health team. Last week we announced our partnership and pilot with the Cleveland Clinic. This week, the team has been at the HIMSS (Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society) conference in Orlando, Florida, where Eric Schmidt gave the closing keynote. Eric’s keynote marks the first time we’ve talked publicly about the product we’ve been designing and building. His talk also offered a deeper view into our overall health strategy.

Google Health aims to solve an urgent need that dovetails with our overall mission of organizing patient information and making it accessible and useful. Through our health offering, our users will be empowered to collect, store, and manage their own medical records online.

I believe that this is something that will make it big in the very near future. After all, we all want this kind of information to be available at the click of a button. And if reports are to be believe, clients are already snatching up the opportunity to do so.

The NY Times reports:

In a two-month trial this year, the Cleveland Clinic found that its patients were eager to use the Google health records.
The pilot project, limited to 1,600 patients, was quickly oversubscribed, said C. Martin Harris, the Cleveland Clinic’s chief information officer. Dr. Harris also said that when the clinic’s online health records, introduced in 2004, were linked to the Google record the clinic’s records were used more frequently by patients. “It positioned our personal health record more into an activity that they use every day,” Dr. Harris said.

As of now, the clinics and other health organizations that are going to partner up with Google are located only in the US. I have no doubt that this will expand sooner or later.
