“Individuals who are members of the Leadership Cincinnati class are accepting another level of accountability and responsibility for this community,” says Sean Comer, vice president of the chamber’s Leadership Center. “If you look at cohorts from 25-plus years ago, you will find people who still hold key leadership roles in this community today and who have changed the face of our region.”

Lindner Center of HOPE Psychiatrist Co-Authors Recommendations on Clinical Documentation of Electroconvulsive Therapy

Lindner Center of HOPE staff psychiatrist, Nelson F. Rodriguez, MD, FAPA, has co-authored an article titled, “National Network of Depression Centers’ Recommendations on Harmonizing Clinical Documentation of Electroconvulsive Therapy” which was recently published in The Journal of ECT.

The article is intended to provide documentation guidance for Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT), that generally has seen varied clinical practices.

Dr. Rodriguez was one of 19 representatives of leading ECT centers across the country, participating in the National Network of Depression Centers (NNDC) Task Group.

The background for the article states, “The NNDC ECT Task Group set out to define standards for the clinical documentation of ECT to promote interoperability and the exchange of clinical information to better inform treatment decisions and, at the same time, facilitate a nationwide collaboration that can carry out multisite quality improvement and longitudinal research in real-world settings, which overcomes the limitations of small sample sizes and short follow-up periods that often plague efforts to study ECT.”

A link to the article:  https://journals.lww.com/ectjournal/Fulltext/2022/09000/National_Network_of_Depression_Centers_.7.aspx.

The National Network of Depression Centers (NNDC), is a consortium of 26+ geographically distributed US academic medical centers of excellence providing care for patients with mood disorders.

Lindner Center of HOPE in Mason is a comprehensive mental health center providing excellent, patient-centered, scientifically-advanced care for individuals suffering with mental illness. A state-of-the-science, mental health center and charter member of the National Network of Depression Centers, the Center provides psychiatric hospitalization and partial hospitalization for individuals age 12-years-old and older, outpatient services for all ages, diagnostic services for all ages and short-term residential services for adults, and research. The Center is enhanced by its partnership with UC Health as its clinicians are ranked among the best providers locally, nationally and internationally. Together Lindner Center of HOPE and UC Health offer a true system of mental health care in the Greater Cincinnati area and across the country. The Center is also affiliated with the University of Cincinnati (UC) College of Medicine.

Lindner Center of HOPE Staff Psychologist, Laurie Little, PsyD, was named a finalist for the Cincinnati Business Courier’s 2022 Health Care Heroes Awards in the Patient Experience category. Here is an excerpt from Dr. Little’s nomination:

Both in her patient care role and in her responsibilities in providing clinical supervision of staff, Dr. Little is deeply involved in patient experience. She has received firsthand feedback on the challenges and opportunities synonymous with patient experience/customer service from all constituents, including:  patients, families, referral sources and internal staff.

Inspired by Lindner Center of HOPE’s commitment to excellence and empathy in all facets of the organization’s performance, Dr. Little offered to help invent a unique approach to patient experience utilizing tenants very familiar to many in the mental health field and common in the treatment of mental illnesses.

A specially-trained provider in the implementation of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Dr. Little has an exceptional grasp on the varied applications of this therapeutic intervention that can help improve mood, thinking and behaviors. A core treatment at Lindner Center of HOPE, Dr. Little seized the opportunity to integrate the principles of DBT into customer service training for the entire Lindner Center of HOPE staff.

DBT goes beyond traditional therapies that focus exclusively on the change process and incorporates Eastern traditions to help ease emotional suffering with acceptance for things that cannot change. Building on that knowledge, Dr. Little constructed an innovative customer service training. A first of its kind, the training applies DBT “language”, one with which many Lindner Center of HOPE staff are familiar, and applies it to the language focusing on customer service. The training was designed not only to help patients have positive experiences, but also to help empower the employee to feel better prepared and more confident in dealing with stressful customer service situations.

The training reviews the three Es of customer service:  excellence, empathy, and expectations in an interactive presentation with skills development and discussion.

Dr. Little went above and beyond her responsibilities to address a need in a creative and customized way. She had a vision for utilizing a dialectical framework in understanding excellent customer service and took the initiative to be the architect of a brand new training model. The model considers:  if the focus is only on the viewpoint of the customer, employees feel frustrated and burned out. If the focus is only on the viewpoint of the employee, then the customer is more resistant and feels unheard. The dialectical framework means that even if both viewpoints on the surface appear different, they can both be true. This theme brings staff and customers closer together.

Dr. Little is a Health Care Hero for her innovative approach to improving patient experience. A specially -trained Dialectical Behavior Therapy expert, she recognized the benefit of applying the therapy’s skills and tenants to patient experience.

This inventive take on patient experience training is anticipated to have a significant impact, not only on patient satisfaction, but on employee satisfaction.

Dr. Little is a trailblazer in patient experience and thereby a Health Care Hero.
