Recent scientific studies reveal that depression AND the chronic stress of modern life are causing measurable brain shrinkage. And this is leading us to lower IQ’s, brain fog and “senior moments” (like misplacing your keys or forgetting why you walked into a room). And it gets worse...
A recently discovered miracle protein can protect your brain from mental decline, and keep the mental sharpness and focus of a much younger self.
The most important priority of the healthcare system is to ensure patient safety. Errors regarding drug safety comprise 18-22% of all medical errors. Medication errors can occur due to both human error and system errors. As Acıbadem Healthcare Group, we aim to draw attention and raise awareness to the errors of medicine and way to prevent it.

You can take steps to reduce the chance of a medical error happening to you or a loved one. The most important thing that you can do is to become an active member of your or your family’s health care team. This means asking questions of your doctor, nurse or pharmacist and speaking up if you have concerns. Also shown at: healthcare411.ahrq.gov

Is healthcare a right or a luxury? The answer each individual gives to that question depends largely on their previous experiences with medical care, and on their geographical background and personal philosophy. It is not as simple as it sounds. But the world is getting smaller, and it is imperative that we develop a shared understanding of what kind of healthcare system works best for society in general, and how to fund this effectively. In this talk, Tarik Sammour challenges the audience to think about these questions and engages them in a passionate debate, while putting his own personal spin on things as all good speakers do! Tarik Sammour is a surgeon at the Royal Adelaide Hospital and an Associate Professor at the University of Adelaide, specialising in advanced bowel cancer surgery, patient outcome centred research and robotics. Throughout his training, Tarik has been privileged to work in a wide variety of healthcare systems, from the smallest general hospital in rural New Zealand to one of the largest medical centres in the United States, giving him a unique first-hand insight into what works well for patients and what doesn’t. One of the reasons he eventually chose to settle in Adelaide was because he saw the city’s potential as a leader in healthcare delivery and innovation. With an ageing population and spiralling healthcare costs, he has some ideas to solve problems that are relevant to us all. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx Video Rating: / 5
