Dan has also been awarded the 2014 Early Career Achievement Award from the IU School of Medicine Alumni Association In 2006 the Medical Alumni Association established this annual recognition for the outstanding accomplishments by medical alumni who have graduated within 15 years of the award presentationfinished his residency in 1999 and receives the award at the 2014 Strawberry Shortcake Alumni Luncheon held on Saturday May 17 2014 at 1115 Bring on the strawberriesestablished this annual recognition for outstanding accomplishments by medical alumni who have graduated within 15 years of the award presentation Danfinished his residency in rsquo99 and will be presented the award at the 2014 Strawberry Shortcake Alumni Luncheon on Saturday May 17 2014 at 1115 am
Carey Chisholm receives Lifetime Achievement AwardWhen Terez Malka saw the American Academy of Emergency Medicine-RSA (AAEM-RSA) announcement for nominees for Program Director of the Year she knew that that just wasnrsquot enough for Carey Chisholmmdashhis accomplishments were beyond the scope of that award So she came up with the idea for a Life-Time Achievement Award (even though hersquos far from either being dead or done) What started as an idea to accumulate funny anecdotes grew into glowing tributes from the people whose lives Carey has impacted
In accepting his award he graciously thanked many including all who have made his career so enjoyable over the years especially Kevin Rodgers
A teacher even as he accepted the award he still had lessons to teach
bull Lesson 1 - Invest in your family CDC had a big thanks for his wife (of 34 years) Robin and their two daughters Kelsey and Tyler
bull Lesson 2 - Get on the right bus it is best to work for great bosses and organizations
bull Lesson 3 ndash Surround yourself with people who are better than you are they will push you to be better than you aremdashand he considers himself to work with amazing faculty and one great class of residents after another He added them up and hersquos worked with over 500
At first Jeff Kline was thrilled to learn that he was awarded the second annual Bantz-Petronio Translating Research into Practice (TRIP) Award and then he realized that hersquod have to receive it wearing a cap and gown The award will be presented at the IUPUI Chancellorrsquos Academic Honors Convocation on Friday April 25 2014 The ceremony which takes place in Hine Hall is a celebration of outstanding achievements by IUPUI faculty and students
Jeff Kline won the award for his interdisciplinary research and the positive impact it makes on peoplersquos lives There is not enough room in this newsletter to report all of his innovations for instance he has 12 patents His work has been truly translation taking insights from his clinical trials and
laboratory experiments and providing emergency physicians throughout the US with the tools to better diagnose and treat patients with thromboembolic disease In recent years the IU School of Medicine and IUPUI have placed a great emphasis on translational work This award is a tangible sign that in this research area Jeff and the ED are leaders

I hear you had an unusual childhood
I grew up all over but mostly in southern Mexico in the state of Chiapas This meant growing up without running water electricity or indoor plumbing My mom homeschooled me and as part of this would send me outside with orders like ldquoFind ten different bugs and categorize themrdquo
What brought you to Chiapas
My parents worked for the Wycliffe organization whose goal is to create a written language for indigenous groups so that people can read the Bible in their own language My parents worked with the Chientec in Mexico My father is a linguist and mom was a nurse She did a lot of clinic work down there So I picked up phrases in Chinentec like ldquodo you have diarrhea ldquo When did you returned to the states
I went to high school in Texas then a liberal arts college in Tennessee I started out a Chemistry and Biology major then switched to Chemistry and English because I decided I was going to be a famous writer In fact I started Grad school in creative writing But as you know plans change Jody and I were expecting our first child so I put grad school on hold to get a real job On advice of my father we went out to California and I started working for a software company
Was this during the boom
Yes I was there for the high times and low times I moved out there in 1997 I worked for Oracle for a bit and then I was in at the ground level for a company called Semio I was the 5th employee in what would become a 150-person company We were working with natural language processing software We looked at how computers understand English language text and make sense of it I was an analyzer who grew into a product developer I was a designer not a programmer
So yoursquore in Silicon Valley and times are good
It was great until the bust Semio went belly up--me and everyone else were looking for work I was out of work for eight months The rumor going around was that U-Haul was paying people to drive their trucks back to the Bay area because so many people were leaving It was a desperate time and I needed something more stable We stayed with my wifersquos family in Brownsburg and I started studying for the MCATs I applied to Medical Schools and got accepted at the University of Michigan Around the same time one of the original investors in Semio asked that I join him in a new start up As if Med School wasnrsquot enough and proving lrsquom a glutton for punishment I collaborated with him on the new company Tablus which ultimately became successful
JOSH MUGELETHE PATH LESS TRAVELED IN EMERGENCY MEDICINE
McDonald called this new area the ER-ICU for the acute people So we trained the nurses I even had a doctor shadow me so he could see triage in action I could see ldquolight bulbsrdquo coming on At the end of the week we had everything set up Dr McDonald had a big ribbon cutting ceremony with the national newspaper and radio there
Q Their Emergency Department is busy
A They have a huge volume of patients and lots of trauma The country is becoming modernized One of the ways you can see that is by all the young men who buy motorcycles or as they call them pin-pins Apparently the drivers constantly honk or pin so they are called pin-pins Traffic is horrendous and many people get injured riding pin-pins
Q Tell me about your wife and daughters
I met my wife Jody in college She grew up in Brownsburg and currently manages a group of editors at an Internet marketing
company She has written a couple of young adult novels and has an agent shopping them around Shersquos now writing the third Irsquom proud of her Jody has researched the publishing houses and understands much more about the business than I ever did My older daughter Eleanor is in the 10th grade at Herron High School She is an excellent violinist and we are excited that shersquos a member of the New World Youth Symphony You can go to wwwnwysoorg for upcoming performance dates Like her mom Eleanor is a writer My younger daughter is Magnolia and at 12 shersquos
has a little more of a typical teenager experience than her sister Shersquos going to a Washington township school and then will go to Herron High School
Q As someone who has been all over the world is there an Indy restaurant yoursquod recommend
A My favorite hole in the wall is a place called Guatalinda It is on Layfayette Rd south of 34th It has the best tacos and papusas For me it is comfort food When we lived in Michigan there was no real Mexican food My mom would make a bunch of tamales pack them in dry ice and ship them up to me That and bottles of Mexican Coke
Q + A with JOSH MUGELEQ How did you end up in Emergency Medicine
A For me it was an obvious choice I hate being bored I need constant stimulation That is a big fear in my life to be bored and run out of things to do I would hate a job where 20 years down the road I was doing the same thing everyday I just couldnrsquot do that
Q What was your decider to come to IUSM
A The program Carey Chisholm sold me on it He insisted that he would push us He said it wouldnrsquot be easy but we would be better doctors I wasnrsquot planning on living in Indy when we lived in California we had a view of the ocean from our apartment but I was willing to come here for three years as long as we didnrsquot have to live in the suburbs We enjoy living downtown
Q How did the disaster medicine fellowship come about
I like finding my own niche and something I can do on my own After discussions with Dan OrsquoDonnell he and I came up with the idea of Disaster Medicine This allowed me to stay with the program and find some unique opportunities Through Dan OrsquoDonnell Irsquove come to know about MESH (a local coalition focused on disaster management and surge control) Within Indianapolis this has helped me connect with people and learn about projects and disaster management Skills you want to have but hope you never use For example MESH and the Mass Casualty Response Team have created a protocol to help coordinate things like routing patients to different hospitals in Indianapolis
Q Does this fellowship have you traveling
A Last fall I went to Africa with the CEO of MESH to help get a new project started in Liberia We are treating it as a resource-depleted environment One of the goals of my year in the disaster medicine was to find a resource-depleted environment where they would let us work with them to develop a disaster preparedness system We made contact with Dr McDonald (a PhD from the IU School of Nursing) the CEO of a hospital in Monrovia Liberia She invited us to come for a weeklong fact-
finding tour When I go back in June for a month we will pursue possible projects and collaborations Monroviarsquos JFK Memorial Hospital is the referral hospital for the entire nation This hospital does not have consistently running water they have regular electrical outages weekly fires and regular floods Most of the hospital is not air-conditioned Resource-depleted hospital is really the best way to describe it They lack basic things like gloves tape alcohol wipes and hand sanitizer I will have to figure out what I can take with me when I go back there in June
Q Does JFK Hospital have the equipment they need
A Actually that was one thing we were able to help with on our scouting mission Dr McDonald wanted us to look at the area set aside for acute care She had some donated beds and equipment--but no one had ever trained them on how to use the monitors or ventilators
For example one of our first patients was a woman with congestive heart failure We were pumping her full of nitro and watching the monitor to see her 02 stats go upmdashbut they didnrsquot That made us realize that the oxygen machine she was hooked to was the problem With a switch to another machine she pinked up Proper use of the monitor was the game changer that helped save her life and they hadnrsquot been able to use them before
Q You worked with the local doctors
A Yes The doctors and nurses had good medical training but no one had ever explained the acute care process to them They needed help with the logistics Dr

IUEM welcomes Paul MuseyOnce he got the news in March that the chances for snow were getting down to a manageable level Paul Musey moved his family to Indianapolis This new faculty member comes to us from Charlotte NCmdashafter being born raised and going to medical school in Atlanta GA Please try to help guide him in the maze of the IU Med School including Eskenazi (which some people are still tempted to leave breadcrumbs to find their way around) and Indianapolis in general They are interested in checking out interesting restaurants and local brews
His arrival helps round out the department since now not only do we have a faculty member with an appreciation for balloon animals and someone with the middle initial I (stands for Idun) but he promises to play a more eclectic range of music than Chisholm (if possible) while he works Paul is an EM physician with an interest in pain and research Indianapolis is a place he should find plenty of both
The Perfect PoemBy Barbara Salomon
The perfect ED poem might beA symphony written by a madman
Performed by an orchestra in chaos
Mrs Kantowitz lost for 5 hoursIn the CT scan suite
Returns to ask ldquoWhat happenedrdquoAnd receives little answers
The shackled addict of room 13Heated with gin angry at GodSpits on the nursing student
Who learns Never lean in too closeMr Bennett repeats the
Gettysburg addressFrom grade school memoryHis current address lost in
cobwebsIf only Roosevelt really was
PresidentThe man could be released
The pirouettes of resuscitationThe team performing injecting
improvisingMovements constant unstrained
Done out of drill and habitRehearsed
How is it on any given nightAt any given hour
Such a collection of humanityDescends effortlessly faithfully
As if there were cures at allEloquence waits for admission
Tonightrsquos poem stinks and bleedsIt has a pulse and force
What poet could capture this violence
Or impersonal beautyCreated by sound and fed by
imageErased each day with new
charactersThe lost epic of a motherrsquos eyes
Her son shot by strangersWritten again by the baby
Born too soonToo fast in the backseat
No time to recite the rhymeOr parse the meter
The perfect ED poem is written sung
And destroyed every nightBy the hours of the clock

Carey Chisholm receives Lifetime Achievement AwardWhen Terez Malka saw the American Academy of Emergency Medicine-RSA (AAEM-RSA) announcement for nominees for Program Director of the Year she knew that that just wasnrsquot enough for Carey Chisholmmdashhis accomplishments were beyond the scope of that award So she came up with the idea for a Life-Time Achievement Award (even though hersquos far from either being dead or done) What started as an idea to accumulate funny anecdotes grew into glowing tributes from the people whose lives Carey has impacted
In accepting his award he graciously thanked many including all who have made his career so enjoyable over the years especially Kevin Rodgers
A teacher even as he accepted the award he still had lessons to teach
bull Lesson 1 - Invest in your family CDC had a big thanks for his wife (of 34 years) Robin and their two daughters Kelsey and Tyler
bull Lesson 2 - Get on the right bus it is best to work for great bosses and organizations
bull Lesson 3 ndash Surround yourself with people who are better than you are they will push you to be better than you aremdashand he considers himself to work with amazing faculty and one great class of residents after another He added them up and hersquos worked with over 500
At first Jeff Kline was thrilled to learn that he was awarded the second annual Bantz-Petronio Translating Research into Practice (TRIP) Award and then he realized that hersquod have to receive it wearing a cap and gown The award will be presented at the IUPUI Chancellorrsquos Academic Honors Convocation on Friday April 25 2014 The ceremony which takes place in Hine Hall is a celebration of outstanding achievements by IUPUI faculty and students
Jeff Kline won the award for his interdisciplinary research and the positive impact it makes on peoplersquos lives There is not enough room in this newsletter to report all of his innovations for instance he has 12 patents His work has been truly translation taking insights from his clinical trials and
laboratory experiments and providing emergency physicians throughout the US with the tools to better diagnose and treat patients with thromboembolic disease In recent years the IU School of Medicine and IUPUI have placed a great emphasis on translational work This award is a tangible sign that in this research area Jeff and the ED are leaders

I hear you had an unusual childhood
I grew up all over but mostly in southern Mexico in the state of Chiapas This meant growing up without running water electricity or indoor plumbing My mom homeschooled me and as part of this would send me outside with orders like ldquoFind ten different bugs and categorize themrdquo
What brought you to Chiapas
My parents worked for the Wycliffe organization whose goal is to create a written language for indigenous groups so that people can read the Bible in their own language My parents worked with the Chientec in Mexico My father is a linguist and mom was a nurse She did a lot of clinic work down there So I picked up phrases in Chinentec like ldquodo you have diarrhea ldquo When did you returned to the states
I went to high school in Texas then a liberal arts college in Tennessee I started out a Chemistry and Biology major then switched to Chemistry and English because I decided I was going to be a famous writer In fact I started Grad school in creative writing But as you know plans change Jody and I were expecting our first child so I put grad school on hold to get a real job On advice of my father we went out to California and I started working for a software company
Was this during the boom
Yes I was there for the high times and low times I moved out there in 1997 I worked for Oracle for a bit and then I was in at the ground level for a company called Semio I was the 5th employee in what would become a 150-person company We were working with natural language processing software We looked at how computers understand English language text and make sense of it I was an analyzer who grew into a product developer I was a designer not a programmer
So yoursquore in Silicon Valley and times are good
It was great until the bust Semio went belly up--me and everyone else were looking for work I was out of work for eight months The rumor going around was that U-Haul was paying people to drive their trucks back to the Bay area because so many people were leaving It was a desperate time and I needed something more stable We stayed with my wifersquos family in Brownsburg and I started studying for the MCATs I applied to Medical Schools and got accepted at the University of Michigan Around the same time one of the original investors in Semio asked that I join him in a new start up As if Med School wasnrsquot enough and proving lrsquom a glutton for punishment I collaborated with him on the new company Tablus which ultimately became successful
JOSH MUGELETHE PATH LESS TRAVELED IN EMERGENCY MEDICINE
McDonald called this new area the ER-ICU for the acute people So we trained the nurses I even had a doctor shadow me so he could see triage in action I could see ldquolight bulbsrdquo coming on At the end of the week we had everything set up Dr McDonald had a big ribbon cutting ceremony with the national newspaper and radio there
Q Their Emergency Department is busy
A They have a huge volume of patients and lots of trauma The country is becoming modernized One of the ways you can see that is by all the young men who buy motorcycles or as they call them pin-pins Apparently the drivers constantly honk or pin so they are called pin-pins Traffic is horrendous and many people get injured riding pin-pins
Q Tell me about your wife and daughters
I met my wife Jody in college She grew up in Brownsburg and currently manages a group of editors at an Internet marketing
company She has written a couple of young adult novels and has an agent shopping them around Shersquos now writing the third Irsquom proud of her Jody has researched the publishing houses and understands much more about the business than I ever did My older daughter Eleanor is in the 10th grade at Herron High School She is an excellent violinist and we are excited that shersquos a member of the New World Youth Symphony You can go to wwwnwysoorg for upcoming performance dates Like her mom Eleanor is a writer My younger daughter is Magnolia and at 12 shersquos
has a little more of a typical teenager experience than her sister Shersquos going to a Washington township school and then will go to Herron High School
Q As someone who has been all over the world is there an Indy restaurant yoursquod recommend
A My favorite hole in the wall is a place called Guatalinda It is on Layfayette Rd south of 34th It has the best tacos and papusas For me it is comfort food When we lived in Michigan there was no real Mexican food My mom would make a bunch of tamales pack them in dry ice and ship them up to me That and bottles of Mexican Coke
Q + A with JOSH MUGELEQ How did you end up in Emergency Medicine
A For me it was an obvious choice I hate being bored I need constant stimulation That is a big fear in my life to be bored and run out of things to do I would hate a job where 20 years down the road I was doing the same thing everyday I just couldnrsquot do that
Q What was your decider to come to IUSM
A The program Carey Chisholm sold me on it He insisted that he would push us He said it wouldnrsquot be easy but we would be better doctors I wasnrsquot planning on living in Indy when we lived in California we had a view of the ocean from our apartment but I was willing to come here for three years as long as we didnrsquot have to live in the suburbs We enjoy living downtown
Q How did the disaster medicine fellowship come about
I like finding my own niche and something I can do on my own After discussions with Dan OrsquoDonnell he and I came up with the idea of Disaster Medicine This allowed me to stay with the program and find some unique opportunities Through Dan OrsquoDonnell Irsquove come to know about MESH (a local coalition focused on disaster management and surge control) Within Indianapolis this has helped me connect with people and learn about projects and disaster management Skills you want to have but hope you never use For example MESH and the Mass Casualty Response Team have created a protocol to help coordinate things like routing patients to different hospitals in Indianapolis
Q Does this fellowship have you traveling
A Last fall I went to Africa with the CEO of MESH to help get a new project started in Liberia We are treating it as a resource-depleted environment One of the goals of my year in the disaster medicine was to find a resource-depleted environment where they would let us work with them to develop a disaster preparedness system We made contact with Dr McDonald (a PhD from the IU School of Nursing) the CEO of a hospital in Monrovia Liberia She invited us to come for a weeklong fact-
finding tour When I go back in June for a month we will pursue possible projects and collaborations Monroviarsquos JFK Memorial Hospital is the referral hospital for the entire nation This hospital does not have consistently running water they have regular electrical outages weekly fires and regular floods Most of the hospital is not air-conditioned Resource-depleted hospital is really the best way to describe it They lack basic things like gloves tape alcohol wipes and hand sanitizer I will have to figure out what I can take with me when I go back there in June
Q Does JFK Hospital have the equipment they need
A Actually that was one thing we were able to help with on our scouting mission Dr McDonald wanted us to look at the area set aside for acute care She had some donated beds and equipment--but no one had ever trained them on how to use the monitors or ventilators
For example one of our first patients was a woman with congestive heart failure We were pumping her full of nitro and watching the monitor to see her 02 stats go upmdashbut they didnrsquot That made us realize that the oxygen machine she was hooked to was the problem With a switch to another machine she pinked up Proper use of the monitor was the game changer that helped save her life and they hadnrsquot been able to use them before
Q You worked with the local doctors
A Yes The doctors and nurses had good medical training but no one had ever explained the acute care process to them They needed help with the logistics Dr

IUEM welcomes Paul MuseyOnce he got the news in March that the chances for snow were getting down to a manageable level Paul Musey moved his family to Indianapolis This new faculty member comes to us from Charlotte NCmdashafter being born raised and going to medical school in Atlanta GA Please try to help guide him in the maze of the IU Med School including Eskenazi (which some people are still tempted to leave breadcrumbs to find their way around) and Indianapolis in general They are interested in checking out interesting restaurants and local brews
His arrival helps round out the department since now not only do we have a faculty member with an appreciation for balloon animals and someone with the middle initial I (stands for Idun) but he promises to play a more eclectic range of music than Chisholm (if possible) while he works Paul is an EM physician with an interest in pain and research Indianapolis is a place he should find plenty of both
The Perfect PoemBy Barbara Salomon
The perfect ED poem might beA symphony written by a madman
Performed by an orchestra in chaos
Mrs Kantowitz lost for 5 hoursIn the CT scan suite
Returns to ask ldquoWhat happenedrdquoAnd receives little answers
The shackled addict of room 13Heated with gin angry at GodSpits on the nursing student
Who learns Never lean in too closeMr Bennett repeats the
Gettysburg addressFrom grade school memoryHis current address lost in
cobwebsIf only Roosevelt really was
PresidentThe man could be released
The pirouettes of resuscitationThe team performing injecting
improvisingMovements constant unstrained
Done out of drill and habitRehearsed
How is it on any given nightAt any given hour
Such a collection of humanityDescends effortlessly faithfully
As if there were cures at allEloquence waits for admission
Tonightrsquos poem stinks and bleedsIt has a pulse and force
What poet could capture this violence
Or impersonal beautyCreated by sound and fed by
imageErased each day with new
charactersThe lost epic of a motherrsquos eyes
Her son shot by strangersWritten again by the baby
Born too soonToo fast in the backseat
No time to recite the rhymeOr parse the meter
The perfect ED poem is written sung
And destroyed every nightBy the hours of the clock

I hear you had an unusual childhood
I grew up all over but mostly in southern Mexico in the state of Chiapas This meant growing up without running water electricity or indoor plumbing My mom homeschooled me and as part of this would send me outside with orders like ldquoFind ten different bugs and categorize themrdquo
What brought you to Chiapas
My parents worked for the Wycliffe organization whose goal is to create a written language for indigenous groups so that people can read the Bible in their own language My parents worked with the Chientec in Mexico My father is a linguist and mom was a nurse She did a lot of clinic work down there So I picked up phrases in Chinentec like ldquodo you have diarrhea ldquo When did you returned to the states
I went to high school in Texas then a liberal arts college in Tennessee I started out a Chemistry and Biology major then switched to Chemistry and English because I decided I was going to be a famous writer In fact I started Grad school in creative writing But as you know plans change Jody and I were expecting our first child so I put grad school on hold to get a real job On advice of my father we went out to California and I started working for a software company
Was this during the boom
Yes I was there for the high times and low times I moved out there in 1997 I worked for Oracle for a bit and then I was in at the ground level for a company called Semio I was the 5th employee in what would become a 150-person company We were working with natural language processing software We looked at how computers understand English language text and make sense of it I was an analyzer who grew into a product developer I was a designer not a programmer
So yoursquore in Silicon Valley and times are good
It was great until the bust Semio went belly up--me and everyone else were looking for work I was out of work for eight months The rumor going around was that U-Haul was paying people to drive their trucks back to the Bay area because so many people were leaving It was a desperate time and I needed something more stable We stayed with my wifersquos family in Brownsburg and I started studying for the MCATs I applied to Medical Schools and got accepted at the University of Michigan Around the same time one of the original investors in Semio asked that I join him in a new start up As if Med School wasnrsquot enough and proving lrsquom a glutton for punishment I collaborated with him on the new company Tablus which ultimately became successful
JOSH MUGELETHE PATH LESS TRAVELED IN EMERGENCY MEDICINE
McDonald called this new area the ER-ICU for the acute people So we trained the nurses I even had a doctor shadow me so he could see triage in action I could see ldquolight bulbsrdquo coming on At the end of the week we had everything set up Dr McDonald had a big ribbon cutting ceremony with the national newspaper and radio there
Q Their Emergency Department is busy
A They have a huge volume of patients and lots of trauma The country is becoming modernized One of the ways you can see that is by all the young men who buy motorcycles or as they call them pin-pins Apparently the drivers constantly honk or pin so they are called pin-pins Traffic is horrendous and many people get injured riding pin-pins
Q Tell me about your wife and daughters
I met my wife Jody in college She grew up in Brownsburg and currently manages a group of editors at an Internet marketing
company She has written a couple of young adult novels and has an agent shopping them around Shersquos now writing the third Irsquom proud of her Jody has researched the publishing houses and understands much more about the business than I ever did My older daughter Eleanor is in the 10th grade at Herron High School She is an excellent violinist and we are excited that shersquos a member of the New World Youth Symphony You can go to wwwnwysoorg for upcoming performance dates Like her mom Eleanor is a writer My younger daughter is Magnolia and at 12 shersquos
has a little more of a typical teenager experience than her sister Shersquos going to a Washington township school and then will go to Herron High School
Q As someone who has been all over the world is there an Indy restaurant yoursquod recommend
A My favorite hole in the wall is a place called Guatalinda It is on Layfayette Rd south of 34th It has the best tacos and papusas For me it is comfort food When we lived in Michigan there was no real Mexican food My mom would make a bunch of tamales pack them in dry ice and ship them up to me That and bottles of Mexican Coke
Q + A with JOSH MUGELEQ How did you end up in Emergency Medicine
A For me it was an obvious choice I hate being bored I need constant stimulation That is a big fear in my life to be bored and run out of things to do I would hate a job where 20 years down the road I was doing the same thing everyday I just couldnrsquot do that
Q What was your decider to come to IUSM
A The program Carey Chisholm sold me on it He insisted that he would push us He said it wouldnrsquot be easy but we would be better doctors I wasnrsquot planning on living in Indy when we lived in California we had a view of the ocean from our apartment but I was willing to come here for three years as long as we didnrsquot have to live in the suburbs We enjoy living downtown
Q How did the disaster medicine fellowship come about
I like finding my own niche and something I can do on my own After discussions with Dan OrsquoDonnell he and I came up with the idea of Disaster Medicine This allowed me to stay with the program and find some unique opportunities Through Dan OrsquoDonnell Irsquove come to know about MESH (a local coalition focused on disaster management and surge control) Within Indianapolis this has helped me connect with people and learn about projects and disaster management Skills you want to have but hope you never use For example MESH and the Mass Casualty Response Team have created a protocol to help coordinate things like routing patients to different hospitals in Indianapolis
Q Does this fellowship have you traveling
A Last fall I went to Africa with the CEO of MESH to help get a new project started in Liberia We are treating it as a resource-depleted environment One of the goals of my year in the disaster medicine was to find a resource-depleted environment where they would let us work with them to develop a disaster preparedness system We made contact with Dr McDonald (a PhD from the IU School of Nursing) the CEO of a hospital in Monrovia Liberia She invited us to come for a weeklong fact-
finding tour When I go back in June for a month we will pursue possible projects and collaborations Monroviarsquos JFK Memorial Hospital is the referral hospital for the entire nation This hospital does not have consistently running water they have regular electrical outages weekly fires and regular floods Most of the hospital is not air-conditioned Resource-depleted hospital is really the best way to describe it They lack basic things like gloves tape alcohol wipes and hand sanitizer I will have to figure out what I can take with me when I go back there in June
Q Does JFK Hospital have the equipment they need
A Actually that was one thing we were able to help with on our scouting mission Dr McDonald wanted us to look at the area set aside for acute care She had some donated beds and equipment--but no one had ever trained them on how to use the monitors or ventilators
For example one of our first patients was a woman with congestive heart failure We were pumping her full of nitro and watching the monitor to see her 02 stats go upmdashbut they didnrsquot That made us realize that the oxygen machine she was hooked to was the problem With a switch to another machine she pinked up Proper use of the monitor was the game changer that helped save her life and they hadnrsquot been able to use them before
Q You worked with the local doctors
A Yes The doctors and nurses had good medical training but no one had ever explained the acute care process to them They needed help with the logistics Dr

IUEM welcomes Paul MuseyOnce he got the news in March that the chances for snow were getting down to a manageable level Paul Musey moved his family to Indianapolis This new faculty member comes to us from Charlotte NCmdashafter being born raised and going to medical school in Atlanta GA Please try to help guide him in the maze of the IU Med School including Eskenazi (which some people are still tempted to leave breadcrumbs to find their way around) and Indianapolis in general They are interested in checking out interesting restaurants and local brews
His arrival helps round out the department since now not only do we have a faculty member with an appreciation for balloon animals and someone with the middle initial I (stands for Idun) but he promises to play a more eclectic range of music than Chisholm (if possible) while he works Paul is an EM physician with an interest in pain and research Indianapolis is a place he should find plenty of both
The Perfect PoemBy Barbara Salomon
The perfect ED poem might beA symphony written by a madman
Performed by an orchestra in chaos
Mrs Kantowitz lost for 5 hoursIn the CT scan suite
Returns to ask ldquoWhat happenedrdquoAnd receives little answers
The shackled addict of room 13Heated with gin angry at GodSpits on the nursing student
Who learns Never lean in too closeMr Bennett repeats the
Gettysburg addressFrom grade school memoryHis current address lost in
cobwebsIf only Roosevelt really was
PresidentThe man could be released
The pirouettes of resuscitationThe team performing injecting
improvisingMovements constant unstrained
Done out of drill and habitRehearsed
How is it on any given nightAt any given hour
Such a collection of humanityDescends effortlessly faithfully
As if there were cures at allEloquence waits for admission
Tonightrsquos poem stinks and bleedsIt has a pulse and force
What poet could capture this violence
Or impersonal beautyCreated by sound and fed by
imageErased each day with new
charactersThe lost epic of a motherrsquos eyes
Her son shot by strangersWritten again by the baby
Born too soonToo fast in the backseat
No time to recite the rhymeOr parse the meter
The perfect ED poem is written sung
And destroyed every nightBy the hours of the clock

IUEM welcomes Paul MuseyOnce he got the news in March that the chances for snow were getting down to a manageable level Paul Musey moved his family to Indianapolis This new faculty member comes to us from Charlotte NCmdashafter being born raised and going to medical school in Atlanta GA Please try to help guide him in the maze of the IU Med School including Eskenazi (which some people are still tempted to leave breadcrumbs to find their way around) and Indianapolis in general They are interested in checking out interesting restaurants and local brews
His arrival helps round out the department since now not only do we have a faculty member with an appreciation for balloon animals and someone with the middle initial I (stands for Idun) but he promises to play a more eclectic range of music than Chisholm (if possible) while he works Paul is an EM physician with an interest in pain and research Indianapolis is a place he should find plenty of both
The Perfect PoemBy Barbara Salomon
The perfect ED poem might beA symphony written by a madman
Performed by an orchestra in chaos
Mrs Kantowitz lost for 5 hoursIn the CT scan suite
Returns to ask ldquoWhat happenedrdquoAnd receives little answers
The shackled addict of room 13Heated with gin angry at GodSpits on the nursing student
Who learns Never lean in too closeMr Bennett repeats the
Gettysburg addressFrom grade school memoryHis current address lost in
cobwebsIf only Roosevelt really was
PresidentThe man could be released
The pirouettes of resuscitationThe team performing injecting
improvisingMovements constant unstrained
Done out of drill and habitRehearsed
How is it on any given nightAt any given hour
Such a collection of humanityDescends effortlessly faithfully
As if there were cures at allEloquence waits for admission
Tonightrsquos poem stinks and bleedsIt has a pulse and force
What poet could capture this violence
Or impersonal beautyCreated by sound and fed by
imageErased each day with new
charactersThe lost epic of a motherrsquos eyes
Her son shot by strangersWritten again by the baby
Born too soonToo fast in the backseat
No time to recite the rhymeOr parse the meter
The perfect ED poem is written sung
And destroyed every nightBy the hours of the clock

Our Next LeadERsWe would like to thank you all very much for electing us to be chiefs for next year It is going to be a true honor to serve all of you We really appreciate everyone who stepped up and ran as well Anyone of them would have been an amazing chief Thank you all once again Please let us know if we can do anything for you Your Up Coming ChiefsKaty Ash Emily Fitz Alex Rhea Matt Rutz Beth Beard Kyle Yoder
IUEM welcomes Paul MuseyOnce he got the news in March that the chances for snow were getting down to a manageable level Paul Musey moved his family to Indianapolis This new faculty member comes to us from Charlotte NCmdashafter being born raised and going to medical school in Atlanta GA Please try to help guide him in the maze of the IU Med School including Eskenazi (which some people are still tempted to leave breadcrumbs to find their way around) and Indianapolis in general They are interested in checking out interesting restaurants and local brews
His arrival helps round out the department since now not only do we have a faculty member with an appreciation for balloon animals and someone with the middle initial I (stands for Idun) but he promises to play a more eclectic range of music than Chisholm (if possible) while he works Paul is an EM physician with an interest in pain and research Indianapolis is a place he should find plenty of both
The Perfect PoemBy Barbara Salomon
The perfect ED poem might beA symphony written by a madman
Performed by an orchestra in chaos
Mrs Kantowitz lost for 5 hoursIn the CT scan suite
Returns to ask ldquoWhat happenedrdquoAnd receives little answers
The shackled addict of room 13Heated with gin angry at GodSpits on the nursing student
Who learns Never lean in too closeMr Bennett repeats the
Gettysburg addressFrom grade school memoryHis current address lost in
cobwebsIf only Roosevelt really was
PresidentThe man could be released
The pirouettes of resuscitationThe team performing injecting
improvisingMovements constant unstrained
Done out of drill and habitRehearsed
How is it on any given nightAt any given hour
Such a collection of humanityDescends effortlessly faithfully
As if there were cures at allEloquence waits for admission
Tonightrsquos poem stinks and bleedsIt has a pulse and force
What poet could capture this violence
Or impersonal beautyCreated by sound and fed by
imageErased each day with new
charactersThe lost epic of a motherrsquos eyes
Her son shot by strangersWritten again by the baby
Born too soonToo fast in the backseat
No time to recite the rhymeOr parse the meter
The perfect ED poem is written sung
And destroyed every nightBy the hours of the clock

IUEM welcomes Paul MuseyOnce he got the news in March that the chances for snow were getting down to a manageable level Paul Musey moved his family to Indianapolis This new faculty member comes to us from Charlotte NCmdashafter being born raised and going to medical school in Atlanta GA Please try to help guide him in the maze of the IU Med School including Eskenazi (which some people are still tempted to leave breadcrumbs to find their way around) and Indianapolis in general They are interested in checking out interesting restaurants and local brews
His arrival helps round out the department since now not only do we have a faculty member with an appreciation for balloon animals and someone with the middle initial I (stands for Idun) but he promises to play a more eclectic range of music than Chisholm (if possible) while he works Paul is an EM physician with an interest in pain and research Indianapolis is a place he should find plenty of both
The Perfect PoemBy Barbara Salomon
The perfect ED poem might beA symphony written by a madman
Performed by an orchestra in chaos
Mrs Kantowitz lost for 5 hoursIn the CT scan suite
Returns to ask ldquoWhat happenedrdquoAnd receives little answers
The shackled addict of room 13Heated with gin angry at GodSpits on the nursing student
Who learns Never lean in too closeMr Bennett repeats the
Gettysburg addressFrom grade school memoryHis current address lost in
cobwebsIf only Roosevelt really was
PresidentThe man could be released
The pirouettes of resuscitationThe team performing injecting
improvisingMovements constant unstrained
Done out of drill and habitRehearsed
How is it on any given nightAt any given hour
Such a collection of humanityDescends effortlessly faithfully
As if there were cures at allEloquence waits for admission
Tonightrsquos poem stinks and bleedsIt has a pulse and force
What poet could capture this violence
Or impersonal beautyCreated by sound and fed by
imageErased each day with new
charactersThe lost epic of a motherrsquos eyes
Her son shot by strangersWritten again by the baby
Born too soonToo fast in the backseat
No time to recite the rhymeOr parse the meter
The perfect ED poem is written sung
And destroyed every nightBy the hours of the clock

IUEM welcomes Paul MuseyOnce he got the news in March that the chances for snow were getting down to a manageable level Paul Musey moved his family to Indianapolis This new faculty member comes to us from Charlotte NCmdashafter being born raised and going to medical school in Atlanta GA Please try to help guide him in the maze of the IU Med School including Eskenazi (which some people are still tempted to leave breadcrumbs to find their way around) and Indianapolis in general They are interested in checking out interesting restaurants and local brews
His arrival helps round out the department since now not only do we have a faculty member with an appreciation for balloon animals and someone with the middle initial I (stands for Idun) but he promises to play a more eclectic range of music than Chisholm (if possible) while he works Paul is an EM physician with an interest in pain and research Indianapolis is a place he should find plenty of both
The Perfect PoemBy Barbara Salomon
The perfect ED poem might beA symphony written by a madman
Performed by an orchestra in chaos
Mrs Kantowitz lost for 5 hoursIn the CT scan suite
Returns to ask ldquoWhat happenedrdquoAnd receives little answers
The shackled addict of room 13Heated with gin angry at GodSpits on the nursing student
Who learns Never lean in too closeMr Bennett repeats the
Gettysburg addressFrom grade school memoryHis current address lost in
cobwebsIf only Roosevelt really was
PresidentThe man could be released
The pirouettes of resuscitationThe team performing injecting
improvisingMovements constant unstrained
Done out of drill and habitRehearsed
How is it on any given nightAt any given hour
Such a collection of humanityDescends effortlessly faithfully
As if there were cures at allEloquence waits for admission
Tonightrsquos poem stinks and bleedsIt has a pulse and force
What poet could capture this violence
Or impersonal beautyCreated by sound and fed by
imageErased each day with new
charactersThe lost epic of a motherrsquos eyes
Her son shot by strangersWritten again by the baby
Born too soonToo fast in the backseat
No time to recite the rhymeOr parse the meter
The perfect ED poem is written sung
And destroyed every nightBy the hours of the clock
