Building a company culture of continuous improvement and investing for the future sounds like an obvious recipe for success, but it is easier said than done. Eric Soederberg, CEO of Sunrise Labs, joined Tyler Kern on this episode of the Sunrise Podcast to talk about the importance of creating the right work environment for continuous improvement and the investments required to bring that culture to life.

“Continuous improvement is an investment,” Soederberg said. “When someone comes into your office and says they have a great idea, but they need to buy something or take a particular class to make it happen, it requires you to say yes.”

Soederberg’s philosophy is to foster an environment where employees are comfortable coming to managers for things they want or need. When Soederberg first came to Sunrise Labs, people were not asking for stuff, and they made do with existing equipment that was sometimes up to 20 years old.

It was important for Soederberg to change the culture into one where people felt they were trusted to make the right decisions to improve their performance and that of the company.

“People are happier when they are working toward a better life for themselves, better processes and more efficient ways of doing things,” Soederberg said.

To make improvements in a company, sometimes taking a risk and going beyond the comfort zone is required. As Soederberg put it, “You can take a risk, and you might fail, or you could not take a risk, and you will fail.”

Total Care's monthly mock codes paid off in a real code blue

Total Care's monthly mock codes paid off in a real code blue

Total Care runs a monthly mock code at each of its freestanding Metroplex emergency rooms, trains BLS, ACLS and PALS in house at no cost to staff, and plans to seek ANCC accreditation so its classes count toward the 20 contact hours Texas requires of nurses. Its ER clinical director credits the drills for a recent code blue the team ran flawlessly.

  • 01Every Total Care emergency room in the Metroplex now runs a mock code every month, and a physician credited the drills in a text after a recent real code blue.
  • 02ANCC accreditation, which Total Care is pursuing so its classes count toward nurses' licenses, carries a $4,950 first-time application fee under the schedule effective January 1, 2026, and requires at least six months of compliance before an organization can apply.
  • 03A study in an American Heart Association journal found that top hospitals for cardiac arrest survival practiced on a fixed schedule and had responsive leadership, and that the near-universal availability of BLS and ACLS training is unlikely to be sufficient on its own.

Why young children die from local anesthetic overdoses in dental offices

Why young children die from local anesthetic overdoses in dental offices

Dentist anesthesiologists Stanley Malamed and Jason Brady told HealthFirst's Health First Talks podcast that fatal local anesthetic overdoses in young dental patients follow a chain of small errors: one-visit treatment plans, plain 3% mepivacaine, four quadrants injected at once and adult cartridges. Oral Health Group estimates LAST at 0.27 cases per 1,000 administrations. Brady caps his anesthetic tray at 90% of the maximum recommended dose.

  • 01Plain 3% mepivacaine is a sound one-quadrant drug for a child; beyond one quadrant, Malamed says epinephrine must be in the cartridge because it holds the drug in the nerve and keeps blood levels down.
  • 02Oral Health Group estimates LAST at about 0.27 cases per 1,000 local anesthetic administrations and reports cardiac signs come before any nervous system warning in about 20% of atypical cases.
  • 03Brady preps a tray holding 90% of the patient's calculated maximum recommended dose so a distracted operator cannot reach past it mid-case.

Suki raises $90M to take its AI scribe beyond note-taking

Suki raises $90M to take its AI scribe beyond note-taking

The funding backs a bet that scribes become clinicians' main AI interface, which changes how health systems evaluate them.

  • 01An ambient scribe already holds the patient context from the visit, and in early testing that context drove clinicians to prefer context-aware UpToDate answers 83% of the time.
  • 02Once a scribe starts answering clinical questions, note accuracy stops being enough to judge it. Regenstrief and Suki are building a framework that could add standardized metrics for answers too.
