But as her due date approached in the summer of 2021, her health improved and those storm clouds seemed to scatter. “It was just too perfect,” said her mother, Shenelle Ball-Green, of those calm, hot weeks. Then, early on July 5, four days shy of her scheduled cesarean section, Ball-Stribling began experiencing complications from preeclampsia, a potentially life-threatening blood pressure disorder. Speeding up to 110 mph, her husband drove her to the nearest hospital 25 miles away from their home in Belzoni, a Mississippi Delta town of about 1,900 people. (Dilworth, 7/20)

Over four months in 2025, a state investigative report found, Sunrise switched Timaloa’s room eight times, the last into one occupied by Attilio Cecchetto, 92, a retired tile installer whose dementia led him to frequently moan, mumble, and yell.

https://www.academia.edu/2997-9196/3/1/10.20935/MHealthWellB8187 Introduction: This study aims to investigate the access to leadership development opportunities among European psychiatric trainees and early career psychiatrists (ECPs) and their perceptions and needs related to leadership skills training. Materials and methods: This is a cross-sectional study using an online survey. The collected data was statistically analyzed using Stata 13, including an ordered probit regression to study the impact of five demographic characteristics of participants on the prioritization of 18 variables of leadership skills and 12 variables of management skills. Results: A total of 119 psychiatry trainees from 31 European countries responded to the study, of which 80 (67.2%) were female. Additionally, 48.7% of participants (n = 58) were general adult psychiatric trainees, and 29.4% (n = 35) were ECPs. Our results show that 63.0% (n = 75) had no access to leadership skills training within their training program. Also, respondents tended to be unsatisfied with the training received. More than half (n = 62, 52.1%) of trainees sought additional leadership and management training outside their program. All the participants recommended that training in leadership skills should be included in a psychiatric training program. The top three most important skills to trainees were “communication”, “teamwork”, and “empathy and cultural sensitivity” regarding leadership skills; and “stress management”, “time management”, and “crisis management” concerning management skills. Conclusions: Our study provides an overview of important gaps in the need, availability, and access to leadership skills training amongst psychiatric trainees and ECPs across Europe. We hope this study will help inform future developments and improvements in leadership skills training for trainees and ECPs across Europe. https://www.academia.edu/2997-9196/3/1/10.20935/MHealthWellB8187 Academia Mental Health and Well-Being Unveiling trauma discourse: narratives, behavior, and support in online communities Scott Appling, Chen Shani, Andrew M.
