With topics broken into four main categories--bad habits in the stable, correcting ground manners, problems under saddle, and the reluctant traveler--noted rancher and horse book author Heather Smith Thomas dissects each topic by addressing the source of the problem, providing solutions to the behavioral issue, and discussing what to do if the fix doesn''t stick.

Co-rumination involves friends spending a great deal of time encouraging each other to excessively discuss problems, with content being largely negative (Rose, 2002). Co-rumination appears to strengthen the bonds between best friends, while ironically exacerbating internalizing symptoms. Co-rumination is conceptualized as a mutual dyadic process, but little is known about the reciprocity of excessive problem discussion. The balance of college students'' (N = 601) self- and other-focused co-rumination with their best friend was assessed via an online survey. Contrary to expectations, inconsistent and weak evidence was obtained for differentiating self- and other-focused co-rumination, and their balance. Specifically, self- and other-focused co-rumination were highly correlated, similarly correlated with other study variables, and not differentiated in exploratory factor analysis. However, the interaction of self- and other-focused co-rumination in a model including individual characteristics and adjustment yielded differentiated results. Friendship intimacy was associated with self-, but not other-, focused co-rumination. Indicating that balance may matter, anxiety was associated with high self-focused co-rumination in the context of low other-focused co-rumination. Additionally, mean levels of all individual traits (rumination, excessive reassurance seeking, social perspective taking, perfectionism, negative problem orientation) and adjustment variables (anxiety, depression, social anxiety, friendship quality) differed as a function of co-rumination balance, as assessed by a one-item direct measure. The validity and utility of distinguishing self- and other-focused co-rumination is contingent on further exploration with dyadic data and perhaps modified assessment. Rumination and excessive reassurance seeking indicated vulnerability for co-rumination, which appears to be a primarily anxious process.

ASSESSING LONGTERM CHANGE IN THE CULTURE OF INTERPROFESSIONAL COMMUNICATION ON THE SURGICAL WARD SHANG-YEE SANDY YEH, HEATHER SMITH, SEAN BENNETT, JOSHUA GREENBERG, KILEY LACELLE, MAUREEN MCGRATH, PETER GLEN, DAVID CARVER, HUSEIN MOLOO, LARA WILLIAMSIntroduction: In 2014, the general surgery quality improvement team aimed to create a sustainable improvement in communication between nurses and resident physicians on the ward by implementing a change in patient handover and communication methods. Here we summarize the long-term changes in perceived collaboration and communication by nurses and residents following this intervention. Methods: A validated survey assessing perceived communication and collaboration was distributed to general surgery residents and ward nurses before the intervention, 9 months after and 2.5 years after the intervention. The surveys before, 9 months after, and 2.5 years after the intervention were completed by 28, 12, and 20 nurses, respectively, and 21, 15, and 21 residents, respectively. A fisher exact test was used to indicate statistical significance in change of survey results before and after the intervention. Results: Immediately post-intervention, nursesu2019 perceived collaboration with physicians significantly improved (39% pre-intervention, 84% post-intervention, p=0.01). Significantly more nurses felt their input was well received (57% pre-intervention, 92% post-intervention, p=0.01). On the delayed survey, however, only 65% of nurses continued to feel their input well received (p=1.0). The resident group perceived a significant change in how well important issues were communicated between team members (17%pre-intervention, 60% post-intervention, p=0.039). This remained statistically significant two and a half years later (66% delayed post- intervention, p=0.001). Conclusion: Overall, we found significant improvements in communication between nurses and residents 9 months post-intervention. However, these changes were not well preserved over time, particularly as perceived by the nursing staff. This suggests that our current interventions are inadequate to make a sustainable change in communication on the surgical ward. In keeping with the other quality initiatives, implementing a more robust, iterative process of evaluation with root cause analysis may enhance the sustainability of such initiatives in improving the culture of interprofessional communication on the wards.
