The Code Breathe Initiative with Dr. Joshua Schwarzbaum

Our guest on today’s episode of the Healthcare Experience Matters Podcast is Dr. Joshua Schwarzbaum. He joins us to discuss the “Code Breathe” initiative that he helped develop in the Emergency Department at St. Barnabas Hospital in New York City.

Dr. Schwarzbaum is a board-certified emergency medicine physician with SBH Health System in the Bronx. 

At its essence, the initiative is about taking roughly five minutes a day to sit down as a team of colleagues to breathe and relax. It’s a chance to be mindful in an effort to re-energize and re-focus as a collective group. He provides deep insight for us on today’s episode about this very successful initiative.
