Medicina familiar cerca de casa<\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Un s\u00e1bado por la tarde de septiembre, el Dr. Doug Althouse regres\u00f3 a casa de una competencia de cross country en Minden, Nebraska, donde ayud\u00f3 a brindar asistencia m\u00e9dica a los ni\u00f1os que cruzaban la l\u00ednea de meta. Luce con orgullo el uniforme morado y blanco de los Whippets de Minden High School. El Dr. Althouse es m\u00e9dico de familia en Kearney County Health Services (KCHS).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEs s\u00f3lo una de las cosas que hacemos\u201d, dijo. \u201cTodos colaboramos\u201d.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

El Dr. Althouse creci\u00f3 en Sutton, una ciudad de menos de 1500 habitantes, por lo que entiende que las instalaciones m\u00e9dicas son un componente crucial de cualquier comunidad peque\u00f1a. Para \u00e9l era importante ejercer la medicina cerca de casa. Despu\u00e9s de completar el Programa de Oportunidades de Salud Rural (RHOP) a trav\u00e9s del Wayne State College, luego su doctorado y residencia en Omaha, el Dr. Althouse comenz\u00f3 a ejercer en Minden en 2006.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMe encanta la medicina familiar\u201d, dijo Althouse. \u201cCuido a reci\u00e9n nacidos. Tambi\u00e9n me encargo de personas que tienen m\u00e1s de noventa a\u00f1os. El comienzo y el final de la vida y todo lo que hay entre medio\u201d.  
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Los pacientes dicen que el Dr. Althouse los trata de manera profesional pero con un toque personal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cUna ventaja de estar en una comunidad peque\u00f1a es que realmente puedo establecer relaciones profundas con mis pacientes, lo que me ayuda a cuidarlos, porque puedes abordarlos de una manera m\u00e1s integral cuando los conoces tan bien\u201d, dijo el Dr. Althouse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

El Dr. Althouse continu\u00f3 prestando servicios en Minden hasta 2013. Ese a\u00f1o decidi\u00f3 mudarse a Lincoln para ejercer con un amigo de la facultad de medicina. R\u00e1pidamente aprendi\u00f3 que ejercer en un entorno urbano es muy diferente que hacerlo en un entorno rural. Los pacientes sol\u00edan acudir a centros de atenci\u00f3n de urgencias, salas de emergencia o directamente a subespecialidades como dermatolog\u00eda y ortopedia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSent\u00ed que estaba perdiendo habilidades\u201d, dijo. \u201cRealmente no lo disfrutaba tanto porque no ten\u00eda variedad. En un entorno rural hacemos una variedad de cosas diferentes: procedimientos menores, atenci\u00f3n en salas de emergencia, atenci\u00f3n hospitalaria. No tenemos una subespecializaci\u00f3n en todo y, cuando voy a trabajar todos los d\u00edas, tengo que resolver algunos problemas\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Un a\u00f1o despu\u00e9s de su paso por Lincoln, KCHS le propuso regresar a Minden y \u00e9l acept\u00f3 la oportunidad. Una d\u00e9cada despu\u00e9s, no se arrepiente de la decisi\u00f3n.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

"Creo que para m\u00ed fue importante irme durante un a\u00f1o para poder ver el otro lado. Habiendo visto el otro lado, no cambiar\u00eda la medicina rural por eso, nunca", dijo el Dr. Althouse. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Todos los corredores adolescentes cruzaron la l\u00ednea de meta en buen estado de salud esa ma\u00f1ana de septiembre, y el Dr. Althouse planea seguir apoyando a su comunidad en eventos similares.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMe encanta la salud rural porque me encanta establecer buenas relaciones con mis pacientes, conocerlos personalmente y poder ayudarlos a ellos y a mi comunidad local en todo lo que pueda\u201d.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
