How do we explain to the kids why mommy or daddy can't make it to school events? How should I handle people who think we "have it made" because I'm married to a doctor? Families of physicians face challenges unique to those who share their lives with a doctor. There has never before been a resource specifically designed to help meet those challenges and answer the questions that people who don't s

hare a roof with a doctor don’t fully comprehend. At last…..there’s a magazine for US. Physician Family will be the “go-to” guide for medical families of all ages and provide the kind of support that those of us who’ve chosen to spend our lives with a doctor need. We intend to do that with compassion, humor, practical advice, and a deep understanding of the sacrifices physicians’ families make in order to help the doctors in our lives be the best they can be

Physician Family will be published online three times a year. Our website (www.physicianfamilymedia.org), blog, and active social media presence will help to keep us connected. Please “Like” us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter and Instagram! Each issue of Physician Family will feature a wide assortment of articles focused on the issues and challenges faced by medical families, with special emphasis on the four stages of medical life – medical school, residency and fellowship, active practice, and retirement. At least one article of special interest to each of those four groups will be featured in every issue. Other articles will focus on relationships, health and wellness, work/life balance, financial and legal issues, making a difference, giving back, food, travel, how to enjoy life as a medical family, and much more, all written from the perspective of the medical family. An external publication of the AMA Alliance, Physician Family was created to help the nationwide volunteer organization fulfill its mission to support the families of physicians in all specialties and stages of life. Our potential readership is the family of every M.D. and D.O. and with 850,000 physicians in the United States alone, that’s a lot of medical families! The online publishing platform which will be utilized to distribute Physician Family has the ability to include links, audio, and video, providing a multi-media experience for physician families of every generation. You’ll be able to read and enjoy Physician Family on your desktop, laptop, tablet or phone, anywhere, anytime. Sharing life with a physician is a never-ending journey, marked by change and growth, joys and tears, challenges and victories. For the most part, we can handle it all. But sometimes we need a little extra love and support, and if that need arises when the doctor is on call or in surgery or during office hours or at the hospital, we need to know that there’s someone out there who “gets it.”

So here we are. We “get it.”

Physician Family is here. And we’ll be honored if you’ll let us be part of your journey.

Stay centered - This involves taking time to interact with yourself and your higher power, to live in the present, to relax and enjoy what you are doing at each moment and having an appreciation for the good things in our lives and being grateful for them.

Mindfulness or meditation can help deepen these in our lives. The ability to focus one’s mind and calm oneself are important life skills. We all need some time to regenerate ourselves. How do you center yourself?

Know your hashtags. It can be a challenge on Twitter to pull the conversation together and see what’s being discussed about important healthcare issues. The Healthcare Hashtag Project (http://www.symplur.com/healthcare-hashtags/) is an essential resource
for discovering the hashtags associated with issues impacting medicine as well as the people using them to bring the topics to life. It’s a great tool for finding thought leaders in clinical areas that interest you.

Understand your audience. If curating is your objective, be mindful of the channel you’re using. Unless you’ve set up a Facebook account exclusively for professional use, chances are your audience is largely friends and family — not necessarily the crowd that’s interested in those posts you shared about the newest JAMA study. Twitter and LinkedIn offer better opportunities to share your curated findings with the right audience.

Learn from others — and pass it on. The prominent story format online is the “tips list.” It works so well because its intent is clear: quick, bite-sized nuggets of knowledge. Here’s one — discovered on Twitter — that’s full of great tips about how social media can help you take the next step in your career: (http://www.forbes.com/sites/dailymuse/2015/02/10/45-secret-ways-social-media-can-land-you-a-job/).

As we eagerly await the next issue of Physician Family Alliance in Motion magazine, we want to share an inspirational story from our "Making a Difference" summer 2018 issue. The whole issue is filled with heartwarming and inspirational stories, none more heartwarming than the cover story, written by Chris McGilvery, teacher, physician spouse, AMA Alliance member, and founder of “Give More HUGS", which benefits students in Dominica.

THROWBACK THURSDAY
DOCTORS' DAY MARCH 30
On March 30, 1958, Congress adopted a resolution commemorating March 30 as National Doctors' Day after the movement gained traction in the medical community after its creation in 1933. In 1990, President George H.W. Bush designated National Doctors Day an official day of recognition by the US government.

Tips Tuesday!
We often think of growth as expanding our dreams, goals, and expectations, but in certain seasons of life, growth can be be experienced by reducing expectations of yourself, and others.

Your goals, dreams, and "someday" wishes will still be there, just give yourself grace about what is realistically achievable. Accept help from others, and when your situation changes, you can offer help to others!
