Patients that come by ems to the ER and then get transferred out to another hospital is the worst game of telephone I've ever been part of. 🙃😐

If you’re on the fence about whether or not physicians need a union, read this article. The degree to which emergency physicians are getting fucked over by private equity right now is staggering.

Earlier this month an Illinois physician learned her ER as getting a new boss. He called himself "Doctor George." And he was *deeply* unhappy with her failure to do Medicare fraud. A thread on the chaotic collapse of a(nother) private equity ER operator prospect.org/health/2023-07…

It's #EqualPayDay again, and the #PayGap still exists. Female physicians make 2 million less than male colleagues pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34871074/ Women RNs are paid 91c for every dollar earned by men And the disparity is worse for WOC. We need action now. #WIMStrongerTogether

The ACGME is doing a deep dive currently on the standards needed to accredit an EM residency. All of our national groups came together to work on recommendations to "raise the bar" and ensure high standards for residency training. @ACEPNow /6

On what would have been the 50th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, we’re reminded that progress can move backward. And that means we’ve got to recommit to doing our part to protect and expand reproductive rights for families today — and for generations to come.

Women who used marijuana during pregnancy were more likely to give birth to babies who were preterm, had lower birth weight and had a higher rate of birth defects, according to a major study. abcn.ws/3gDAXUI

I’ve reached the point of being a physician in my 30s where I could place an emergent HD cath in a patient with 2 platelets in less time than it takes for me to complete my evening skincare routine/serums.


New(?) thing that makes my eye twitch and makes me feel old...when people in medicine say "emerg". It's ED, ER, EM, or whatever else. But it's never, "emerg". #MedTwitter #EM

Pretty wild how the people who are so against abortion are now telling us repeatedly they have no fucking clue what an abortion is

I was punched in the throat by a patient the other day who subsequently reached for my neck. When I grabbed her arm and pinned it to the stretcher, she threatened to sue me. This all happened because I told her that if she didn't keep her BiPap mask on, she was going to die.

My boyfriend asked me how often I see dead bodies and I’m like every couple of days and he’s like I’ve never seen a dead body. I sometimes forget there are people who’ve never seen death.

Our thoughts are with the emergency physician and nurses who were stabbed on Friday. We urge Congress to swiftly pass legislation to prevent violence in our hospitals. It is unacceptable that care teams working to save lives have to fear for their own. nbclosangeles.com/news/local/att…

Be the doc who the nurses find/text when their family member is coming in.
