@ScholerinED @olsonplanner They both have such an immense presence, you don't have to see them to know they're there

[Kyle Pendragon, MSN, RN, CEN, CPEN @EDNerdKyle]

@ScholerinED And then you sat on it

[Kyle Pendragon, MSN, RN, CEN, CPEN @EDNerdKyle]

@ScholerinED I might still be trolling a little 🙃 just saying the thread clearly look was looking for hot takes and you came out with a lukewarm Gumby answer (boom roasted)

[Kyle Pendragon, MSN, RN, CEN, CPEN @EDNerdKyle]

@ScholerinED What a hot take 😴

Car accidents have a 99.4% survival rate and your chance of getting into any accident on any given day is only 0.007%. Seatbelts - lap diapers really - are for suckers and make it more difficult to take a deep breath. Whenever I see someone wearing one it just makes me so mad.

Its not what walks into the Emergency Department that should terrify you.

Its what you let walk out.

@drannamvaldez @NurseJustinRN @NursePatMacRN The respondents who selected "other" for gender to clarify they are "real women" or "XX" women.... 🤮 how disappointing

[Kyle Pendragon, MSN, RN, CEN, CPEN @EDNerdKyle]

This is a HUGE issue that hospitals need to actively work to combat. We are capable of providing equitable emergency care, and everyone in this country deserves equitable treatment.

@ScholerinED I imagine the psychology is very complicated and like @bee_quick12 said peer pressure is probably part of it.

I think part of it is that human brains aren't good at weighing possible (or even likely) future harm (especially when it's hard to see) against immediate inconveniences
