Gender Equity and Equality in Emergency Medicine

Building the Gender Equity & Equality framework for Emergency Medicine. The change begins with you.

[Caroline Leech @LeechCaroline]

It’s 2023 and I hear today that people are still telling female trainees they can’t do PHEM if they have (or plan to have) children. I can provide evidence that it’s simply not true. If you hear someone saying this shit, please call them out.

📢 Our team's new work in @AcademicEmerMed shows sobering disparities in EM workforce attrition.

1⃣ Female EM physicians over 12 years younger at the time of attrition vs. male counterparts, with age at attrition decreasing for both genders.

This is from the BMA survey of sexism in medicine. https://t.co/lrf2a7XFZo

It is a disgrace. And just because you haven't seen or experienced any of it does not make the facts less shocking. We all need to read this, reflect and be better. The change starts with me.

@PRIYAMARATHE10 and I explored the training pathways for Emergency Physicians around Europe.

*The result?*
Most countries don't have one, they don't prioritise diversity and so women suffer from getting posts.

*The solution?*
Let's promote less than full time work!

Every single time I tell a stranger that I'm training to be a surgeon, they ask me whether many surgeons are women.

It reminds me how important #WomenInSTEM is.

@clifford0584 @cruncherwax @TJCoats @DrLindaDykes @NIHRresearch @EMergeMedGlobal I suspect this one from the GEE study day.
UK Professors of EM.
4 called Tim, 2 women.
(To note 2 RCEM Associate Professors are women).
Everyone is white though.

[Laura Cottey @lauracottey]

It was brilliant to join this panel today, I have been so fortunate to have many people filling these important roles in my life. This is the 2nd @RCEMevents study day I have attended this year & I have been so inspired by the speakers & topics, what an amazing speciality EM is!

[Dr Sarah Edwards @drsarahedwards]

This is very sad reading....

It's hard enough in life sometimes with out this! I really wish we could unpick why this is. Such a complex issue.

[Taj Hassan @tajekbhassan]

Thanks.
Such a pleasure to join @RCEMevents at @GEE_in_EM day

Well done @PRIYAMARATHE10 for bringing this all together.

Life indeed is a river and about creating momentum to create equality & equity in gender …
And race !

88% of respondents at @RCEMevents Gender Equity day have experienced bullying, undermining or harassment by colleagues.

It's 2021 folks. Time to improve.
