On my overnight ED call yesterday, more than 50% of the patients I cared for were Spanish speaking only. Being able to bypass the need for an interpreter streamlined their care and helped create quick rapport. Better language access leads to better health outcomes!
Excited for future EM applicants if they do move forward away from Eras! If it entails more affordable applications and easier process, it will really help applicants who may not have the financial assistance that others may have the luxury for!!!!
In my post-ERAS submission pre-Interview state, I have started pushing myself to do new experiences. Today, I chose to try rock climbing and my finger and forearm muscles are ON FIRE!!!!
Im on Day 2 of no clinical rotations in 4th year and I am starting to understand why everyone said they loved M4 year like I can see my parents and friends and exercise multiple times like this is amazing😭
Finished my Last Sub-I and on my way back to KC to prep for the next few months! So thankful for U of C for having such an amazing program and integrating us into their busy workflow☺️
