What if every child who came to the ER got the right care, as quickly as possible, without extra tests or transfers?

ARPA-H PM @LSMayMD joined Grand Rounds at Children’s National to tackle pediatric emergency readiness and unnecessary care. The vision is getting kids to where they need to be with even faster triage when they are critically ill.

All #EPs know #COVID19 increased #antibioticresistant #infections & deaths, but it also pushed #antibioticstewardship to the back burner.

Now #EDs have to help reverse that, say @LSMayMD of @UCDavisHealth & @DrMichaelPulia of @uwsmph. #FOAMed @writergina https://t.co/BQjAZwMekh

Today's ED operations are crumbling. LOS for admitted pts rose 32% from 2019 to 2022. Pts leaving without treatment rose 86% (2.9% to 5.4%). Pts have longer waits, are more likely to leave, and board for long periods after admission. A major cause for this is nursing shortages.

@SF_Red Having cared for a number of high profile VIPs in my former position in DC I agree. Most of the time these people were not asking for special treatment, but their entourage or family members did. I was proud to care for congressmen in rooms next to those without homes

@liliabbo Amazing journey towards a lasting legacy!

@WaelNeurogastro @londyloo My husband did the same to me when we were both interns. Of course he was Q2 call and I was more like Q4

@JarmanAF That is definitely NOT right. Palliative consult to look at options? My mom went straight from inpatient to home hospice. So thankful for our home hospice team.

Simulated disaster exercises are just one way we keep our department prepared to best serve our community in times of need.

Our faculty, residents, nurses, technicians and surgical colleagues displayed amazing teamwork when put through the test!

Our ED has implemented a new program to help our providers prescribe PrEP (Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis) to patients that are at high risk of acquiring HIV.

🧵 below on details of how we are removing barriers to care for these patients who are often otherwise marginalized:

Finally able to offer PrEP to our ED and hospitalized patients

[UC Davis Health Department of Emergency Medicine @UCDavisEM]

This program is a collaboration between @BridgeToTx and PHASE, our department's public health screening program.

Huge s/o to @AimeeMoulin1, @LSMayMD, Becks Wittenberg, PharmD and Tina Ho, PharmD for their incredible work on this project!
