Fostering a community of Latinas in the Emergency Medicine field

[LatinasInEM @LatinasInEM]

We are looking to foster a community of Latinas in Emergency Medicine and their allies!

Currently Hispanic/Latinx make up ~4% of physicians practicing EM, and Latinas make up just a small percentage of that total. #LatinasInMedcine

Give us a follow and help spread the word.

Happy #nationallatinophysicianday!

Representation matters. Proud and honored to be part of the 2.4% #Latina #physicians in this country and the 1.4% Mexican-American physicians.

Speaking Spanish with my patients is my WHY.

Happy #HispanicHeritageMonth! 🇲🇽 Despite the fact that ~20% of Americans identify as Hispanic/Latino/Latinx, only ~7% of active physicians identify as Hispanic/Latino/Latinx (6% in emergency medicine). Proud to be part of that 6-7%, but we can do better. In the meantime, we sing. @JossAntoinette @EMRES_MGHBWH

[Pilar Ortega @pilarortegamd]
