Great morning with BU SRS and @The_BMC participating in @thewinterwalk which raises awareness and funds to end homelessness. @tcharise1 @Khuatyy @BUSurgEquity @BUMedicine @MeganJaneway

🚨Check out a new paper from @SurgicalEquity co-founder @MeganJaneway! Victims of violent injury are systematically declined from recommended rehabilitation programs due to the nature of their injury - policy is needed to protect access to care!

this is the acceptance speech that got a Palestinian Nurse, Hesen Jabr, fired from NYU Langone. she was fired for honoring her own Palestinian heritage & extending her heart towards the mothers who are suffering in Gaza.

Our very own Dr. @CMTorres_MD leading the way in bringing whole blood to patients in the prehospital setting. Great work!

Dec. we became the 1st prehospital whole blood program & ground EMS field transfusion in MA with partners in law enforcement. Today we’ve trained a unique group of paramedics to provide for civilians. @S_Theodore_MD @MeganJaneway @The_BMC @BMCSurgery @TraceyDechert @BillGalvin4MA

Excellent grand rounds @BMCSurgery by visiting professor @wbalrefaie of @CreightonSurg @Creighton discussing disparities in rural surgery! Key take-aways for urban-rural partnerships:
➡️Listen and learn
➡️Let rural parters set the agenda
➡️Collaboration instead of competition

[Megan Janeway @MeganJaneway]

If we can even call this a war...

Please watch- this is the type of work & conversation we need more of in medicine. Less database studies pointing out inequities & more actual work to address real problems in healthcare affecting the most vulnerable. I applaud @refugeehealtha @NEJM @hanjaneway. @SurgicalEquity

[NEJM @NEJM]

In "Health Care on the Edge — Challenges of Refugee Medicine," experts from @refugeehealtha and @HEALAsylum summarize the range of services available to refugees at the U.S.–Mexico border and underscore the importance of taking a holistic approach when providing care. Watch now:

[Megan Janeway @MeganJaneway]

Inspiring work by my sister @hanjaneway, this is a must watch and we need more people doing this work. @refugeehealtha
