@keira_wickberg @DrTomori @nurseholley @LFrancisRN @HollyWSims @sophiekasimow Oh gosh, thank you for sharing your story. That's horrible to hear :( I sometimes label some of my worst work memories as "triage trauma."

@nurseholley @DrTomori @LFrancisRN @HollyWSims @sophiekasimow As a former ER RN, every single person I've worked with had experienced some type of physical workplace violence- It's definitely part of why I left the bedside. Thank you for advocating <3

@DanesthesiaSRNA @DrTomori @LFrancisRN @HollyWSims @sophiekasimow @PennaNurses As a Californian it still blows my mind that safe staffing ratios isn't a nation wide standard. The work is already difficult even with ratios in place!!

@NP_Kylie @DrTomori @LFrancisRN @HollyWSims @sophiekasimow It wasn't until recently that I was made aware of how much red tape there is in the organ transplant world. The sheer level of inequity is so disappointing. This article talks about political ideology influence. #JHSONPolicyF22 https://t.co/oXcE1jzghh

@DrTomori @LFrancisRN @HollyWSims @sophiekasimow Nurses should leverage their expertise to effect change in how the US responds to public health crisis - at the state and federal level. As frontline workers, nurses have invaluable perspective on pandemic response.

@DrTomori @LFrancisRN @HollyWSims @sophiekasimow A3: Social media allows healthcare workers to advocate and inform at a broader level. The unique breadth of social media accessibility provides opportunity for more expansive impact.

@molliefoxrn @DrTomori @LFrancisRN @HollyWSims @sophiekasimow Love this advocacy! Respecting pronouns is so important. I have also had this discussion several times in the workplace and it can be tough but well worth the effort. #JHSONPolicyF22 https://t.co/vCad2tHOPh

@Britni_Kopp @DrTomori @LFrancisRN @HollyWSims @sophiekasimow Hi Britni, I agree that the mental health resources for nurses are insufficient, and the pandemic has added even more psychological strain to the profession. #JHSONPolicyF22 https://t.co/VNC1mvcoKk
