@NateSilver538 I used to teach Bayes theorem and its results still surprise me!

Here’s the type of diagram that usually helps it all make sense for me:

We’re excited to announce the first stamp rendered by Indingenous artist Rico Worl, highlighting an important story to the Native people of the PNW Coast.

@girlziplocked He threw trash out the window. On purpose. Regularly.

This is a total financial and emotional roller coaster #dogecoin #SNL

Back at it again. This is my first time writing about nursing school, and here I share the first time I sat down for a meal with a patient. I’ve been thinking a lot about what else medicine has to teach us. @doximity #MedEd #medtwitter #NurseTwitter

@RealMed3 Not in med school yet but hopefully next fall. I’m first gen in med and had to get my own letters.

@nursekelsey Medipore all day!

@BadHealthAdvice Basically. Judging by how they’re also asking for a sandwich and a remote, probably less.

@ghosthermione @thehouseofpod I mean like the super over-the-top, cheap, tasteless erotic fiction. That to me would be a turn off.

Farewell, Sears, Roebuck and Co., whose mail order catalogs included 400+ styles of kit homes that sold at least 70,000 units between 1908 and 1940.

@thehouseofpod Several really cheap erotic/romance novels. One I could excuse as something a friend lent and they couldn’t really say no. But several?

[Josh Trebach, MD @jtrebach]

When arranging for clothes and a safe place for a patient to be discharged to (after my shift was done), I was told, scathingly-- "this is an ER--you can send this person out to streets."

Sure, I could. But homelessness sucks. And acting like a shitty person sucks too.

Thanks @doximity for publishing my #opmed piece about my experience as a nurse during COVID-19!

@pgyfun I meal prep on my off days. Also got off night shift. Still exhausted at the end of the shift but at least I have enough alterness to shower and walk the dog.

#TipsForNewDocs

A good checklist to ask when you exit a patient's room:

-lights on/off?
-TV on/off?
-where's the tray table go?
-door open/closed?

"Leave it better than you found it" applies to inpatient rounding too!

@mursenarygary @kari_jerge Oh yeah. Losing a bunch of nurses. I attribute it to burnout and Covid.
