During this installment of We The People: our resident-led Diversity-Equity-Inclusion (DEI) series, Dr. Remberto Rosales delves into the difficulties of undocumented patients in the ED.
We discussed our soon-to-be launched Mentoring Minorities to Medicine (M3) program with Mr. James Jackson, Executive Director for Community Schools in Southfield, MI. APEM will partner with Southfield Public Schools to support minorities interested in medicine.

Either obsessively tracking intake/restricting and losing weight and love how clothes fit but super cranky, or I'm eating every single emotion, gaining weight and hate how I look but otherwise content and fun to be around.
There's no in-between.
The first installment of We The People: our resident-led Diversity-Equity-Inclusion (DEI) series, where we explore various social aspects that influence medical practice and outcomes. For this edition, Dr. Roberson investigates the use of patient race in clinical presentations.
Team building at the retreat: escape the room Detroit (yes the interns beat the faculty), a scavenger hunt around Detroit (congrats Dakka and Kline) and finally furniture building race to put those leadership skills to the test (thanks Bishop for the awesome trophy!)
@amoytheemd Thank you for putting this together!
