It's a good time to begin the work, if you haven't already, of honest self-assessments to determine how we, as EM docs, play a role in the state we're in as a country. Our specialty, departments, and ERs are not exempt from perpetuating racial disparities. #emergencymedicine

Consider visiting https://t.co/gLsQKon6Qe to assist the Tigrayan people. @DDrishan, her team, and others are doing great work. There continues to be casualties, displaced people, and attacks on needed infrastructures (including hospitals) due to the ongoing war in Tigray.

We're not asking for you to shoot them like you shoot us.
We're asking you to NOT shoot us like you don't shoot them.

Just braided an ICU patient’s hair & I’m on cloud 9. Her granddaughter who would braid her hair can’t come visit. Seeing her perk up made my heart swell. I’m grateful that part of being a doctor today meant giving the gift of conrows! #ICUChristmas #EmergencyMedicine

If you didn’t already realize our house of medicine needs to do its own introspection, the largest emergency medicine doc group on FB is kicking out and blocking multiple POC for even asking that the issue of racism is discussed. #medtwitter

[Kimberly D. Manning, MD, MACP @gradydoctor]

I know a lot of folks are wishing everyone would get on to positive things and stop perseverating on racism and the recent killings of unarmed black people.

Trust me—we’ve been wishing that for centuries now. Please allow yourselves to be uncomfortable and disrupted, too.

1/
Have I ever told y’all how much I loooove to give #feedback?

Here’s why:
1. It adds meaning to my work in #MedEd.
2. It honors the learners and the patients.
3. It informs my final evaluations.
4. It improves the learning climate.
5. It's necessary.

*Shout out to #2.

@DrMichelleLin When you speak up when needed, it takes away the “nobody else brought it up” excuse for the next bold warrior. It makes a difference.

Quick correction about the drawing: the T-wave has to be taller than the ENTIRE QRS complex, not just the R-wave; so I would actually not be worried about the T-wave in the drawing; if you can fit the ENTIRE QRS under the T-wave, that's when you worry about ischemia (or hyperK)
