.@The_BMC must invest in a diverse workforce. That means investing in their residents and ensuring they don't face housing insecurity while taking care of our community. I stand with the @CIRSEIU residents. #ResidentBillOfRights #UnionsForAll

Thank you, Senator @ewarren. Our Residents at @The_BMC are grateful to have your support! #BMCStrong #UnionsForAll ✊

Our Residents at @The_BMC are grateful to have your support, Rep. @AyannaPressley. #BMCStrong #UnionsForAll ✊

As a resident at BMC, I recognize and align with the Boston Medical Center mission. Serving the underserved is a privilege; one that shouldn’t come with the cost of neglecting our own wellness and well-being. @KateWalshCEO @The_BMC @cirseiu #Wellness #HealthcareForAll

[CIR/SEIU @cirseiu]

Thank you, Senator @EdMarkey, for standing with our Resident physicians. Together we can make @the_BMC residency accessible to a diverse physician workforce to serve the diverse #Boston patients we see. #BMCStrong #ResidentsHaveRights @KateWalshCEO

[CIR/SEIU @cirseiu]

Our residents shouldn't need to compete with our patients for affordable housing. @KateWalshCEO and @The_BMC, it's time to take care of the doctors who take care of our community. #BMCStrong #ResidentsHaveRights

[CIR/SEIU @cirseiu]

In order to do that, we want to see an investment in the workforce so that we can continue to recruit and retain a high quality, diverse workforce that is passionate about serving this community. #Boston #BMCStrong #PatientCare #ResidentsHaveRights @KateWalshCEO @The_BMC

[CIR/SEIU @cirseiu]

And, we want to see @the_BMC continue to invest in a diverse workforce by ensuring anyone who wants to practice medicine at BMC can. @KateWalshCEO @BUMedicine @BMCimRES #BMCStrong #ResidentsHaveRights #BMC #Boston (6/7)

@The_BMC has a strong history in the community and with CIR. We want the relationship to continue and grow even stronger. We want to see BMC lead the medical community. #BMCStrong #ResidentsHaveRights (5/7)

[CIR/SEIU @cirseiu]

#Boston has also become one of the most expensive cities in the nation, leaving Resident physicians to take up affordable housing and even experiencing homelessness and housing insecurity while trying to provide the best possible care to Boston residents. #ResidentsHaveRights 4/7

[CIR/SEIU @cirseiu]

In the last 10 years, #Boston and @The_BMC have changed. We are now facing, not only a physician shortage, but a shortage of diverse physicians to meet the needs of our diverse population. #BMCStrong #ResidentsHaveRights (3/7)

[CIR/SEIU @cirseiu]

During this time, the competitiveness of their salaries slipped as the wealthier hospitals in Boston continued to provide their residents with salary increases, while @The_BMC Resident physicians pay stagnated. #BMCStrong #ResidentsHaveRights (2/7)

[CIR/SEIU @cirseiu]

Historically, @The_BMC Residents were always the highest paid in the city. When BMC was under severe financial strain a decade ago, the Resident physicians believed in the BMC mission so much, they willingly took salary freezes along with their colleagues. #BMCStrong (1/7)

[IMQualityAndSafety @safety_im]

As residents, we give our all to support BMC and it’s unique patient population. We hope to see that sentiment shared in return.

Boston is one of the most expensive cities to live in. Stand with @CIRSEIU Residents bargaining to ensure Docs of any background can afford to train at @The_BMC. @BostonCityEM @BMCimRES @KateWalshCEO #ResidentBillofRights #UnionsforAll #meded #FOAMed

Really inspiring start to the IHI National Forum with @ZDoggMD. Health 3.0 can only be possible when great minds and passionate people come together for the betterment of patient care. #IHI30Forum #primarycare #RevolutionizeMedicine #QualityImprovement
