Found this prescription my preceptor wrote from my med school days & I still love it so much. “Read this on a blog somewhere”. Intersection of time, physical health & money = “Gusto” spot. Recognize it, don’t waste it and embrace it. #norepeats#rxforhappy#WorkLifeBalance@UBC

A 30 year old patient presents with a thunderclap headache that started 5 hours ago. What’s the best approach?
Dr. Hale joined Dr. @rajivthava on the EMOttawa Podcast to talk about a great practical approach to these cases: https://t.co/IgftpdSMgT
You can call us racist names. You can send us hateful insults. You can target us with threats. But it won't stop health workers from speaking out EVERY DAY about science, public health & the need for justice for all Canadians. You can’t stop this movement!

And the student becomes the master! So cool to have our former (Chief) residents come back to teach the new crew about airway management, pigtails and chest tubes. See one, do one, teach one anyone? 😎 @emergmedottawa
Beautifully written @benjhuang.
“In this job, you will eventually, inevitably forget how to cry. When that happens, you have to - have to- find your way back”. Thank you for sharing this important reminder with us.
Our @EMResUBC resident @benjhuang won the @CAEP_Docs Penelope Gray-Allan Memorial Award. It was published in @CJEMonline 🎉
Take 2 minutes. Read. Feel. Cry. Reflect.
Our jobs are hard. Thank you @benjhuang for putting words to our lived experiences.

Another Podcast episode hot off the ... mic?
Dr. @rajivthava is really vibing it in this one as he interviews Dr. Hale on a practical approach / workup to the thunderclap headache.
CT? CT-A? LP? What’s the answer? We got you covered:

This is an emergency bigger than any of us can handle— unless we act fast.
This is why >200 Emergency Physicians across Ontario have written a letter to @fordnation@celliottability & Dr. David Williams for additional restrictions and support to protect Ontarians against wave 3.
I’m an ER doctor trained to identify medical emergencies.
Every time a person I��ve identified with an emergency signs out of the ER because they “can’t afford to miss work”...it’s clear: This system isn’t built for workers to thrive, it’s built for workers to barely survive.
ICYMI!
