Cool things about @MCWEmerMed : tracks that you can take longitudinally during your residency experience. Cooler things: all the docs on the overnight shift either being directors of the social EM track, alumni or current residents of the track 😉🩷 #socialEM #FemInEM

Today’s affirmative action SCOTUS decision undermines decades of progress. Diversity is vital to health care, and this ruling deals a serious blow to our goal of increasing med career opportunities for historically marginalized people. spr.ly/6014PD92K
Congratulations to @TyJTurner on his resident based, Excellence in Ultrasound award and to @pdrayna for his teaching award! We are lucky to have such great people in #POCUS leading by example! 🎓🏆
So well deserved @KJMcGurk
Truly honored to have received this from the graduating residents @MCWEmerMed. It remains a privilege to work with such an incredible group.
Between 2005 & 2020, the US gained 31% more Level I/II trauma centers. Yet, @UVMLarnerMed researchers estimate that resulted in only a 6.9% increase in access to this essential care. Further, this access may not be distributed equitably across the nation journals.lww.com/jtrauma/Fullte…
Good take away from conference today @zummie
One pearl of wisdom from this morning conference hour on imposter syndrome
Today I visited the EMS division at Milwaukee County to recognize the service of these #changemakers and to proclaim the week of May 21, 2023 as Emergency Medical Services Provider Appreciation Week.
Another new moment as PD: signing documents with an achival pen. Feels very official.
Take a look at the latest publication by our very own Dr. Sydney Timmer-Murillo et al. on Health disparities following firearm violence. annals.org/aim/article/do…
Female EM physicians leave 12 years (!!) sooner than male counterparts.
Early disproportionate attrition of women EM physicians is critical to address because: 💧 failure to plug leaky leadership pipeline widens disparities 💪 adversely impacts workforce 🏥 bad for patient care- representation matters! @AWAEM @SAEMonline #SAEM23 @camerongettel
