Looking forward to welcoming a new batch of EM doctors today #match2022

Look forward to joining @kroussMD, @HyungChoMD, Janette Baxter, & team to discuss our early lessons learned while ingraining equity into event analysis for @NYCHealthSystem #PSAW2022 series. A 🧵 on a few points to consider:

This experience has been hard. Providers and professional orgs must publicly support race explicit health equity work. Its good medicine. @CamaraJones @DrAlethaMaybank @InequityKills @purvishahesq @nycHealthy @DrBrittaniJ @dr_msharma @phillipWGBH https://t.co/mpRJAzWNjK

Looking forward to the #IHIForum for great sessions like A03: From Theory to Impact: Ingraining Health Equity Into Quality and Safety at @NYCHealthSystem on Tues, December 7 featuring @KomalBajajMD, @DocNellCam, @DrEricWei, & Dr. Louis Hart. https://t.co/O0oFwHShWK @TheIHI

How do we do we actually DO equity at @NYCHealthSystem? We apply equity lenses to our PI projects to make sure all groups are making gains. This leads to systematic and systemic equity- health and care for the whole being. #equity #qualityimprovement #healthcare .

Have a listen, check out the paper, and let’s discuss! @LeighMcLeanPhD @AnnieMcLeanDMD @DocNellCam @amhornerEM @lizfernandezmd @lmelville535 @MiriamKulkarni @NYACEP @AcademicEmerMed @SAEMonline @SAEM_ADIEM

Just saw a question on a job application that took my breath away. "How does your privilege serve you in this work? How are you using it to create more equity?" Wow. That is THE question. 👏👏👏

Please join us for this very important discussion today!

Tears ran down my face reading this. How much more evidence do we need to show the individual, collective, systematic, and systemic disregard for black bodies in this country? #SystemicRacism

"Like we're mandatory reporters for child abuse, we need to be mandatory reporters for bias." Such an important message from @DocNellCam at #SAEM21 session "Implicit Bias Is Affecting Your Learners - What You Don't Know Can Hurt Them" @marymclean85 @MiriamKulkarni @SAEMonline
