Simone Rae chairing the #racma2022 session on Diversity and Inclusion: Belonging is also important. - *Diversity* is having a seat at the table. - *Inclusion* is having a voice. - *Belonging* is having that voice listened to.

Dr Dinesh Palipana tells #racma2022 "Medical Leaders need to be represented at the political level & within big corporates to influence change to flow back to health system. It's not about how different we are, it's about what unites us." #inclusion #diversity #medicalleaders

FRACMA Dr Peter Jansen says diverity wins. "Organisations do better with diverse teams. We need to start privileging things we haven't before. It is much easier than you think." RACMA 2022 - Equity and Access, Healthcare for All. #racma2022 #inclusion #diversity #medicalleaders

100% endorse. In 2022 it's difficult to justify not having 24/7 access to basic echocardiography in all acute settings.

#ICEM22 Dr Vincent Atua - the reality of resource stewardship in LMICs

Powerful final slide from Dr Vincent Atua at the Resource Stewardship session @ICEM2022 #ICEM22 Speaks to healthcare worker wellbeing as well… you are only human.

Laryngotracheal injuries need specific soft tissue CT of neck, not seen well on CT C spine protocol. Consider nasoendoscopy. #ICEM22 #trauma

@DrSimonCraig @annecreaton The Anaesthesia in Developing Countries course does a great job at emphasizing why “helpful” donations are actually incredibly problematic … https://t.co/TZrB3vnl8f credit quote to Robert Neighbour

#ICEM22 Dr Vincent Atua reminds us that many health facilities in LMIC lack basic equipment for emergency care like a laryngoscope, oxygen and monitors. But may have draws full of donated items like ‘LMAs of the wrong sizes’

It wouldnt be a waste of your resources because you would’ve: 1.Controled your narrative 2.Created allies in other specialities. 3.Equiped them with correct skills and mindset to deal with emergencies. #ICEM22
