One of my main issues with medical training, and in particular the #Match, is the way we are forced into thinking it’s normal, ideal even, to separate from the communities we were born and raised in. A thread on disconnection.

With 3/4 of pediatric hospital beds full, we must act to help kids & health care workers. That’s why both @seattlechildren’s Dr. Sperring and I are calling on @POTUS to declare a public health emergency. Read our Op-Ed here:

A winter with high rates of flu, Respiratory Syncytial Virus or RSV, and COVID could collapse our care system. Prevention is going to be key.

Rounded out the tour at @seattlechildren. Their Psychiatry & Behavioral Medicine Unit serves 3 - 17 year olds in psychiatric crisis. As our mental health crisis continues, the wait list for these beds is long. Working w/ @SecBecerra & partners to do better for our mental health.

Today I learned: 1. Narcan needs to be easily accessible for everyone (including kids) it saves lives 2. I (every pediatrician) needs to complete SAMHSA so I can prescribe Suboxone and learn how to use it properly 3. Our system is failing to identify/prevent/treat kids w/ SUD.

So proud to have been a part of this All-Star team of black female doctors and nurses highlighting our experience for Health Equity Rounds!
This is the dream team. After 4 months of planning, crafting and practicing, we presented @SeattleHER “Black women in healthcare: Our Voices, Our Perspectives”. It’s long overdue, it’s time for y’all to hear our experience 👩🏾⚕️

Currently attending #HealthEquityRounds and learning everything from disparities in mentoring and professional development in healthcare. I am shocked (but also not really) things aren’t that much better in nursing…🤦🏾♀️ #DEI

These are always phenomenal, and today’s was no different. The difference being the unseen emotional labor it takes to talk about your own experiences and how they impact greater systems. Because equity in health and healthcare spaces is personal. Proud to know you all. 🤎
