Thank you to the @TODAYshow for the feature! My quote: "There are literally equations that embed racism (in medicine), and depending on your race, it will impact your care." Equations like the GFR equation are antiquated, but thankfully being fixed. today.com/health/celebrate-b…

US healthcare workers must be prepared to care for incarcerated people. Unfortunately, few of us are taught how to do this. For 19 years, I have answered ethics questions, including re: patients in prison. Here are 7 pieces of ethical advice to protect your patients. 🧵👇

Three years ago we clapped and cheered for our healthcare heroes as they literally risked their lives during a pandemic. Now nurses are forced to strike to seek fair compensation and safer patient-staff ratios. The whiplash is a lot.
