IPFCC is part of INSPIRE, a national effort to advance partnerships b/t healthcare & people w/ lived experience. If you work in a healthcare organization & care about better, more equitable care, we'd love your help completing a brief (<10 min) survey: commonwealthca.qualtrics.com…

The Supreme Court's decision to strike down affirmative action, including in professional schools, like medical and nursing, will have detrimental consequences on Black health for generations to come. This is about life & death for us. Today, we are only 5% of physicians.

The drive to conduct antiracist research has never been stronger.
So, I and my colleagues are proud to share some of our 10 guiding principles for your antiracist research, drawn from our recent article in @JournalSSWR 🧵 1/7

UCSF/ZSFG Emergency Medicine residents have organized a program to allow patients to vote while in the ER, even those on 5150/5250 holds. The program gets the ballot to the pt's bedside, assists them in completing it (if needed) & an on-site secure ballotbox was procured
Amazing
I recently watched "Unseen," a documentary about parent caregivers. They are holding a virtual screening event in November in honor of National Family Caregivers Month. Tickets are $10 & you'll have access for approx 2 weeks. caregiverdoc.com/november/

Hi! My name is Jasmine and I am a PhD student in Counseling and Counselor Education at UNCG! I am recruiting participants for my dissertation study related to Black women’s experiences during pregnancy and childbirth.
COVID restrictions meant I was alone in 2021 while receiving post-procedure care instructions. I was in a post-anesthesia haze & missed crucial info. Family members are important partners in care.

The stakes for the November elections in NC just got a lot higher.
If we give a supermajority to anti-abortion extremists, we will lose abortion access in this state. And if don't send pro-woman candidates to Congress, we will have a federal abortion ban.

I have a message for the women of North Carolina: you still have a legal right to an abortion in our state. North Carolina state law protects women's reproductive freedoms. 1/
I get anxious when I get my BP taken in a drs office (irrational, I know). Had a nurse today who asked, "Would you be willing to let me try something with you?" She led me in guided breathing & got a perfectly normal BP reading. It was so respectful & caring. #PFCC

This traumatized 11-yr-old is far braver than some of the adults who were supposed to keep her safe. 💔
"Miah...wanted to share her story...she says hopefully it can help prevent a tragedy like this from happening to other children."

North Carolina. Our own Lt Gov was scheduled to help “celebrate” the second amendment in TX tomorrow. No idea what his actual plans are now, but I know he won’t be spending his time tomorrow (or any other day) working to make sure my kids can go to school safely. #Vote
“Starting at 2 p.m. local time, Trump will be joined in a celebration of Second Amendment rights by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, Sen. John Cornyn, Sen. Ted Cruz, Rep. Dan Crenshaw, North Carolina Lt. Governor Mark Robinson, and South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem.” nraila.org/articles/20220512…
