Time to examine how @UCSFHospitals addresses the needs of our older vulnerable population and their primary care.
Louise Aronson@LouiseAronson2 Mar 2021
In my consult clinic yesterday (because our geri primary care clinic is capped), 2 patients came to see me because they couldn't get primary care @UCSFHospitals. @UCSF builds new hospitals & research centers & shamelessly neglects the care patients prefer to avoid hospitalization

Health care workers’ plea: You can save more lives than we can

Health care workers are not heroes who can save the nation from this virus. You can do far more to stop COVID-19 than we can.

STOP California budget cut on services to older adults! Services like IHSS, adult day health programs, MSSP, etc, keep my patients well so they can stay home, stay independent, and enjoy life. #CareNotCuts #elderjustice @GavinNewsom
