As health-care delivery becomes more complex — through implementing new technology and increasingly specialized doctors who depend on each other — physicians will have to adapt, writes medical student Leah Sarah Peer. April 27, 2022 at 01:00AM | By: Leah Sarah Peer …

“🇨🇦 doctors spend 18.5 million hours per year on unnecessary administrative work — the equivalent of more than 55 million patient visits — a report published Monday by the Canadian Federation of Independent Business says.” #TakeBackHealthcare #cdnpoli globalnews.ca/news/9446155/c…

Question for Canadians: what did you learn in school about treaties with Indigenous nations?
A once-in-a-lifetime experience happened to my twin sister today & I thought you all may find it pretty breathtaking & beautiful too! 🫶
Prescription Hope: Peer Medical Chronicles by Leah Sarah Peer peermedicalchronicles.com/2022/12/29/pre…
On my first day 👩🏻⚕️ when taking over patients I ask every patient ➡️ “What is your understanding of why you are in the hospital and what we are doing for you?” An absolute MUST for assessing understanding, clearing up miscommunications, finding what is important to patients.
I was trained by traditional internists like Dr. Ho Ping Kong and remain pretty obsessive about physical examinations. On rounds today, I was reminded why listening to a patient’s concerns and examining them carefully is so important. Medicine is both art & science.
Need #Podcast help for #Accessibility in my class - a couple of the podcasts I want to include don't have a transcription. Is there a *free* way to have some software or tool listen to the podcast and transcribe it?
Two-Spirit (trans) people predate MAGA and Christianity and Elon Musk in North America by thousands of years — THEY held an important status within Indigenous communities — and the Lakota considered THEM sacred beings. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
This Christmas please don’t say we can’t afford housing for all. We can no longer afford the cruelty of the status quo. A month in provincial jail costs: $9,400 Month in hospital: $20,100 Month in shelter: $6,600 Social housing per month: $2,500 Housing is a human right.
The longer I work in psychiatry, the more & more I'm reminded that poverty is one of the most harmful factors (if not the most harmful factor) affecting peoples' mental health.

@KurtDelay @cooleyabigailm Or having separate family enterprises to fund such endeavors? The weird thing is that adcomms may say they want business/entrepreneurs but they will still be ageist. What they might mean is they want medical students with privileged backgrounds to more easily build more prestige
