A patient on inpatient hospice told our music therapist that he's been craving Twinkies and actually hallucinated that her guitar was one! Of course, she went out to get him a box. During these crazy times, let's take a moment to acknowledge that #kindnessmatters. @3wishesprogram.bsky.social

Wildfires are strongly associated with increased exacerbations of preexisting COPD and Asthma, with greater chances of ED & Hospital Admissions. Children, the elderly, women, and people occupationally exposed are at higher risk. And wildfires will only increase in frequency due to climate change.

So much this. People don't realise how much of hospital medicine is getting people OFF unnecessary drugs due to the side-effects and keeping the helpful ones going.

NYE in the ER always hurts my heart because we run traumas on people in the nicest clothes, whose evenings started with such excitement and promise. No one plans to be with us, but you can plan to avoid us: public transit ride share designated sober driver talk to your teens about their plans

Over 10 years ago an established trauma surgeon told me “trauma is primarily a psychiatric condition” I’ve thought about that often since. About where his is right and wrong(or offensive) Thoughts, #medsky ?

I put on a t-shirt today that I can definitely place purchase in the mid-90s (now 30 years ago)! It made me think about how we discard clothes too soon, and how maybe I don’t discard clothes soon enough.

Saw someone upbraiding someone else for having a hobby while the world is on fire, and, my friends: 1. The world is ever on fire, this is today's conflagration; 2. If you don't find time for rest and joy the fire will consume you; 3. Don't let people shame you for being an entire human.

It took four days from submission to publication, and nearly five years from publication to retraction. After campaigning by many, many scientists, and an investigation by Elsevier, an infamous paper on hydroxychloroquine as a COVID-19 treatment has been retracted. 🧪 www.science.org/content/arti...

A Uniquely American Public Health Crisis ▪️ 2 dead, 6 injured. ▪️ Shooter: 15 years old. ▪️ 911 call made by a second grader. Gun violence is the leading cause of death for children & adolescents in U.S. This is not normal. It is not acceptable. We owe our children more than thoughts and prayers.

I had an interesting encounter with vaccine hesitant parents recently. Their babe was old enough to be receiving their 3rd set of infant vaccines but had gotten none to date. But they brought him in for a health check. I took a deep breath #medsky #primarycare #vaccines 🧵

It’s surprising this hasn’t received more attention, but a breathtaking 50ft sculpture, Dignity, was recently unveiled in South Dakota. Created by artist Dale Lamphere, this incredible piece honors the women of the Sioux Nation and their enduring strength, grace, and resilience.

I've seen a child with tetanus, I've treated near fatal infections after chicken pox, and I've pronounced children dead from COVID whose parents refused to have them vaccinated. We have lost our minds... and are about to lose so many of our precious children.
