I’m on my psychiatry rotation at the moment And Paramedics of Twitter I just want you to know that everyone reads the patient care record you’ve written as well as repeats what is said during ambulance handover to ED. Your assessment from scene matters hugely

You don't have time to NOT learn CPR. It can save a life. We are so thankful for our first responders, but before they arrive you must act and give CPR to increase the odds of survival. Learn how correctly at handsonly.org. #CPR #CPRSavesLives ❤️👏

Less than 3% of physicians are black males. We’re changing the narrative. #Medtwitter #Blackmeninmedicine – at Houston, TX

One of the signs of maturing as an emergency physician is accepting there are situations where more care by me is less useful to the patient than getting them to the right specialist team sooner rather than later. The best paramedics also go through this.

I appeared on ABC news last night for all of 10 seconds. They asked about #fentanyl danger to responders which I dispelled. That part was cut but hopefully helped shape coverage.

Miriam Zinter was outside her house gardening when a comment by a neighbor brought her lovely day to a screeching halt. “Why do you have a ‘Black Lives Matter’ sign on your front lawn when all those people do is kill each other,” her neighbor asked. huffpost.com/entry/black-wom…

Can i ask all paramedics a favour? If a relative, friend or passerby has attempted CPR, can you please advise them how well they did and how they’ve given the patient the best chance of survival. Its a small task for you but it will make a significant difference to them.

Killing Season is out today at bookstores everywhere! Thanks to my patients, my #EMS partners and those in #harmreduction who have showed me the way. Also thanks to @JHUPress and my great agent @DGandBTweets Jane Dystel for their belief in the book and its message of community.
