Women in medicine:
- Earn less.
- Are less likely to be in leadership.
- Have fewer research opportunities.
- Spend 8.5 hours more per week on domestic responsibilities.
Yet, they spend more time with patients and provide better care.
The double standard needs to END.

I’ve learned a lot helping my family get my dad into hospice but one of the biggest realizations I’ve had is that our country is facing a geriatric financial time bomb. It is absolutely insane how much elder care costs. For my family if we were to have someone 24/7 it’s $450k a year

med students—don’t let your perceived archetype of a field prevent you from doing what you love
in med school I loved emergency medicine but was worried I didn’t fit in with the archetype of “adrenaline-loving thrill seekers” bc I was a dork who sang showtunes to their cat

New data: The suicide risk for female physicians is 76% higher than the general population.
Women in medicine need your support. We need reasonable workloads, adequate support, respect from colleagues, equitable pay, & work environments absent of discrimination & harassment.

When framing employee performance issue, ask yourself, is this a:
1. skill problem? (lack of expertise)
2. hill problem? (difficult task)
3. will problem? (attitude, not aptitude)
Strong managers find the root cause for low performance and make corrections.

"Never-words are conversation stoppers". This is an excellent article, probing the use of language and its impact on patients, families & caregivers.
My friends and I think a lot about what language to use with seriously ill patients and how it impacts healing. Sometimes we write about it for @MayoProceedings ❤️🩹@ProfLenBerry @gfgrafton

Yes it was, Pete. And we aren’t going back.
