Don’t leave a young child alone in or near the pool for even a moment—drowning happens quickly. Take 60 seconds to complete the @PoolSafely Pledge to #PreventDrowning bit.ly/2KO3VxG

I always tell the people I mentor: some will say it's not your turn, it's not your time—don't listen.

Hard for 2-year-old to get hyped about going for a walk POD #1 w/fresh sternotomy wound, arterial line, 2 chest bulbs to suction, IJ line & tethered to an IV pole.
Easier to get excited in a cozy coupe car. Whose idea? FAMILY. #ICURehab #PedsCICU #PedsICU

Don't reinvent the wheel! The #A2FBundle is a perfect foundation and shared mental model to get started on #illnessdoesntmeanstillness through interprofessional #icurehab programs.

The Press Secretary just showed a minutes-long video of white policemen smiling & hugging black protestors, stating, “it’s been beautiful to watch”
We are in propaganda state territory folks. Don’t blink. #GeorgeFloyd #DemocracyUnderThreat #blacklivesmatter – at Maryland, USA

Minimal but effective sedation as part of the ABCDEF only works if we have methods to communicate while a patient is intubated.

Dr. Kudchadkar says during her fight with the #coronavirus she had muscle aches and a slight fever but serious issues breathing as well as major fatigue on some days. @wjz her story tonight at 5&6! – at Baltimore, MD

Nurses, doctors, chaplains, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, CRNAs, techs, social workers, and more- all working to give you and your families the very best of themselves in the worst of times. Amidst the chaos, they try. Honor them, and those they care for.
“Nurses Audrey Waters & Julia Hunt were each holding one of Ms. Neutz’s hands as she died. Ms. Waters, 33, had worked overnight but stayed...b/c she & Ms. Hunt had promised the family they wouldn’t let Ms. Neutz be alone.” Nurses are pure love💞 #COVID19

PLEASE help change language used by reporters when patients die in the hospital during this crisis. They DID NOT "die alone". They were surrounded by dedicated staff who fought valiantly for them in their last days, and stood in for family at the end. #wordsmatter @tmprowell

This @NewYorker cover is everything.
A beautiful representation of ALL of us in #healthcare.
We don’t know if she is a #doctor, #nurse, #NP, #PA, #RT, #acutePT, #OT, #pharmacist, #dietitian, #custodian, list goes on.
We just know she’s fighting for the team.

Last week, I scolded a colleague who was in office for non-clinical work- “Go home! We will need you later!!”
They listened & went 🏡 .
I started having symptoms that 🌙 .
If your colleagues are still going in to do non-clinical work, say something. NOW. #covid19 #academia – at Maryland, USA
Every single hospital/academic dept. should MANDATE ALL staff who are not either scheduled to work clinically or leading #covid19 response stay away from #hospital 🏥
There is NO non-clinical work so important to risk losing our #healthcare workforce. #medtwitter
It’s EARLY.
