How about just handing out day passes to everyone in line with proof of season pass purchase. We will pick up later when the line is shorter.

@SaddlebackMaine can you help us with tickets. We bought season passes in April to renew from last year and did our photos/waiver on line. Now I’m waiting in a forever line because we didn’t get an email with a QR code. Can you please help.

What EMR do you use? This could be a game changer for us. Would love to tie this only to orders from our physician in triage.

So proud of these graduates. They have taken wonderful care of the population of Maine over these past 3 years.
Program director Casey MacVane is the current Best Practices Track Chair at #CORDAA22 representing a Maine Med in San Diego!
On our way to #CORDAA22! Can’t wait to catch up with EM educators from around the country. @MMC_EM

Such a great attending. I’m 9 years out and I still think about lessons learned from Dr. Allister. Congrats on this new and important role.

2/2 and personal policy. By purchasing as a resident you are able to insure against a potential future income and have more ability to get the coverage you need. You also lock in a physical at a younger age.

For residents there are some benefits of getting your policy before you graduate. Once you graduate and take a job you have a specific income you can insure against and an insurer will limit the total percentage of your income you can replace with insurance between a work 1/2

Congratulations to my residency @EMRES_MGHBWH colleague @bernardchangMD on his recognition for significant contributions to research and advocacy for wellbeing and provider mental health.
We’ve been bursting to share some news: allow us to introduce our #25Under45 honorees! These young physicians are elevating EM through med-ed, advocacy, research, practice, and the C-suite. Help celebrate this outstanding group! bit.ly/3izzKvu

Great skill for @emresidents to work on. Try 1% lidocaine in an insulin syringe which both improves the experience for the patient and lets you orient yourself in 3 dimensional space between the US image and the vein.

The Maine Vaccination Dashboard maine.gov/covid19/vaccines/d… provides vaccination rate by town. Can @nirav_mainecdc or @MEPublicHealth help explain how many towns in Cumberland County have a 99% vaccination rate. This is great but seems unlikely. What data is being used?
You can walk in for a vaccination at Maine Health’s Scarborough clinic on May 3rd and 4th!
If you are looking for a vaccination appointment, you can now walk in without an appointment to the mobile clinic in Windham. Open today (Tues/Wed/Thur) from 8:30-4:30 pm. You can also call ahead to book an appointment.
1/Starting today, you can get your #COVID19 #vaccine at the mobile clinic in Windham *without* an appointment. The clinic's hours are 8:30AM-4:30PM Tues/Wed/Thur. Walk-in appointments are available on a first come, first serve basis.
Are you a rising MS4 who is #EMBound, #URiM, #BIPOC? @SAEM_ADIEM members have been sharing some remarkable opportunities for scholarships/stipends supporting away rotations. I've collated 11 of them here: docs.google.com/document/d/1… @SNMA @emresidents @AWAEM @SAEMAEUS #Diversity

Keynote on Leadership by the great EM teacher @amalmattu at #CORDAA21 @CORD_EM. Another example of what makes this such a great conference. "When you come to work, be a Tigger!", be the one everyone wants to see arriving for a shift.

Enjoying a great first day at #CORDAA21 @CORD_EM, so many great ideas for how we can improve our training programs and recruit and support more diverse providers to emergency medicine.
