Read the latest NAEMSP Position Statement titled “Caring for Transgender and Gender Diverse Prehospital Patients” from @TimHongMD, @AndraMF, @AnjniJoiner, @HaamidtheMD, et al. Another great resource from NAEMSP.

It's Pride Month, and we recently made @TimHongMD's #NAEMSP2023 session, which focuses on caring for LGBTQ patients and highlights major research gaps for LGBTQ+ representation in the EMS workforce, available for free via @ProdigyEMS. Watch it now: link.prodigyems.com/LGBTQ

#EMS clinicians should be aware of recent proposals of discriminatory legislation aimed at the #LGBTQ population. We partnered with @NAEMSP to bring you @TimHongMD's 2023 Annual Meeting presentation: free CE included. link.prodigyems.com/LGBTQ

.@TimHongMD is discussing providing culturally competent care in the prehospital setting as our subspecialty continues to advance in the field of #DEI, focusing on health disparities, evidence-based practice, & recommendations to promote equity, safety, & inclusion. #NAEMSP2023

It did not go unnoticed how many female EMS fellows are here at #GatheringEagles22. Love seeing the representation and the progress that this subspecialty is making! #FemInEMS @PEMEMS @GradyMED1 @DrHeidiAbraham @CourtneyShayMD @AndraMF

So awesome to be at Eagles with these two!

One of the joys of #GatheringEagles22 & previous conferences is getting to meet #EMSFellows, the future of our subspecialty. 81 fellows matched to 70 program in 2021. I don't know the male-female breakdown, but certainly @TimHongMD is outnumbered here! What a great looking group!

Say it louder for the people in the back: equity in #EMS matters and gathering data is crucial. @BenWWeston shares how the Milwaukee system approached this #GatheringEagles22 @EaglesGather

Amazing results from Albuquerque EMS and Dr. Kimberly Pruett on EMS-led post stroke care #GatheringEagles22 @EaglesGather @1stThere1stCare

Under Crisis Standards of Care, EMS is directed to only transport the most severe cases. The criteria for not transporting patients under the age of 60 is below.
Timothy Hong (he/him) retweeted
The Chief Medical Officer at CDPHE reactivated Crisis Standards of Care for Emergency Medical Services (EMS). With many EMS staff out ill and with high demands for patient transports, guidance to the EMS providers on how to best use their services is needed at this time.

This is a brave stance by Steve Simon and the WTA where we put principle above $ and stand up for women everywhere and particularly for Peng Shuai.
Now - what say you, @IOC ?!? #IOC - so far I can barely hear you!!!

What to do now?
1) If not vaxxed, get vaxxed
2) If not boosted & >4-5 mths out, get boosted
3) Get prepared mentally to act more cautiously if Omicron proves to be more infectious, immune-evasive, or both
4) Follow the news & science – will be much clearer in 2-3 wks
5) That's it

Terrified of a second Trump term. But not enough to hide in a bunker.
NEW: Testimonial ad from Trump's Former DHS Chief of Staff @MilesTaylorUSA, declaring his support for Joe Biden and describing Trump's presidency as "terrifying" and "actively doing damage to our security."

The crowd in Philly is...unfathomable? I can’t even guess. Unbelievable.

The Italian College of Anesthesia, Analgesia, Resuscitation and Intensive Care just published the most extraordinary medical document I’ve ever seen.
To help people from Germany to America understand what we’re about to face, I am publishing translated extracts here.
