Words cannot describe how profoundly sad I am to share the news of Dr. Shekinah Elmore's death this week.
Shekinah was a SPECTACULAR human with profound wisdom, an incredible generosity of spirit, & a heart of kindness that lifted us all up.

@MichaelFarrisM1 @JPonnatapura have shown it's feasible in LA #LCSM, I look forward to testing it in #hncsm @wakeforestmed @AtriumHealthWFB

We can't do this anymore. Firearms are the problem.
A murderer can buy a semiautomatic weapon and kill four people an hour later. I can't get Lupron approved to give a patient an hour later.
Everything is wrong and we can't do this anymore.

Did you know Epic can generate a detailed breakdown of usage?
What I’ve learned:
👎 time spent in in-baskets >> my colleagues
🤯 Average 2.8 minutes/message (that adds up!)
👍 98% of visits closed within 1 day
😳 39% of time spent after 7PM
Add emails, texts, pages, etc…🤦♂️
