Escape room for physicians where you have to…
- Turn off (and on) the bed alarm
- Boost a patient in bed
- Pull tray table over the bed
- Troubleshoot a beeping infusion pump
- Silence and adjust alarm parameters on patient monitor
- Disconnect tube from an IV
What else?

Once upon a time, a dynasty ruled an empire.
For generations, the emperor’s leadership went unchallenged because everyone knew the emperor was the wisest strongest warrior in the empire.
How did they know?
The emperor’s clothes.

Happy #DoctorsDay! Thanks for the 🍕🌮🍪🍩, but next year could you:
-Help us not get bullied by insurance companies @uhc
-Stop slashing @CMSGov reimbursement rates
-Make drastic social reform so #healthcare isn’t the dumping grounds for lack of food, shelter, transportation
-Work on socio-political reforms to address #gunviolence and fund #mentalhealth and #addiction
-Check corporations from trading profit for public health — here’s looking at #drugpricing, #fastfood lobbies, BigAlcohol lobbies…
Not to be needy or anything.

“[I]f the paper did not suit the United executives’ liking, they could oppose its publication.
United also had the ability to edit and suggest changes to the paper’s drafts, and executives were kept up to date on the researchers’ goals and progress, the emails show.“
