Alberta physicians & learners! Lots of positive feedback on this CME on #microaggressions accredited for 4.5 Mainpro+ or MOC. Rewarding to have spearheaded this initiative. cpsa.ca/about-cpsa/ant…

Today is National Indigenous Peoples Day - a day where we celebrate the first peoples whose customs, culture, history and stories shaped this nation. #NIPD rcaanc-cirnac.gc.ca/eng/1100100013…

On #NationalIndigenousPeoplesDay, I share my gratitude for the exceptional leadership of Indigenous women who I am fortunate to work with: @CashinMD , @CaraBablitz, @The_Joxster, Sherry Antone, Nicole Cardinal, and Francyne Joe. Miigwech. (photo: R.Davidson’s Grizzly Bear Mother)

Presented to AMA staff on this new educational module on micro-aggressions available to all Alberta physicians through “myCPSA”. Of significance - the collaborative partnership with 3 provincial organizations to get this done!! #leadership #systempartnership #healthcare

(CW: suicidality). Physicians have suicide rates 2x the general population. I am a gay, Black physician who lives with a history of two suicide attempts. This is my story.💖 So many thanks to @letswondermind @AshleyOerman for publishing this piece.💖 wondermind.com/article/suicid…

"We lost our daughter to substance use disorder in May of 2018; a pain nobody should have to experience. She was caring, kind and always said “everyone deserves a chance.” She was not a “drugged-out zombie.”

It’s June 2 and we are wearing #CrazySocks4Docs to raise awareness and help de-stigmatize mental health problems in the health care profession. Share your #CrazySocks4Docs and join us in this important conversation! #BreakTheStigma #AMAPFSP

@eissyrc Thank you for your good wishes.

4 months into my new leadership role at the AMA. Most important advice I can share when embarking on a stretch role is to believe in your strengths, lead by your values, and take brain breaks (for me - walks, piano, movies) #womenleaders #physicianleaders #womeninmedicine

@KimKellyMD Love this photo of you, Kim! Looking great!

Congratulations to Dr. Joy Masuhara, the second annual winner of @EquityinMed’s Dr. Pauline Alakija Trailblazer award!!! #EDI #womeninmedicine #trailblazer 🥳

In case you missed it: Women are less likely to be credited for their scientific contributions than men. It’s true across multiple fields & at all stages, with important repercussions for career progress. #WomenInSTEM #WomenInMedicine #MedTwitter nature.com/articles/s4158…

A great day meeting with Northern Mosaic Network, @StatusofWomenNT & @juliegreenMLA in Yellowknife. So many insights from Canada's only legislature with more than 50% women about the march to gender equality.

Dr. Brenda Hemmelgarn, dean @UAlberta_FoMD, and I know serious work needs to be done to reform primary care in Alberta. We are laying groundwork for a more robust primary care training model to attract the best physicians & care providers. calgaryherald.com/opinion/column… @UCalgaryFamMed

Last day to nominate or self-nominate for the #Trailblazer award!

We know awards are flawed and often the same people are recognized over and over. The @EquityinMed team created an award to recognize and celebrate the challenging and often unrewarded work of a #trailblazer. Nominations accepted until April 16! #EDI equityinmed.com/dr-pauline-ala…

My eleven-year-old swung low for April Fools Day this year. #AprilFoolsDay

Organizational collaboration is essential to counteract physician burnout. Leveraging different skill sets and expertise accounts for the early success of AHS Physicians’ Healing group. Pleased to present with Dr. Meakins and Dr. Stovel at the 2023 APA conference.

@ImogenRCoePhD 😢 ❤️❤️❤️🐶

A sad goodbye today to our beautiful, independent & characterful Niki, the husky. Old age & disease finally caught up after 13.5 yrs of chasing bunnies, sunning on the deck, swimming in the lake, channeling her inner cat & just living her best life #love❤️#gratitude 🐾🌈 🐾🐾
