Deaf patients often don’t receive interpreters in healthcare settings. @MichLitch, from @UUtah, and Tamiko Rafeek join us to talk about why there’s a lack of interpreters in the US and how healthcare systems can better care for patients. sciencefriday.com/segments/deaf-…

@chrissyfarr Love the list! I will add:
-Why do health systems not provide sign language interpreters 100% of the time when the American Disabilities Act is in place?

Here's my running list of panel ideas for the "This Sh*T is Hard Health Summit," assuming we can get this going. A lot of folks seem to want to attend!
Thoughts?

A new PhD started today. She asked for general advice for the first few months. This was my advice:
1. Don’t work evenings or weekends
2. Don’t aim to prove yourself (to me), I’m already convinced of your capacities
3. Go for a walk when things dazzle you (1/3)

We hosted our dedicated @UofUHealth community @redbuttegarden for screenings of Academy Award-winning film CODA and documentary The Language of Care. @MichLitch discussed efforts to bridge linguistic and cultural gaps to improve care for deaf patients.

@MichLitch Deaf citizen scientists pointed out regional ASL differences, plus a need for multiple ways to sign insulin delivery, for example, so @MichLitch and team created an ASL glossary of diabetes terms.
This is #RebelHealth - Solvers working with Champions, patient-led innovation.

If you're deaf or hard of hearing and use a stethoscope, please take this survey by the top guru of amplified stethscopes, Dr. Sam Atcherson, PhD. Would go a long way to improving their use. Pic from @amphltweets website.

@Heather_RoseW @Pancreassassin @DiabetesCxns Try this: journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/10.117…
There are others too, but this one summarizes them through 2019. LMK if you need full text on anything. Good luck with your project!

@Pancreassassin @DiabetesCxns I do have some research publish on peer support. It is more about conceptualizing how it works though. @MichLitch has more out on the impacts of peer support on health. :D
