ACEM Past President, Emergency Physician in the Waikato, NZ, passionate about rational use of healthcare resources, equity, exercise and wellbeing.

This morning, we sounded the alarm on the patient boarding crisis that has brought ERs across our country to a breaking point. In our joint letter to @POTUS, we shared real-life stories showing the threat to our health care safety net. [1/4] Full letter: acep.org/globalassets/n…

Following media reports on this issue, ACEM would like to clarify that the report into a case at Middlemore hospital in Aotearoa New Zealand was not an ACEM report. It was officially commissioned by @countiesmanukau and conducted anonymously by an experienced FACEM.






ACEM refutes comments by @AndrewLittleMP in the @nzherald and stands by Dr John Bonning’s assertion that NZ EDs are under extreme and unprecedented pressure. Data supporting @johnubonn's statements has been provided to Mr Little. Statement: ace.mn/vmf







It's Te Wiki o Te Reo Māori! Practice of te Reo in ED settings is a vital step towards providing a culturally safe emergency care environment for Māori patients, whānau and health personnel. We encourage you to get involved.🧵
