@BenWThompson Perhaps we represent tissue more than an organ…epithelium, because it covers (palliates) just about everything. Though this too is a bit esoteric.

@PalliFosterDoc Catch 22. We reduce ourselves to an organ and seem redundant, or call our organ the spirit and seem esoteric.

Wouldn't it be nice if consultative services collaborated as efficiently as the organs they represent.

Hey #MedTwitter. Can you give an overly simplified idealistic description of your specialty? I’ll go first: I hope to be a peacemaker for the chaos and turmoil of serious illness and the medical system for patients, families, and providers.

I’m not sure what the future holds, and diversity in social media platforms seems like a good idea to me. #Threads #MedThreads @pallifosterdoc" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">threads.net/@pallifosterdoc

Thank you everyone for the replies and retweets. Please keep them coming. Frientorship, mentorship, and networking Mahalo nui loa! (Thank you very much)

Are there any other indigenous palliative physicians out there? I am curious because I really don’t know. I am Native Hawaiian. I am helping a Native American who is planning to apply this year to fellowship. I would like to network. Please retweet #MedTwitter #HPC #Indigenous

Medicare support for graduate medical education (GME) is vital to strengthening and diversifying the health care workforce. Join me and @AAMCToday in telling Congress to support the Resident Physician Shortage Reduction Act today! ctt.ec/1yqVG+

✍️SAVE THE DATE📆 The 12th Biennial Pacific Region Indigenous Doctors Congress (PRIDoC) is coming to Australia. The conference is from 2nd to 6th December 2024 in Adelaide, SA - the traditional Country of the Kaurna people. Pop it in your diary and see you there!

@natashaabadilla She deserved better. We deserve better. You deserve better. #MedTwitter #FightforBetter

TW: physician suicide One news report like this is TOO MANY. This is why the residency system needs to be changed, why hospitals need to listen & put their patients & employees over profits. Dr. Nakita Mortimer - we’ll continue fighting your fight, our fight. You deserved more.

DEA has issued a temporary extension of COVID-19 telemed flexibilities for prescribing controlled substances. For patient/practitioner relationships est. by 11/11/23, a 1-yr grace period applies, allowing full COVID-era telemed prescribing thru 11/11/24. bit.ly/41mMklc

@AjKavanaugh @AjKavanaugh Now do physicians….

@TomOliverson @TomOliverson Thank you for your work. A more effective solution is to support an increase in GME positions. Then these physicians will have a consistent path to licensure. #MedTwitter

The Texas House passed H.B. 2556, which aims to alleviate the physician shortage by introducing a new medical license that will allow medical school graduates and certain foreign physicians to join the workforce under the guidance of a licensed physician.

@DrAlisonW As a veteran and current palliative medicine fellow, I’d love to hear more about #combatpalliativecare

Amazing to connect with military research leaders and speak on Combat Palliative Care at the TSNRP Conference! #hapc #combatpalliativecare

#NASW offers condolences to family, colleagues of Vermont #SocialWorker Leah Rosin-Pritchard, MSW, who was murdered by a client on Monday. We urge Congress reintroduce Safety Bill this year. @Ipsos survey says 84% of public supports social work safety legislation. @NASWVTnews

It is a misconception that AANHPIs don’t need support. We need to look at the giant pay gaps that AANHPI groups face. In 2022, Native Hawaiian women only earned 61¢ for every dollar that their white, non-Hispanic male counterparts made. #NotYourModelMinority #AANHPIEqualPay

“I don’t know if I can fix your abdominal pain, but I will try. I will look for answers and seek out solutions and no matter the outcome, I will be there. I will walk with you all the way. I promise to be one of the few who will walk with you all the way.” 😔 #HaPC #MedTwitter

Happy #NationalDoctorsDay!
