Fi ally listened to @ZDoggMD on @ETSshow podcast. Expected to be entertained, & I was. Did not expect to be so inspired! They discuss the value of being vulnerable with ourselves, one another, & our Pts. Hilarious episode & powerful messages! #MedEd

@WrayCharles This is great and very helpful. Thx @WrayCharles! I also love #PresentationZen. I strongly recommend avoiding the laser pointer. It's distracting everyone. Talking through or visually indicating important info (as described above) is much, much more effective.

Success!!! I am now [nearly] free of professional guilt.

@wclippertMD Yes, for sure. We (and many other programs) were emphasizing step 2 already since it HAS been shown to correlate with future performance.

Quick and quality piece with 10 best practices to avoid malpractice problems. My favorites are 1 & 3: minimize copy-paste & shorten notes. 🙌🙏 Already incorporated into #UKHMT & probably widely applicable. Document to defeat malpractice suits

@romilchadha @GrahamCarlos @KshitijThakurMD @UKHospitalists The exponential growth of administrators in healthcare correlates pretty nicely with that data. (GenX was born 1960-1980, so hit medicine around 1985 or so.) I think these trends are all alarming.

@JerMUSOM @stevenbollipo @ginorthshore @drkeithsiau @GI_Pearls @DCharabaty @BilalMohammadMD @AllonKahn @IrisWangMD @KapuriaMd @PerelmansPearls @Jonathansegal85 This color guide is great! I also think consistency is undervalued. Dark or "black" stool is a very common report, but if it's formed/solid, it's NOT melena.

@ReafordRJ Congratulations! Welcome to the circus!

What a great honor from @SocietyHospMed. Awesome work along with @romilchadha & @wclippertMD. The impact of #TWDFNR is massive and I'm proud to be part of it!

I strive to be this type of old fashioned! These messages are desperately needed in #MedEd. Thx @medevidenceblog for sharing & @THilalMD for pointing this out.

@GrahamCarlos from @EskenaziHealth and @IUSMDeptMed teaching us the chemical basis of resilience to combat #burnout here @UKHospitalists & @UK_HealthCare So amazing!!!

Working Christmas & NY to finish out 2019. Some think non-traditional shifts (nights, wknds, holidays) contribute to HM burnout. Maybe. But these shifts are *PURE* Pt care & offer time to connect more deeply with Pts. They can be quite re-energizing! Happy New Year #medtwitter!

@SuchitaSata @dukegme Great thread. Seems to be a pervasive issue in academic HM. We have services @UK_HealthCare that prefer an electronic order for non-urgent consults as it's less disruptive to them. Optimal is probably somewhere in the middle but we're struggling to find it. #UKHMT @romilchadha

New pet peeve: the dominos of PO iron (which I believe is mostly worthless): PO iron is started. Plus laxatives (b/c it's super constipating). Plus ascorbic acid (to acidify gut). In spite of the PPI/H2B they're also taking. Then my head explodes 🤯 #MedEd #TWDFNR #polypharmacy

@romilchadha @UK_HealthCare @Starbucks That's either because you're sort of famous there or because you're always wearing a name badge at work. (I suspect the latter!) 😂

After walking out a room on rounds the other day, my med student said to the other med student "Wow. This is the first time patients have really seen ME as their doctor " And she absolutely made my day. #bedsiderounds #MedEd

Dear oncologist(s), Yes, I want you to see my Pt before the bx is back. Why? To look them in the eyes. To talk thru the things that seem most likely. To show them a path foreward. Certainty isn't necessary to be a Dr. (or a human) for a person going thru a tough time. #MedEd
