"[Triage] fell pretty squarely on the point-of-care providers...I feel psychically distressed". Institutional pandemic plans must align with the complex and dynamic conditions that clinicians face in real-world crisis conditions. @UWNephrology

Qualitative study: Institutional plans for health care crisis conditions during the #COVID19 pandemic did not protect frontline clinicians from having to allocating scarce resources. @katebutler @annmohare

@ajsilverstein16 Thank you for your beautiful reflections and strong call to action. Transplant is an amazing treatment, but far from a cure.

Fantastic application of the "best-case/worse-case" approach to shared decision-making in liver transplantation.

So cool to witness the beginnings of a project that's clearly going to be important for patients. @Yuv90 presenting at @UWNephrology grand rounds on his work to improve access to home dialysis. @annmohare @PennKidney

Inspiring talk at @UWNephrology grand rounds by visting prof @RachelPatzerPhD emphasizing the need for system-level and upstream interventions to improve access and equity in kidney transplant. (And she also managed to sprinkle in some epidemiology classics!)

Entirely proud to see @annmohare recognized for her leadership in person-centered care. After years of her mentorship, I'm still learning about what it is to truly approach discussions with patients and families (and colleagues, mentees, friends...) openly without agenda.
We are thrilled to share that Dr. Ann O’Hare @annmohare has been appointed as the inaugural holder of the Bill Peckham Endowed Fund for Person-Centered Care! Her career embodies the spirit of all that Bill stood for. @UWMedicine @womeninnephro #NephTwitter

Thanks for highlighting this issue at the intersection of #healthequity and #PersonCenteredCare, @GoHealio! @annmohare @UWNephrology @JRandallCurtis1 @AmakaEMD
Findings suggest that Black, Asian American, and Pacific Islander patient populations want more help to cope with advanced #KidneyDisease. Study was led by @KateButler @UWNephrology. #healthequity #palliativecare

Kidney failure and dialysis can mean incredible psychological and social challenges, but our healthcare system may not sufficiently support minoritized racial groups in coping with these challenges. @annmohare @AmakaEMD @JRandallCurtis1 @UWNephrology
