Excited about my broader role and to see my protege advancing in her career. Metro Life Flight is dear to me but I know Dr. DeMarco will take good care of the program and bring new ideas to the table. Plus I still get to fly and help teach!

@aviatorwriting @AskNurseAlice @Delta Going to have to respectfully disagree with the gushing compliments you gave - understanding personal limits is absolutely important but I’d hope a healthcare prof esp in EM would be able and willing to rise up in a crisis 🤷‍♂️

@FlyFrontier why don’t you provide accurate flight info in your own app? Currently app says 1044 from MCO to CLE on time but screen at gate says otherwise in tiny strip at bottom. Even pilots at gate didn’t know what’s going on.

RT @JerEscajeda: Welcome to the family ☺️

@dmwoof @beccajMD @dmwoof I don't see the dig at all. This started with someone making presumptions about her choices on childbearing. I hope one day we can allow people to share their lifestyle choices without people getting triggered because it differs from their own.

@southafricandoc @mister_hunt @P_McCulloughMD The p value of 0.36 he quotes isn’t in the paper. Read it for yourself. Difference in deaths was statistically significantly lower for vax vs unvax

@DShormann @P_McCulloughMD Read the table ignoring his annotation - risk of death statistically significantly lower for vax than unvax - odds ratio of 0.41 with confidence interval of 0.19-0.88. Not sure where p=0.36 came from since not in paper.

@rosshofmeyr Violent intoxicated patient tried to pee on me and when that didn’t work tried to bite me instead.

@khempel26 @joaquinlanz @CadenceDO @nytimes I can’t speak to admissions differences for the schools but I can say that there’s no performance diff between my MD and DO colleagues. Some of our best EM residents are DOs. It’s simply not a differentiator that matters in the US. 2/2

@khempel26 @joaquinlanz @CadenceDO @nytimes Whether a DO can use OMM/OMT in the US is mostly down to hospital credentialing. There is no difference in the licensing process or scope in US except for some states with quirks that don’t matter in long term (ie after completion of residency) 1/2

RT @JerEscajeda: NO. This was a poorly managed event that ended in tragic results. Stop this narrative. Hold #AstroWorld accountable for cr…

@AmericanAir elderly mother in wheelchair trapped in CLT at E21. Her flight arrived an hour ago and she could have made it to Aa 585 but nobody would take her. And flight left gate 5 minutes early with a known wheelchair passenger stranded in same airport? Please help her.

@LawnerBen @calldaburd @ugg0 @FLTDOC1 @DrewCathers @AMPAdocs @UCAirCareDoc @DarrenBraude One exception is if you have advanced clinical people who know transport medicine in comm center with EMR access from referring facility. They can dig for important stuff and send to team. Of course that’s really just what happens in most other countries with an actual system🤣

@calldaburd @ugg0 @FLTDOC1 @DrewCathers @AMPAdocs @UCAirCareDoc @LawnerBen @DarrenBraude To some degree the enemy of good is better with report. We all want lots of info to prepare and game things out but often in the US system you aren’t really getting lots more useful info out of them even with focused follow up questions.

@calldaburd @ugg0 @FLTDOC1 @DrewCathers @AMPAdocs @UCAirCareDoc @LawnerBen @DarrenBraude I agree. You need a minimum dataset to make sure appropriate resources are available but otherwise delaying to extract more report that isn’t even always very reliable is rarely worthwhile. Other than specialty trips we launch crew with only basics and update in flight.

@UCAirCareDoc @momedic9019 @DrewCathers @AMPAdocs @FLTDOC1 @calldaburd @LawnerBen @DarrenBraude Exactly. 24 hour shifts can be fine at places with the right combo of volumes and drive times but they can also set up staff to be at risk of giving bad care or endangered during their commute.

RT @UCAirCareDoc: Finally! Anybody out there flying the Hamilton T1 vent in a @MetroAviation program in an EC145 or BK117? If so, talk to m…

@heavyhelmet @UCAirCareDoc @MetroAviation @laertezz @alatimer13 @emsdocbrent @AMPAdocs @flightRN_medic @k8kro @UCflightnurse @JacobMillerACNP How is the cabinet mount for the aft facer seeing the vent? I don’t want to end up with vent AND zoll poorly visible to aft facer. Sigh. Anyone know of a Bluetooth repeater for zoll so could see on a other screen that’s more visible to aft facer?

@heavyhelmet @UCAirCareDoc @MetroAviation @laertezz @alatimer13 @emsdocbrent @AMPAdocs @flightRN_medic @k8kro @UCflightnurse @JacobMillerACNP Gotcha. Trying to balance task allocation and viz for both crew. Hopefully getting some mounts to mock up diff options. I strongly dislike monitor in L window due to viz for aft facer. For ppl putting T1 in L window where do u put zoll?
