EPs & NPs are not interchangeable, no matter what the health care system suggests.

An NPP’s training of 2800 hrs or less is a far cry from a physician’s 14,000+ hrs, & Sandy Simons MD says EPs must speak up against nonphysicians taking over pt care. tinyurl.com/599bhm8k

Happened upon a dragonfly laying eggs today.

Proactive bosses who check on EPs? Support that responds in minutes, not hours? Admin providing lunch for no reason?

Is this heaven?

No, says Sandy Simons MD, it’s day shift in the ED. And after a career on nights, she’s loving it. tinyurl.com/2944fptx

I’ve always loved Wake Forest University. I had a great four years there, made some of the best friends of my life, and gained the wings and strength I needed to soar in life.
Today my love for Wake reached a new level because they accepted my son. Go Deacs!!
Proud Mama.

Emergency Medicine News Sandy Simons MD This is such a well-written article. I posted it on FB and asked readers to contemplate the challenges faced by women in EM. The microaggressions sexist attitudes are so true. I am a retired ED doc after 38 years.

Why are female #EPs leaving #EM ? Maybe they’re fed up with microaggressions & implicit bias.

Sandy Simons MD says the problem may be unsolvable w/o significant shake-ups in EM and in traditional thinking about gender norms. tinyurl.com/4r3m9c4y #womeninmedicine

Imagine working your #EM shift when you should be asleep. Oh, and there’s no support staff to fix broken computers & toilets, and admin doesn’t really care.

That’s what night #nurses deal with all the time. And Sandy Simons MD is eternally grateful to them. tinyurl.com/3drhcjc4

Just spent over an hour at home on my night off completing charts from the 2 twelve hour shifts I worked Sat&Sun. Not to mention the hour late I stayed last night.
With RVU pay, I’m supposed to believe working 26+ hours is necessary to get paid what I’m worth per hr x 24 hrs.

My beer heart turned out pretty cute. 🍺❤️
Happy Valentine’s Day to my awesome husband!
