only on here to yell at rail companies and the health secretary. Opinions my own, but we can share them if you like. Black Lives Matter. Let’s end homelessness.

I cannot BELIEVE how med school made such a big deal out of phaeochromcytoma but have not a single lecture on “how to support your homeless patient”

Amy Fitzpatrick I absolutely agree... medical school/nursing school doesn’t prepare you for real life scenarios. You could learn about the most complicated disease but the moment you are faced with a social problem... the buck gets passed on

@p3t3rmcd @tallthincurly @DimpleDevki Amy Fitzpatrick No we don't. But we can certainly offer the feedback that the 4x/day medication regime that was given to the already confused pt with marginal english language skills might not be the right option to help them succeed.

@tallthincurly DroopySocialworker @p3t3rmcd @DimpleDevki Amy Fitzpatrick You tacitly implied that Dr’s shouldn’t have to worry about social issues by asking —disingenuously—if one would go to a social worker to get treated for diabetes. However, SWers informed you that they have to know enough about diabetes Rx’s to effectively support their clients.
