This is SO important. Spent many years in Singapore’s hardcore high school edu system working my ass off but not achieving the way I wanted to, until I got to uni and realised I needed all the other things to truly be productive and do well

My grandfather was one of two interns during the 1918 influenza epidemic. He lived in the hospital and was on call QOD. Then the other intern died of the flu. Grateful to be alive, despite being on call 24/7. #MedEd

11/ I left after that. You know? This patient reminded me that a "PUI" is more than just a “person under investigation.” They’re also a person under isolation from human interaction. Necessary, yes. But hard, too. You know?

Been talking about doctors using their steths to lunch, toilet breaks, etc as an infection risk for the longest time. But NOW is the time to stop if you haven’t already.

It’s been 6 weeks since we had our first online class and I’m wondering if any of my students noticed my outfit colours over the last 6 days are those of the rainbow... 🤔😂🌈 (maybe we need one more week of violet to confirm)

“Burnout is often a systems-thing” Dr Liz Crowe (she/her) speaking truth at #MDSCx. Our role as doctors should NOT be assumed to include 36h shifts & an environment of bullying. Burning out isn’t a reflection of a person’s tenacity. Medicine as culture, as a system must do better.

We wrote a little something on temperature taking in schools over the week! What are your thoughts on the issue? theconversation.com/will-school-te…

I’ve given half my life to medicine. And medicine wouldn’t give my husband a chest x-ray. Some kids stole a truck yesterday. And they almost stole my husband’s life alongside it. (1)

"Failure is the cost of admission to a meaningful career... when you do, remember that authenticity is more important than perfection." This deeply struck a chord in me. Thank you RanaAwdishMD! #mdsc2021
