Losing teeth is a rite of passage for children. But when they’re knocked out, it can be up to us to find a solution. Here’s how to handle the emergency management of a dental avulsion, alongside some key tips for successful reimplantation 👇

Every person working in healthcare would benefit from therapy. It’s not normal to witness trauma, illness, and death with such frequency. It’s not normal to be living through a pandemic. Going to therapy is not a weakness but a tool that protects our ability to do this work.

when people ask me what working in the ER at St Michael’s is like, i say it’s like working on the starship enterprise (with way worse chairs). just spoke with my grandfather. he’s 99. he grew up before antibiotics. we’ve so much more on our side. we’re going to be ok.

five days into omicron or whatever variant and i do NOT want it again. it’s ass. my advice is N-95 groceries, air flow through all rooms, keep to one household inside, outside distanced hangs if nec, no gift/food passing + hold tight. cases in SA tanked faster than any prev wave.

One thing that might not be obvious outside the ER is that mental health social workers and psych nurses are saving lives every damn day and we are leaning on them hard in this time

Basics about suture types- NOT LEARNED IN MED SCHOOL. This is sooooo important! Wish every doc took a mini "surgical tech" curriculum.

Every single pediatrician I know was first in line to immunize their children against #COVID19 That should tell you something.

Tell your med students to stay home when the weather is bad. Being an essential employee isn’t a skill you learn. It doesn’t need to be practiced. They’ll have plenty of time to be necessary when they’ve got the pager and the pay. No need to endanger everyone’s life at once.

You cannot remember Dr. King and dismember his legacy at the same time. To celebrate him is to support voting rights, a livable wage, and health care.

And this is why I contemplate moving to Sweden when I’m ready to have children of my own....US maternity/paternity regulations are INSANE.

To say we are all devastated at Tufts Children’s is an understatement. In the midst of a pandemic, for-profit healthcare has destroyed a sacred legacy, and obliterated a decades-long commitment to the most vulnerable kids in Eastern Mass and ultimately most of New England.
