I am livid at this assault on women’s health + the deeply personal decisions each parent/family has to make about the pregnancy journey. Even more enraged at limiting access to safe medical care that will no doubt disprop. affect communities already w/ worse health outcomes.

Appropriate clinical management of #opioid withdrawal is a crucial bridge to long-term OUD treatment. Dr. Kristine Torres-Lockhart et al provide a narrative review of evidence-based withdrawal management strategies applicable to a variety of treatment settings. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35112746/

“Irony” - today walking past this publicity campaign in the hospital lobby while the reality is day 2 of the nursing strike whose main focus is patient safety with better nursing staffing ratios (macarena blasting and so much spirit despite the freezing cold outside)

Love our nursing colleagues!!!

BREAKING: NYC nurses strike to end this morning in historic victory as tentative deals were reached with both Montefiore Health System and Mount Sinai Health System Hospital. Nurses won concrete enforceable safe staffing ratios in both deals and will be back on the job. 🔗: nysna.org/press/2023/bre…
