Intubated, chemically sedated, and immobilized, Ravi developed a massive pulmonary
embolism and died handcuffed to a hospital bed. He’d been caught in a system that
worked against him at every turn.

The first measles death in the US in a decade -- the tragic, preventable death of a child whose parents chose not to protect them with vaccination -- should spark an immediate nation-wide campaign to ensure all children are protected against preventable diseases. Anything less is unconscionable.

Fantastic talk from @maiadorsett.bsky.social about giving feedback in #EMS. This was important to me as a medic & I prioritize it as a Medical Director when I can. Too many limitations w/ hospital outcomes. NEMSAC is trying to break down silos with improving bidirectional data sharing. #NAEMSP2025

Up next: the research question:
Will agency or battalion level equity report cards decrease care inequities?

Equity in #EMS is not a niche issue. It’s a central issue to care provision in EMS. The HOPE collaborative is 9 EMS systems brining their data together to address care inequities.

“Diagnosis doesn’t equal impairment.”
“We cannot ‘self-care’ our way out of this problem.”
Licensed healthcare professionals must answer questions about their diagnosis & treatment which jeopardize their license status. This adds to the stigma of asking for help.
