Debated on retweeting or not - this video can reinforce PTSD & sexual trauma
1- note comments about a male provider by those in healthcare: assume he is a doctor
This is a nurse
2- #womeninmedicine & male nurses face this bias often
3- this is outside his scope of practice https://twitter.com/shesinscrubs/status/1252647917824782336

Amid appropriate outrage on the content itself that is sexualizing these nuances getting missed
There is a narrative that abuse is by doctors
yes, there *is* historic & current abuse by doctors
but to *effectively* address abuse & harm we must be careful about assumptions

I find it appropriate that it was a nurse @shesinscrubs addressing issue of professionalism by a fellow nurse
It is similar to how @HealthyWorkInst addresses #bullying in healthcare, including nurse on nurse bullying
Doctors could learn a lot from that kind of self policing

Fact is some images are more powerful than others
a white male in scrubs or a white coat = authority
in a way that a woman or minority never will
This is an uncomfortable truth for many. It is well established, however

Erosion of trust in healthcare professionals overall is significant today especially for #covid19 #FlattenTheCurve
erosion of trust in doctors is particularly important
demographics of who is policed in society matches who is policed in healthcare https://abcnews.go.com/US/police-chief-orders-probe-handcuffing-black-miami-doctor/story?id=70111116

I am especially concerned about the #mentalhealth of all #HCP and clinicians right now, as well as those who work at front lines and may experience stigma. Illustrative tweets from @NursePatMacRN
Now imagine if it were hospital cleaning staff, at lowest level of hierarchy?

Meanwhile politicians are shaming #healthcare staff instead of doing their own jobs
my responses to the suggestion that
adhering to #safety standards to *prevent* disease transmission in #hospitals is not our job?
Respecting #clinicians means respecting #quality standards

Then turf wars - where some clinicians align with nativism & anti-immigrant sentiment - to self promote, like this poster/marketing campaign to hire “made in America” PAs (instead of immigrant physicians)
= #healthcare *not* a safe space for #minorityhealth or immigrants

This is not new & existed pre- #COVID19 #pandemic
Is disheartening to see marketing campaigns during a pandemic leverage xenophobia. It harms #interdisciplinary #teamwork
Most importantly, is a threat to #safety of patients

Something that has not been talked about as we move towards #interdisciplinary #teamwork:
how #professionalism gets defined & policed across different clinician types
This is an interesting piece from a #nursing journal on what “patient #advocacy” means

Was deeply concerned by public shaming for “smiles”
of a black physician trainee who *had* followed all rules
by a marketing professional who lacks relevant training, experience, licensure
+
not citing any valid standard

denying #mentalhealth stresses & implicit bias

In fact, as per @colleenmfarrell a leading voice on trainees, #MedEd, #MedTwitter work hours, #bullying in #healthcare, dancing and posts on @SoMe have a clear influence on morale and #mentalhealth when under unusual stresses during #covid19 #pandemic

I have seen many calls & shaming within #MedTwitter for #censorship of physicians, nurses, trainees & #HCP to get off of #socialmedia or #TikTok during the #pandemic
to self silence
No
Yes to: valid #interdisciplinary standards-based, culturally respectful approaches to #SoMe

We HAVE licensed clinicians & communication experts within #MedTwitter
Do NOT allow paid non-clinical consultants trained in corporate marketing working for administrators to police
police ourselves @JulieSilverMD @mclemoremr @shesinscrubs @DrToddWo @ZDoggMD @HealthyWorkInst

There are SO many #SoMe experts on #MedTwitter I will miss a lot because of Tweet character limits
We MUST assume this responsibility to set standards
The @AmerAcadPeds is an early adopter w/ guidance - like this on #TikTok to #tweetiatrician https://www.aappublications.org/news/2020/03/30/tick-tock-tiktok-pediatrics-in-review-3-30-20

Am an expert at identifying waste, abuse, fraud
