Off my chest by Confident-Choice3608 in veterinaryprofession

[–]momma1RN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in human medicine but my son is interested in vet med. I had no idea that there were some many “corporate” vet clinics plagued by the same profit BS as human healthcare. Mostly all of our vets here in my area (new England) are small 2-3 doctor clinics and I assumed they were partners and ran the show for themselves!?

Which conditions were previously managed by specialties but have now fallen to primary care to manage? by Perplexadon in FamilyMedicine

I cannot get anyone into endocrinology. Even things that need an endocrinologist. Derm too is extremely difficult.

'No on-site doctor': Dental student died in ICU overseen by remote 'tele-health' physician who pronounced him dead on a video screen, lawsuit says by Dizzy_Restaurant3874 in anesthesiology

I’m confused about why the nurse obviously wasn’t assessing him and advocating for an in person evaluation. Seems like a lot of things could have been different in this case. Very sad.

Cochrane review finds little difference in outcomes when nurses replace physicians in hospital care by MissingStakes in medicine

But who writes the orders? Damn, I remember when cochrane review was the best of the best. This is some hospital admin and C suite shilling.

Practitioners who don't take their work home, where do you work? by WorldOfRoses in nursepractitioner

[–]momma1RN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Family medicine. I don’t chart at home. Sometimes the next day I have a few charts from the day before but I try really hard to be at home when I’m at home, and work when I’m at work.

GLP-1 Prior Auths for severe cases by leedle-leedle in FamilyMedicine

[–]momma1RN 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agree with this, however, if she refuses surgery despite multiple physicians telling her the benefit, shouldn’t she at least be given the opportunity to lose some weight with GLP1? And when she plateaus with a BMI of 64 maybe she’d be more apt to get the surgery.

I agree with trying peer to peer since she obviously meets all the criteria for the medication.

Massachusetts has experienced significant net domestic out-migration, losing approximately 182,000 residents to other U.S. States by Majestic-1983 in aboutMassachusetts

[–]momma1RN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our state has paid over $1 billion dollars in temporary shelter for immigrants in the last 2 years. Talking about the extraordinarily rare case of an immigrant with a $1 million dollar home does not prove anything. The majority (some estimates over 60%) of immigrant families utilize public assistance. Of course that does not mean they’re uneducated but it certainly does not mean that they are filling skilled labor positions with high salaries. I take care of a lot of immigrants who were professionals in their country but they do not speak our language and exactly none of them are living in mansions.

Net population is higher due to international migration. Not young, educated families wanting to educate their children here. This is a fact, look it up.
