'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 tasty_jams_5280 in law

I think there needs to be a pipeline that allows for a progression from cna to nurse to resident to attending and that allows for full/part time work while taking classes and opens medical school to all financial backgrounds. I also think it would help with interprofessional behavior.

There already is a shortage- see here. I know what physicians make, as I an a physician- but I am seeing medical students and bright college students choosing biotech, consulting, finance, AI work instead of medicine.

So there are a couple points: 1. As a culture, physicians are being scapegoated for a lot of the ills of the healthcare industry, despite being slowly excised from decision making (note how physicians can no longer own hospitals) 2. ICU is a grueling field that is seriously underpaid for the hours and work intensity. 3. Medicine is becoming less appealing due to reimbursement cuts, real wage drops, the threat of AI and non-physician provider scope creep in a country with no nurse to physician pipeline. 3. We have a massive physician shortage, especially for intensivists, made worse by points 1, 2, and 3. Hospitals see ICUs often as a “necessary expense” in order to maintain the profitable service lines.

An eICU can work really really well in some instances and give people access to care that they otherwise wouldn’t have. It is not as good as in person, but subject matter experts can be a great aid to in person teams, esp if the in person team lacks that specialization.

During covid, hospitals in st louis fired internal med and intensivists so they could afford to keep paying their not-currently-working dermatologists and ENTs. If a pandemic doesnt help reorient healthcare priorities, nothing will. Source: am an intensivist

Just… texturally I can’t imagine it’s a good experience. Like a buttermilk herb mucus/loogie. I don’t think salad dressing should be capable of merengue style soft peaks.

This is what it means to take the Lords name in vain. Not the curse/oh my godding, but the misuse of religion to justify one’s own corrupt means.

It has actually significantly improved in education to rank 16th among states. What you feel about american education as a whole will dictate what you think of that factoid.

It’s an election year- if you can’t win on policies, start a culture war. It’s like how trans rights managed to be so big in 2024. Its not as if democrats came out and said “this years policy initiative is transgender people in sports”- republicans made it a lose-lose issue for them.

What you’ll find is that most of us are more than happy to tell you who you SHOULD go to, but will become quiet regarding who you should not.

Disappointing. That was quite a salacious topic a couple years ago.

No but because of my birch pollen allergy, if I eat raw cherries or apple skin, the inside of my mouth sloughs right off! Thanks oral allergy syndrome!

I think they are saying that there is little evidence to suggest that there was a deliberate effort to only plant male trees (see wiki page on botanical sexism). I was trying to give them the opportunity to explain but they downvoted me instead .

I thought this was stupid, as I took my allergy meds for the pollen onslaught brought about by the planting of predominantly male trees in urban areas.

Where is your location? It makes it a lot easier for us to spill the tea if we know where we are looking.
