We need to keep abortion and all reproductive healthcare services safe, legal, and accessible for everyone, no matter their income, gender, race, immigration status, or where we live. #WomensWave seiu.org/2022/10/seiu-passes…

“ I could take better care of myself to take better care of my patients.” These are stories of @uclahealth residents speaking about what would happen if they had a salary that kept up with the cost of living. And this is the reality across the UC system and beyond.

Heavy work loads, lack of sleep, and financial insecurity are burning us out. We will care for our communities every time they need us but we need to be cared for too. We need a #faircontractnow with fair wages and support. #1UCforAll

We shouldn’t have to drive for Uber or go without air conditioning in LA to get by.
Frontline healthcare workers need to be respected and cared for!
Read the stories of what the resident physicians and fellows of @UCLAHealth are facing and why they need a #FairContractNow

I was one of the pediatricians in the #HighlandPark ER today. I’m devastated, afraid, & angry. What will it take for these senseless acts of violence to stop? How do I keep my patients safe? How do I keep my family safe? #ThisIsOurLane #GunViolence is a public health CRISIS.

Breaking News: The Supreme Court overruled Roe v. Wade, eliminating the constitutional right to abortion in a decision that will lead to all but total bans on the procedure in about half of the U.S. Chief Justice John Roberts voted with the majority. nyti.ms/39SYQnZ

OMG PEOPLE stop using "pussy" as an insult of weakness. Vaginas were literally designed for intense contact sports. Your weak-AF body part is a goddamn scrotum.

I have a 4th grader. It’s jarring how nonchalantly kids talk about active shooter drills. No big deal, eat breakfast, learn fractions, go to recess, prepare for an AR-15 assault, have a snack, play with friends

Fellow twin mom told me she’d put her girls in separate classes next year, so it’s less likely both would be killed if a shooting happened.
My husband and I had just had the same talk.
This is not a normal.

For today, we’re passing the mic to one of our pediatric nephrology fellows (@XGaeta), who lived through UCLA’s #union campaign and negotiations process. The role of unions in protecting against unilateral institutional actions @cirseiu #residentwellness #MedEd

Had an appointment @UCLAHealth today. Was charged $14 to park for 47 mins. There is absolutely no justifiable reason for this. Discussions about health equity don’t just center in exam rooms, but in barriers we put up before patients can even walk through the door.

Resident physicians are calling on @uclahealth to recognize the realities of being on the frontline of this surge, including how increased workload has impacted our education, schedules, and ability to care for our families. Join us as we call on UCLA for #FairPayfortheFrontline

I think our 2022 resolution should be to stop reflexively saying NPO at midnight when the guidelines state clear liquids are okay up until 2 hours prior to surgery.

The difference between 15 weeks and viability?
Let me tell you the difference between 22 1/2 weeks and viability.
I had a triplet pregnancy. My first son delivered at 22 1/2 weeks and died. My other two delivered at 26 weeks and both are filling out college applications.
