I've been trying to help unvaccinated people with their remorse when they land in the hospital/ICU with COVID. "You can use this illness to help your friends and family get vaccinated" seems to resonate. No need to rub people's noses in mistakes--look to what good can come.

Got a consult for a patient in the #ICU who is intubated and awake. “Please help this patient communicate. He needs to wish his wife a happy anniversary.” I love #Residents. #ICURehab #SLPeeps #MedTwitter #NurseTwitter #MedStudentTwitter #PalliativeCare

I had music on nonstop in the ICU. It was calming, grounding & entertaining. I hope music is incorporated into care to help w/ #delirium, #mentalhealth & improve patient outcomes. #icurehab #ptsd #MedTwitter #criticalcare #SoMeDocs #nursetwitter #epitwitter #patientexperience

1/ #COVID19 and #LongHauler   #Sepsis & #ARDS = family disease. Every pore of the entire family has been invaded. No one is spared. Pt’s spouses have PTSD, too. Kids have anxiety & suffer fear of abandonment. bit.ly/2IplI05   #medtwitter #meded #A2Fbundle #tipsfornewdocs

My youngest was the only kid wearing a mask in her class today. When I asked her about it, she said: “Well, I’ll keep wearing my mask” I said: “I’m so proud of you” She said: “I know” Please give my baby some praise y’all 🙏🏽❤️

Sudden withdrawing of antidepressants & many other drugs can cause #delirium. Think twice before scoring off drugs - sometimes no change or tapering down is more appropriate. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3189…

Associate MICU Director @tchen383 extubating COVID patients during the pandemic with EBM in ARDS. See cbsnews.com/video/bravery-an… When she is not extubating, she is working on EHR data, analysis, and AI in ARDS. Tireless and impressive! #7DaysOnTheFrontLine @MontefioreNYC #Covid_19
