I had the chance to speak about individual well-being strategies... I opened by saying it's like asking a patient coming in with gunshot wounds if they've had their colonoscopy yet. It is a hard subject to talk about... 🧵#CHEST2021
I started with what I think of as 🚩🚩🚩 when I hear about wellbeing. Especially during covid. Especially in the ICU. See this thread for more! #CHEST2021
For the next portion of the talk, I share content from an AMA module I helped write for medical students in toxic or stressful environments. I think a lot of it applies to all of us in 2021. #CHEST2021 edhub.ama-assn.org/med-student-le…
There's a lot to take in on the #CHEST2021 platform, but don't forget to check out the e-posters. I want to highlight a few that caught my attention!
