In March I presented @UChicagoMed Grand Rounds on my advocacy work on the soon-to-be-law Illinois Drug Reuse Opportunity Program (#IDROP) Act legalizing Prescription Drug Repositories. Since not everyone could make the talk, I wanted to introduce IDROP here. 1/45 Image This journey started organically during my time @UChiPritzker volunteering at @connect2home and grew during my residency @UChicagoMed to a broad coalition of physicians, pharmacists, free clinics, and community activists, hopefully signaling a new avenue for affordable meds. 2/45 Image

@UChicagoMed IM Residency @medchiefs Morning Report is resident-led. I was able to follow up my MR on Homelessness & Chicago History with one on Chicago Hospitals & Advocacy, hopefully educational especially for our interns new to the South Side. Featuring @ms47_mindy! I am not from the South Side of Chicago, and I am not a health care delivery expert, but I did the best research that I could for this presentation. I think it’s important to recognize those limitations going into my presentation.

@UChicagoMed IM Residency @MedChiefs Morning Report is resident-led. I was given the chance to present a case presentation on Homelessness & Chicago History, which I hoped would be educational especially for our interns new to the South Side. Featuring @vdimaggio & Nicole Gier Image I am not from the South Side of Chicago, and have never been homeless, and I think it’s important to recognize those limitations going into my presentation.
