A commitment to ending ED boarding is also a pledge to anti-racism and patient safety, writes @StarrKnightMD. And that’s not all: Boarding and its ugly friend ED crowding also negatively affect emergency physician well-being. ow.ly/v1Tg50Uj2Qw

Caring for pts can be tricky when police are involved & many EPs don’t know their ethical & legal obligations when conflicts arise. But @StarrKnightMD says the most important thing: EPs are legally obligated to patients, even in face of police demands. tinyurl.com/2s4jv9u5

#Diversity among physicians is lacking, & education can improve racial equity in #medicine, but the #SupremeCourt #SCOTUS recently struck down race-conscious college admissions. @StarrKnightMD says that hurts care for #peopleofcolor. tinyurl.com/2hts4zbp #AffirmativeAction
