Arthritis Foundation New York’s Post

Rudolf Virchow: “Medicine is a social science and politics nothing but medicine on a grand scale”. The remit of medicine therefore extended beyond the mere treatment of disease to encompass measures furthering the health and wellbeing of the entire population.

Please send email to your local rep to reauthorize and refund the Dr. Lorna Breen Health Care Provider Protection Act. https://lnkd.in/eBeNJGjb The Dr. Lorna Breen Health Care Provider Protection Act is landmark legislation supporting health workers’ mental health and well-being. Since its passage in 2022, the Lorna Breen Act has funded $103 million across 44 organizations to implement evidence-informed strategies that reduce and prevent suicide, burnout, mental health conditions, and substance use disorders. This legislation has also created the Impact Wellbeing™ national campaign, which gives hospital leaders evidence-informed solutions to reduce health worker burnout, sustain well-being, and build a system where health workers thrive. Now, we must call on legislators to reauthorize and renew funding for the Dr. Lorna Breen Health Care Provider Protection Act in 2024 to ensure our healthcare workforce can receive the support they need. The Lorna Breen Act is a lifeline for health workers, offering resources to address the mental health challenges they face. In addition to widening its reach to more hospitals, the reauthorization of the Lorna Breen Act also renews focus on reducing administrative burden for health workers everywhere. This critical legislation is not just a matter of policy; it’s a critical piece of the health delivery supply chain that benefits not only health workers, but everyone who will require medical care in their lifetime.

A day dedicated to tearing down barriers in health care and planting seeds of equality. Yesterday, I was in attendance for the confronting of the anti-black racism in health and regenerative medicine held at @David Braley health sciences found at McMaster University. Let me take you there: → A room alive with the promise of change, ready to take on anti-Black racism head-on. → Stories of fight and hope against sickle cell anemia. → Conversations on chronic illnesses, with eyes on the horizon of regenerative medicine. This was more than a conference. It was a gathering of hearts and minds, a symphony of shared determination. And in that collective spirit, we understood: → Our journey is one, our battles shared. → Each story is a spark for transformation. → Our collective voices are the loudest call for healing. Showing up means more than being seen. It's lending your voice, your ear, your shoulder. And as the sun set on the event, the dialogue didn't end. It echoed out, into plans of collaboration, community engagement, research and definitely into the world, into action. P.S. To the warriors of health equity, Your fight echoes in halls and hearts alike, Your cause rings true, And your path is joined by many footsteps.
