Mullan Institute researcher and Atlantic Fellows for Health Equity scholar, Samantha Meeker, is presenting research on vicarious trauma among emergency response medical professionals at #APHA2023. "While vicarious trauma is an occupational challenge for emergency medical response professionals, hearing about the trauma experienced by those they serve does not have to result in vicarious traumatization or further manifestations on psychological, social, or occupational wellness." This work was done while Samantha was at the Institute for Health Equity and Social Justice Research at Northeastern University. Title: Vicarious traumatization among emergency response medical professionals: A systematic review (table 4) Session: Round Table 3: The Cost of Being an Essential Worker Date: Tuesday, November 14, 8:30am Link: https://lnkd.in/gTWn6_bb #HealthEquity #EmergencyMedicine

We all deserve safe & fair working conditions - but that's sadly not the experience everyone has. A new article in Bloomberg Law quotes Director Patricia Pittman who told them that "...foreign-trained nurses from developing countries are heavily targeted by agencies to provide cheap hospital labor." Read the full story online; as Dr. Pittman says, "the more people understand the problems in the industry, the more the industry is likely to self correct."

💊 Amid a behavioral health crisis, new research looks at workforce trends in the US to see who is prescribing medication to treat mental illness. Using prescription claims data, researchers Ellen Schenk, Qian Luo, and Clese Erikson found there was an overall increase of 2.7% in prescribers from 2017-2021. Looking closer, they found three professions with the largest growth in prescribers in this timeframe: Psychiatric NPs, NPs, and Physician Assistants. One possible contributor to this increase was a 2017 Comprehensive Addiction and Recovery Act that allowed NPs and PAs to obtain waivers allowing them to prescribe buprenorphine, a medication to treat opioid use disorder. Other professions, such as Primary Care Physicians, Addiction Psychiatrists, Addiction Medicine Specialists, and Child/Adolescent Psychiatrists, had very limited growth or decreased number of prescribers. The authors conclude by stressing the importance to "continue to monitor trends in the behavioral health workforce to ensure local, state, and federal policies are advancing health equity."
