What a terrific Tuesday. Today is the day.
Launch Day for my latest collaborative book.
Dr. Blackstock, founder and CEO of Advancing Health Equity, emergency physician, MSNBC medical contributor, and New York Times bestselling author of Legacy: A Black Physician Reckons with Racism in Medicine, is a leading voice on bias and racism in healthcare. Forbes calls her "a growing voice that is bringing to light and offering solutions to unconscious bias and structural racism among healthcare organizations."
When we open up the world of possibilities to children to explore, they tend to move forward in that direction
The teacher of Lyssa Dailey Nurse Anesthesia Student Johns Hopkins University posted this of her young daughter’s class and introduced to them about Nurse Anesthesia
And, caps for the young students to simply try on as she read to them a special book about realizing dreams.
Lyssa shared Amber Coleman, DNAP, CRNA book for children, Amber Dreams of Anesthesia.
