Ew, the top of NEMSIS webpage says “This website is funded by NHTSA and is being modified to comply with President Trump’s Executive Orders.” Which orders? The one where health data are being scrubbed because they show minorities are often at greater risk of health inequities? #handsoffmydata

This is a thought-provoking piece from 2018 that, yet again, is ringing true in the research world.

An administration that deletes public information (e.g., scrubbing public data) and denies history in education (e.g., mandating how we teach about race) is an administration exerting censorship. They try desperately to control your words, thoughts, & ability to make decisions.
Nazi Propaganda and Censorship
Nazi efforts to control forms of communication through censorship and propaganda included control of publications, art, theater, music, movies, and radio.

It appears that the Social Vulnerability Index (SVI) page has been removed from the CDC website.

The SVI is an important database that measures and quantifies the potential negative effects of disasters of human health at the county level.

Teaching #EMS to notify a loved one of a patient’s death requires compassion, skills. Regions Hospital launched an online video highlighting their educational strategies on #deathnotification in the field. See QR below. #NAEMSP2025

Phenomenal! You got so many great tactics and used stakeholder engagement. Are any of the resources available online for other #EMS agencies looking into #maternal #newborn #perinatal care?

A great example of identifying barriers to novel #EMS program implementation. Durham EMS ided logistics and training issues, two issues I’ve found problematic in other novel #prehospital programs. The magic in buprenorphine inductions when challenges were solved! #implementationscience #NAEMSP2025

So many orgs tossing #DEI ed. Why? Problem isn’t learners. 85% learners thought DEI ed vital. 78% support DEI ed. 60% applied learned techniques during training. 56% intended to use them in personal lives. IMO: Problem is with institutions who fail to recognize intolerance and prejudice. #NAEMSP2025

It’s refreshing to hear #education embrace #DEI training for student learners. Simulations! Skills training! Based on theoretical frameworks and existing literature. ❤️ #NAEMSP2025

So much discussion about the intersection of #DEI x #EMS. Sitting in this lecture on novel training education in the area - had me thinking about many posters I saw last night. #NAEMSP2025

Waiting for the riot to start. The only cola product at #NAEMSP2025 all day = Pepsi. No Diet Coke has been identified. I am under the impression all #EMSphysician survive off Diet Coke and energy drinks. @glaucomflecken.bsky.social, what’s the prognosis?
January 9, 2025 at 8:16 PM
Experts suggest more #preeclampsia, #eclampsia, and #hypertension #meded for EMS. Those keywords are missing from many CAPCE course descriptions in this area. #NAEMSP2025

The US is behind on #obstetric and #newborn care for #pregnant patients. Many become #EMS patients, and 34% deliver before they reach hospital. Knowing this, what are your top priorities for EMS education? #NAEMSP2025

A moving target is a lot harder to hit, especially when you make the barriers to hit the target nearly impossible. #asylum #NAEMSP2025

Border wall height increases = increased traumatic injury for those seeking #asylum. Healthcare access is difficult. 83% loss-to-follow-up after ortho injury. Not enough docs/space/time/money to provide adequate healthcare. #NAEMSP2025

I knew it difficult to seek US #asylum, no idea how hard it is to request/get to appointment! Using CBP app means: have cell phone and internet, download app, fill it out in English/Spanish, use in specific MX areas, show up right time/place. #barriers to legal entry. @naemsp.bsky.social #NAEMSP2025

#firstresponders are at increased risk of #alcoholism. Many don’t think they have a problem, but “It isn’t how often you drink; it’s what happens when you do.” Know the risk factors. Know the signs. @naemsp.bsky.social
#EMS AND #firstresponder battles with #addiction can’t be ignored. Neither can open conversation about #SubstanceUseDisorder. Dr. Amanda Humphries presentation had me in tears. Talk to your coworkers about #mentalhealth. @naemsp.bsky.social
