Politics The Black Political Agenda

6 Upvotes

Our community is global, but this particular agenda focuses on U.S. federal politics.

What else should be added to our list of political demands?

Be specific. Be brief

Keep comments focused on new proposals. No lengthy debates, no derailing, and absolutely no trolling. Trolling will result in a ban.

Discussion Let’s Talk About It

Post image
• Upvotes

Racism has always been present in medicine and healthcare here. It’s well documented that Slaves were experimented on and almost always with no anesthesia. And of course there’s the notorious, Tuskegee Experiment, which did not end until the 70’s!

Recently, my Adult daughter experienced a life threatening medical emergency, and I can confidently say that they almost killed my daughter on two if not three separate occasions.

And I share that to say: ADVOCATE, ADVOCATE, ADVOCATE!

If you don’t fully understand what’s going on, call a friend or family member to come be with you when you talk to the doctors.

Because my daughter was in a teaching hospital which supposedly was #1 in the State, ICU was pretty much ran by Residents/Interns. And they had daily huddles outside of every patient’s room. You have the right to attend those. Ask questions, voice your concerns.

Identify those in your circle that you can call on if you need them, because if you don’t, you may end up burying your loved one. I saw way too many families in the waiting room, confused about what’s going on and they lost their loved ones…

Know your rights as a patient and make sure they don’t violate them.
