11:00 AM - 11:15 AM | WELCOME
11:15 AM - 12:20 PM | HEALTH EQUITY - CARVING OUT A BETTER TOMORROW! JOSEPH SAKRAN, MD, MPH, MPA As health care workers, we are constantly thinking about how to improve the quality of care. However, we rarely talk about our own biases toward our patients, let alone racial bias. Join Dr. Joseph Sakran as he discusses his own journey and how implicit bias impacts the delivery of healthcare. Dr. Sakran will also discuss how we can share responsibility and work to change our culture, improving the lives of our patients while we remove the barriers that hold us back together.
12:20 PM - 1:25 PM | EXAMINING WOUNDS OF A NATION RESPONDING TO FIREARM VIOLENCE - BABAK SARANI, MD, FACS, FCCM As with most public health crises, the umbrella issue of “gun violence” touches on many interconnected facets of our society. Dr. Babak Sarani is among the doctors pleading for the country to do more to combat gun violence. Listen as Dr. Sarani shares his experiences and perspectives on firearm violence, including the causes of death following civilian public mass shooting events (CPMS) and urban homicide events. He will explore opportunities to change practices to mitigate risk of preventable death following CPMSs and compare the injury pattern of those who survived CPMSs to the injury pattern of those who died following CPMSs.
1:25 PM - 2:00 PM | TRAUMA SURVIVOR PRESENTATION
2:00 PM - 2:15 PM | BREAK
2:15 PM - 3:20 PM | THINKING THROUGH TRAUMA PROVIDER STRESS & RESILIENCE IN THE ERA OF COVID & BEYOND - ANNA NEWCOMB, PhD. LSCW & DOUG ZATZICK, MD These uncertain times have been particularly stressful in healthcare. The scope and effect of caring for trauma patients on providers while managing COVID-19 presents a complicated mix of post-traumatic stress and growth, anxiety, and resilience. Managing the stress and bringing balance to your practice involves self-care. Dr. Anna Newcomb and Dr. Doug Zatzick will discuss the risk and resilience factors and strategies to minimize stress individually and collectively.
3:20 PM - 4:25 PM | MANAGING YOUR TRAUMA CENTER DURING CIVIL UNREST - EILEEN BULGER, MD, FACS Seattle saw a period of civil unrest in 2020 after the death of George Floyd. During those times, Dr. Eileen Bulger and her team worked in a state of heightened security, supporting trauma center access for injured patients while managing injury patterns associated with civil unrest. Join us for her first-hand account of how one trauma center operated during one of the most challenging times for their community, state, and nation.
4:25 PM - 5:30 PM | THE IMPACT OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON TRAUMA CENTERS: MANAGING INCREASING NUMBERS OF NATURAL DISASTERS - DAVID PARKUS, MD & KATHY RODGERS, RN The impact of climate change on weather patterns is growing more evident, from the strength and number of wildfires to unseasonal variations in temperature to increasing drought conditions. Dr. David Parkus and Kathy Rodgers, RN, have managed their trauma center in Beaumont, Texas through multiple hurricanes. Listen in and learn how this trauma team managed weeks of resource shortages, surging volumes, logistical challenges, and unexpected injury patterns.
