Description
Description:
So many horrible things are parading around in fancy clothes and our profession is remarkably silent. Things on this planet are at a level of a medical emergency, threatening extinction, and the medical profession is too low key. Patch wants to spark a role for our profession to sense and change. Mental illness may be a normal response to this disaster – not requiring medication, rather calling for action to create healthy contexts.
Educational Objectives:
- To describe a role people in health-related professions can play to spark change in the world.
- To name three ways to create healthy contexts to counter disaster.
