Some people see what’s wrong in healthcare & do something about it. Meet Todd Otten, MD, the driving force behind Suck It Up Buttercup. A physician, patient advocate, and co-author of Ripple of Change, Todd brings experience & determination to the work of restoring humanity in healthcare.

In a survey published by The Commonwealth Fund, these statistics were cited. Imagine being ill and having to choose between healthcare and food. This is the sad reality of healthcare in America. Join us as we try to tear it down and rebuild safer care for all. #fpsky

85% of nurses surveyed reported staffing-related disruptions to patient care. 58% of executives rated their organization’s leadership as effective. Only 28% of frontline workers agreed. These findings come from AMN Healthcare’s 2026 Workforce Outlook Survey, released September 15. siubfilm.com

What does this mean, people over profits? The Financial Times reported Monday on rising healthcare costs. A Pennsylvania patient described paying under $100 for a cancerous tumor removal in 2022, then nearly $1,000 for removal this year. A 900% increase in CoC. Let’s revisit our standards. #fpsky

The patient they lost. The family they comforted. The moments they’re still replaying on the drive home. Healthcare workers deserve time to process, a safe place to speak, and support they can access without fear. “Suck it up” should never be the answer. 💛 siubfilm.com #physiciansky #nursesky

A new qualitative study of 25 early-career women physicians identified three key themes addressing the biases they face in the clinical setting. Failing to address these experiences jeopardizes both equity and workforce sustainability. www.jabfm.org/content/39/1...

We ask healthcare professionals to bring compassion to every encounter. But, then we pile on more paperwork, longer hours, patient quotas, and staff shortages. It’s time to give healthcare professionals the support they need to make time for caring possible. 💛 siubfilm.com #CaringForCaregivers
