Scenario

When healthcare worker couples disagree on advocating for patient equity

My partner and I work at the same hospital and we see how differently our colleagues treat patients based on their insurance status and race, but when I bring up systemic changes we could advocate for together, they worry about rocking the boat and potentially hurting our careers. We're stuck between wanting to do right by our patients and protecting ourselves professionally.

More people experience this than they realize.
