Show Notes
Canadian emergency rooms are overwhelmed, leading to patient deaths due to overcrowding. Doctors are speaking out, but face retaliation for their concerns. The Canadian Association of Emergency Physicians is advocating for whistleblower protections to address this issue. The system is broken, with hospitals unable to turn away patients, leading to toxic work environments and burnout among doctors. Leaders warn that deaths are not rare occurrences and that non-disclosure clauses are silencing the truth. The association is calling for protections to ensure that doctors can push for real fixes without fear of retaliation.
