Community Impact: Big Idea Talk

How many healthcare providers face moral distress because policies in your clinic or at the state and federal level push you to do harm?

"Do No Harm, Choose Advocacy" a Big Idea Talk by Lilia Cervantes

Do no harm. Physician Lilia Cervantes shares how her patient turned friend Hilda repeatedly endured emergency dialysis and was forced to make a choice no one should have to make. Lilia couldn’t continue providing care this way any longer, so she made a choice. She chose to do no more harm and calls on others to choose advocacy as well.

Hear Hilda and Lilia’s stories.
