hoe lang blijven artsen in de zorg elkaar de hand boven het hoofd blijven houden wanneer ze zien dat iets niet goed gaat. Wanneer komt het moment dat ze iets niet langer kunnen aanzien en ingrijpen? Wanneer dienen ze een klacht in jegens een collega?

In het zorgsysteem schemeren bepaalde gewoonten - zoals het niet openlijk bevragen van een arts of het volgen van orders zonder debat - door in de praktijk. Daarom proberen we actief een cultuur van dialoog te bevorderen. www.medischcontact.nl/opinie/blogs...

The guys who took healthcare away from millions of Americans

The ones who CUT billions of dollars for programs like cancer research and FEMA

Who sit and watch the president use military troops to attack our cities

Thanks to Mike Johnson, in the past 100 days, the House of Representatives has only been in session 20 days. And now, 13 days into the Republican Shutdown, they show no interest in negotiating a deal and are ending their vacation.

It’s time for the GOP to come back to work.

Never forget that Mike Johnson has a history of covering for GOP pedophiles.

Before he ran for Congress, Johnson was attempting to open a law school named for Rev. Paul Pressler, the former head of the SBC, and a notorious abuser/rapist of teen boys and young men.

Johnson ignored the reports.
