GLAM is back, taking on the aftermath of Roe v. Wade. Jess, Anna, and their guest Judyth Brown have a multigenerational conversation about women’ health and rights, where we go from here, and how we can get involved.
Natalie Zink is a paramedic and medical student in Georgia who speaks extensively on women's rights and the medical treatment of abortion. Her work can be found in EMSWorld and in other publications. This episode, recorded May 22, 2022 discusses the leaked Supreme Court brief suggesting the overturn of 1973's Roe v. Wade and 1992's Casey v. Planned Parenthood. Ed and Natalie discuss what field providers can expect and how to treat abortions in the field. This episode is wide-ranging from the logistics of certain legislation to how it effects healthcare providers. Countries such as Poland have attempted similar legislation to no avail. Abortion is a safe and (currently) legal intervention that will occur regardless of the current laws. It is important that EMS and pre-hospital providers know how to treat these patients and what they can expect moving forward should this case become law.
