episode When Ice Brings You the Patient artwork

When Ice Brings You the Patient

In this episode of Unsettled, we examine what happens when immigration enforcement collides with healthcare. Dr. Mark Kuczewski, Dr. Amy Blair, and Dr. Theresa Nguyen join the show to discuss their recent American Journal of Bioethics publication on the ethical challenges clinicians face when treating patients in ICE custody. They explain how hospitals often apply blanket forensic patient policies—originally designed for dangerous incarcerated individuals—to immigrant patients who may pose no threat, resulting in harmful practices like shackling, privacy violations, and barriers to proper medical care.

Healing Under Pressure - Physicians Fear and the Duty to Care

In this episode, we discuss the impact of immigration enforcement on healthcare. The panel explores how ICE activity is affecting immigrant patients, creating fear around seeking care, and challenging healthcare providers to maintain trust, confidentiality, and ethical practice. Through personal experiences and clinical insights, the conversation highlights the need for clear protocols in healthcare settings, patient education on their rights, and stronger advocacy to protect vulnerable communities. The episode underscores the broader public health implications of immigration enforcement and the role healthcare professionals can play in supporting immigrant patients.

Healthcare in the Shadow of ICE

In this episode of Unsettled: Migrant Health in the U.S., we are joined by Dr. Lisa Mattson, President of the Minnesota Medical Association, to discuss how immigration enforcement actions are impacting healthcare delivery in Minnesota. Dr. Mattson shares concerns about increased ICE presence in hospitals and clinics, reports of HIPAA violations and staff intimidation, and how fear of detention is leading some patients to avoid seeking care. We also explore how providers are adapting through home visits, virtual care, and clearer institutional protocols to protect patients and staff, and the broader role of organized medicine in advocating for patient rights and access to care.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
