The problem is without that, they just go back to the sorry excuse of the Defense of Marriage Act. My best friend at one post was an MOH, he could not even get flu shot in the HU (even as he was the primary care provider for their children). He could not get language training even when there is space available nor get access to Fastrac courses. And then they are sent off to a non-English speaking country and he's just supposed to know how to deal with the language barrier and the culture. I'm always afraid that they would encounter an emergency and would not have a way to communicate with the health professional unless his partner is also around. I think if the leadership puts people first, it solves a lot of problems, unfortunately, that's not the case. No wonder we are losing some really good people.DShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17339509969722767671noreply@blogger.com
