🚨New Special Issue of @acadmedjournal.bsky.social on Disability Inclusion
Featuring research, perspectives, and cutting-edge practice. Dr Neera Jain is proudly part of the editorial committee and author on several pieces. Hats off to @docswithdisability.bsky.social! journals.lww.com/academicmedi...
Conceived by the guest editor Lisa M. Meeks and brought to life through the visual artistry of Kaitlyn Ripaldi and the poetry of Dr. Megan Brown (Box 1), this collaborative piece—uniting artist, poet, and editor, each with a distinct lens on medicine and disability—offers a powerful visual metaphor for how inequity persists within systems that claim neutrality.

Inside a single glass vase rest 2 sets of peonies, separated by an almost imperceptible barrier. On one side, the flowers thrive—immersed in clear water and enriched by golden nutrients that represent access, trust, and care. On the other, the blooms remain closed, their edges browned, reaching for a limited stream of water. Still beautiful, but not given the conditions to bloom. A single fallen petal beneath them marks the quiet loss of students failed by the system.

The vase stands alone in a hospital corridor. Down the hall, a student walks with a cane, her head slightly bowed under the weight of systemic ableism. In her shadow: the legacy of disabled learners who came before her—and those who may follow.

Every detail in this piece invites the viewer to question what is seen, what remains unseen, and what must change. What lies beneath the surface? And what will it take for every student to flourish?

CMHSE's Dr Mataroria Lyndon writes in the Spinoff on the importance of cultural safety in health professional regulation and why the Ministry of Health's "putting patients first" consultation, which positions cultural safety as separate from clinical safety, is misguided.
Culturally unsafe healthcare is unsafe healthcare – we cannot pretend otherwise
The government’s proposal to weaken cultural safety in healthcare isn’t neutral – it threatens lives and deepens inequities.
