RESULTS: Healthcare providers are a uniquely respected voice in society but have not used this advantage to advocate for their communities and participate in mitigation, adaptation, and resiliency efforts on behalf of their patients and communities.
CONCLUSIONS: Healthcare providers feel that climate change is real, is human caused, and is currently or will shortly negatively impact their patients. They feel unprepared to serve as leaders and advocates due to time limitations and a knowledge gap. Resources in the current climate movement can help close this gap.
结果:医疗保健提供者是社会上唯一受人尊敬的声音,但没有利用这一优势来倡导其社区并参与缓解措施,适应,以及代表患者和社区的弹性努力。
结论:医疗保健提供者认为气候变化是真实的,是人类造成的,目前或不久将对患者产生负面影响。由于时间限制和知识差距,他们感到没有准备好担任领导者和倡导者。当前气候运动中的资源可以帮助缩小这一差距。
