Em Pulse

It’s time for another Repeat! This is one of our earliest episodes and it is a favorite because of one woman’s powerful story. Annika Huff (formerly Annika Mack) is a survivor of human trafficking. She speaks with us about her experiences in the life, how she got out, and how she was able to move on with her life. Then, Dr. Bryn Mumma takes us through her research on how we can better identify potential victims in the ED. Dr. Rachel Robitz shares some advice on how to approach patients who may be trafficked, create a safe space, and offer support and resources. And, finally, our own Dr. Julia Magaña discusses how she manages this in pediatric patients.  Stay tuned for our next episode for important new research and updates! Did you listen to this episode when it first aired? How was your practice changed since then, in terms of screening for human trafficking?
