The Veteran's Administration has operated a chiropractic residency program at five VA hospitals since 2016. They are now expanding the program to five more hospitals. This will give these DC's skills to practice in hospital and other medical settings.
Do you see benefit in chiropractors treating patients in the hospital?

Deaths by medical mistakes hit records
Another study showing huge death and serious complication rate from hospital care. A recent study from Journal of Patient Safety estimates 1000 deaths and 10,000 serious complications per day from preventable hospital errors...and this does not even count medical errors made outside of hospitals.
"What these numbers say is that every day, a 747, two of them are crashing. Every two months, 9-11 is occurring…we would not tolerate that degree of preventable harm in any other forum."
Any thoughts on why we don't hear more about all these preventable deaths and injuries?
