Patricia Simmer MD is a second-year resident in the combined Emergency Medicine and Internal Medicine residency program at Christiana Care Health System in Newark, Delaware. A graduate of the University of Chicago, Pritzker School of Medicine, she earned her undergraduate degree and master's at the University of Michigan (Go Blue!). She is drawn to the challenges and continuous learning inherent in critical care medicine, but also has passions outside of the ICU involving the social aspects of medicine. Her focus involves investigating interpersonal violence prevention and providing support for survivors. In addition, Patricia finds fulfillment in teaching and mentorship, and hopes to participate in education throughout her career. She's excited and honored to be invited to SCCM 2024 to share the story of one of her patients, and to learn from the vast pool of knowledge and experience convened here.
