      Things like this can happen all so suddenly, but luckily she was educated enough, saw it coming, and knew what to do and where to go. Miranda Bailey, First Black Female Chief of Surgery at Grey-Sloan Memorial Hospital, was having a heart attack, and instead of going to the cutting-edge, research-oriented and teaching hospital with an advanced Level-1 Trauma Center that she is head of, Chief Bailey went to Seattle Presbyterian, a lower-ranking hospital, that doesn't have a handful of the worlds best surgeons like Grey Sloan Memorial. Miranda admits herself and meets Dr. Larry the head of cardio, he consults and concludes that she is making this up in her head since there are no symptoms indicating she might be having a heart attack. He continually rejects all her ideas and refuses to run more tests, instead, he insists that the pain or feeling she's experiencing may be due to hormonal changes, new medications, or due to the fact she has a mental illness. Still, Bailey stands her ground and educates him on the fact that heart attack symptoms appear differently in women than they do in men yet Dr. Larry doesn't still believe her or the pain she claims to feel. Miranda Bailey then informs the head of cardio that about 70 percent of women who succumb to death from coronary heart disease display no preceding symptoms and that African-American women are farther at risk than any other ethnic group. Refusing to leave the hospital unless being treated for her oncoming heart attack Bailey stays and ends up saving the life of a person on the other side of her curtain in the emergency room who had begun to code. After giving her all to help this person Bailey collapses and only then is she taken seriously. Slavery has produced a legacy of racism, injustice, and brutality that runs from 1619 to the present, and that legacy affects medicine as it does most social institutions. Racial discrimination has shaped so many American institutions that it shouldn't be a surprise that people of color receive less care and most often worse care than white Americans. African-American patients tend to receive low-quality health services, including cancer, H.I.V., prenatal care, and preventive care. They’re also less likely to receive treatment for cardiovascular disease, and they are more likely to have unnecessary limb amputations. These inequalities contribute to huge gaps in health insurance coverage, uneven access to services, and poor health outcomes among certain populations. African-Americans put together approximately 13.4 percent of the U.S. population yet they are treated as outsiders. They experience illness at extremely high rates and have a lower life expectancy than other racial and ethnic groups. They’re also one of the most economically ethnic groups in this country. As someone apart of this community, an African-American young woman, it is absolutely painful to watch how badly my people get treated specially during a time of true need like at a hospital visit. If more people of African/African-American descent were given more opportunities when it comes to education, college, and post-college education the life expectancy of the ethnic group would definitely rise. As someone eager to step up into the medical scene, I believe that this school can aid me in the process of that. Nursing is a passion that I´ve been excited to pursue for a very long time and knowing that not only can I help save someone's mother, father, sibling, or grandparent, but it would also mean so much more if those people were apart of my ethnic community and receiving the treatment they utmost deserve.
