BGS is pleased to see that @NHSEngland has reversed its decision to withdraw provision of @NHSPracHealth for secondary care staff in England. We encourage @AmandaPritchard to secure permanent funding so NHS staff have timely access to vital mental health support.

Big shout out to @Ldn_Ambulance and locals in supporting lady who tripped on pavement in SW9 today. Not life threatening injuries but got to her fairly quickly given weather and unable to get up. Locals provided cover to protect from rain/hail. #caringcommunity
Congratulations on this. I know that it’s been a mountain of work. It’s an important topic for the field, and very nicely handled.

Well done. Delirium as a preventable cause of dementia deserves study. Much of it arises unrecognized from unnecessarily hazardous routine care of older patients who live with frailty. Polypharmacy, untreated pain, immobilization, and chronic indifference all take a costly toll.

Great evening out at Cabaret at the @kitkatclubLDN @Caradele impressed A dark story with resonance for today - impossible loves, racial profiling and apathy against a background of extremism and totalitarianism - not a documentary but thought provoking enjoyable entertainment.
Happy World Delirium Day to all who celebrate!

A year to the day since I said goodbye to my Hickman Line for parental nutrition. Time and life moves on and I will always feel v lucky that it was in a positive way. Every meal time these days are a little treat and even better when shared.

Great to see an update to the Cochrane Review of Admission Avoidance Hospital at Home published in March of this year. Core message? Less institutionalisation, less cost, more acceptability and same clinical outcomes. @UKHaHSoc @DanLasserson cochranelibrary.com/cdsr/doi/10.10…
30years & 6 months working as a medical doctor in Nigeria (2years), England (27years), USA (1year fellowship) & Australia (6 months). I love my job & consider it the greatest privilege & honour working within a multidisciplinary team focusing on what matters 2 people 🇳🇬🇬🇧🇺🇸🇦🇺
Sad and excited and scared and [insert all other emotions here] to be moving back “oop Norf” from the summer. To South Manchester / Cheshire all being well* As @OHSELCCIO said “sad news but at least they’ll understand you better up there” *please pray to the estate agent gods
We have to fight this and sort out our internal medicine training Currently even with new curriculum intentions it is not fit for purpose
It’s a shame GIM is taught and deliver ever so poorly - as this is the direct upshot. Excessive consternation and denial of ownership. The result - 24-48hrs awaiting speciality StR review. Further duration of stay waiting for speciality test to occur.

So grateful to @DunhillMedical for this award, so excited by the opportunities the funding provides for involving others in #ageingresearch & supporting people living in #carehomes Emotional day - this was the last good news I shared with Mum back in February #careaboutcare
And the winner of the 2024 DMT Academy Excellence Award (Rising Star) is Dr Jenni Burton @JenniKBurton of the University of Glasgow. Congratulations Jenni! #investorsinhealthyageing
@MeBeckett That all resonates with me Nigel. There has been much grieving in the hospital. An excellent physician and person. Will try to channel all comments somehow in eulogy.
BGS is pleased to see that @NHSEngland has reversed its decision to withdraw provision of @NHSPracHealth for secondary care staff in England. We encourage @AmandaPritchard to secure permanent funding so NHS staff have timely access to vital mental health support.
Important service update.
