One month until SAM Belfast (2nd/3rd May). Fantastic programme. Great speakers. We are excited to see old and new friends. Few in person spaces remain. Register for in person or online. eventsforce.net/eventage/front…
The real tragedy is that this is no longer news but the accepted "new normal". The short term incentives focused on hitting 76% target in March also feel like have led to the predicted April bounce. It is an "eternal winter" and totally grim.

The right policies could stop this. Increasing 4 hour access standard to 78% from 76% doesn’t work. Instead focus on 12 hour length of stay, it’s already in the contract. Not doing this puts elderly people’s lives at risk

Loving the @acutemedicine podcast. Highly recommended.
A radical plan to introduce units that have existed for 10 years in the majority of hospitals. Marvellous. Will next week's radical plan be to introduce penicillin to the NHS?

"A funding cut could be the final straw for many colleagues and would undoubtedly cause severe harm to large numbers of patients. Funding is only part of the solution but a crucial one. A reduction at this stage could be a terminal event" @acutemed2 theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/m…
Important thread from @RCEMpresident. The artificial focus on quick wins over next few weeks will potentially cause harm to the sickest and most vulnerable patients. If target "hit" in March and "missed" in April what has been achieved?

Absolutely agree @RCEMpresident. The most vulnerable patients who are stranded in overcrowded emergency departments will only suffer as attention is focused on ticking a box for an easy win. Not what any of the staff working in these areas want but will be pushed to do 😢

@LawrenceDunhill 1. It's really depressing that the focus is on 76%. This will inevitably focus effort on the 'quick wins' and discharged patients. Meanwhile there is deafening silence about the utterly miserable 12 hour (from time of arrival) stays.

"For patients experiencing appalling conditions and staff working in persistently overcrowded areas, the suggestions that things are improving will be bewildering. An increase of more than 10000 patients waiting 12 hours .. lays bare the reality of current situation"

It happened! It happened!!!! Thank you to all the lovely people in Acute Medicine who have carried me through the past 6 years. @acutemedicine Here’s to the most fun specialty in the hospital 🥳
Amazing news @AmyBroad92 so well deserved ! Great things coming your way 👌🏻 welcome to the @acutemedicine family !! 😊 @SWBHnhs @DanLasserson @MidlandMetUH @GeneralistUS
Got some exciting news yesterday! Can’t wait for the next stage! Bring on ST4! 💪🏻 Thank you to all who have helped me to get this far especially @AcutemedSarbc I could not have done it without you!
Loving the @acutemedicine podcast. Highly recommended.
The data starkly illustrates the reality for politicians about to write manifestos. There is a binary choice: significant investment with sustainable plans increasing capacity or presiding over a system that is permeated with degrading corridor care and unnecessary deaths.
Latest NHS stats...my analysis. We are at risk of obsessing over miniscule changes in what is otherwise a planet sized clusterfuck of poor performance that started long before Covid. Or in gif form...
Ambulatory care and SDEC services have mitigated the crisis in urgent and emergency care. Unimaginable how much worse things would have been without it. There is scope for further improvement but it is not a "magic bullet" that will solve current crisis.
A radical plan to introduce units that have existed for 10 years in the majority of hospitals. Marvellous. Will next week's radical plan be to introduce penicillin to the NHS?

@Dr_BellaR @acutemedicine provides a wonderful #LifeWorkBalance - @AcutePete and I find it interesting, exciting, fulfilling and bringing the right amount of challenge even after many years. No regrets.
Great to see @CatrionaWaitt receiving the Dolores Shockley Diversity & Inclusion in Clinical Research Award #ASCPT2024. for work building evidence for the medication we use in pregnant & breastfeeding mothers. Looking forward to better evidence to use in @acutemedicine.

Important thread from @RCEMpresident. The artificial focus on quick wins over next few weeks will potentially cause harm to the sickest and most vulnerable patients. If target "hit" in March and "missed" in April what has been achieved?
@LawrenceDunhill 1. It's really depressing that the focus is on 76%. This will inevitably focus effort on the 'quick wins' and discharged patients. Meanwhile there is deafening silence about the utterly miserable 12 hour (from time of arrival) stays.
Absolutely agree @RCEMpresident. The most vulnerable patients who are stranded in overcrowded emergency departments will only suffer as attention is focused on ticking a box for an easy win. Not what any of the staff working in these areas want but will be pushed to do 😢
