@JamesTitcombe In my view, it's healthcare professionals who need educating. On providing informed consent including giving all reasonable options upfront and letting patients decide. This shouldn't be the uphill battle that it currently is.
Great opportunity for some freelance work with The Mental Elf!
@drruthannharpur Thanks you - I point out here, it was the CEO at that time, she was later "moved on" and has disappeared without trace.
The CEO of East Kent Hospital's accused Derek of trying to "undermine the reputation of the entire hospital” after his grandson, Harry died as a result of failures in care. However, since Derek's advocacy and insistence has brought patient safety issues into the light, East…

@drruthannharpur They are but what’s really frustrating here is that the Trust have apologised for the care (or lack of) for Finn and Ruth but not the way they treated Martin after. He knew he was right and they were truly awful. This is what families have to endure to get the truth.
Watch this and sign @Safe_Maternity petition for the national inquiry into maternity services that Finn's parents, Martin and Ruth, are asking for. maternitysafetyalliance.co.uk

This long-Covid paper helps correct the most frequent/harmful mistake I've seen in my career- ie docs using psych diagnoses as a reflex default ("its all in your head") when can't nail a known cause for symptoms. Uncertainty always beats false certainty! thelancet.com/journals/lanmi…
It feels like going back in history 100-200 years. Mental illness exists. PTSD, OCD and ADHD exist. PTSD can include grief but they are not equal. Grief doesn't make people re-live traumatic events as if it happens on repeat, doesn't cause horrible nightmares, emotional numbing,…

Not everyone needs to hear this, but some people definitely do: Trauma doesn’t grant you a license to be an asshole. Trauma might *explain* harmful behaviors, but doesn’t *excuse* them. Trauma most likely wasn’t your fault—but it is unfortunately your responsibility to manage.
@drruthannharpur This approach is FAR too sensible to be accepted by fundamentalists. SHAME ON YOU!!! ;-) Comfortable, safe, happy mums make happy babies, families & communities. Who would have guessed? The Retired Simpleton Dinosaur.

@drruthannharpur Thanks you - I point out here, it was the CEO at that time, she was later "moved on" and has disappeared without trace.
@BabyLossLawyer @DerekRKENT @drruthannharpur Sadly it happens it other sectors of the NHS where staff feel threatened when their standard of care is challenged.
@JamesTitcombe Agree. This binary construct of low and high risk causes so many problems. Why do we have it in maternity when the reality is nuanced? Accept that almost anything can happen in any pregnancy, get rid of the arbitrary classification and focus on intelligent, responsive care
@BabyLossLawyer @drruthannharpur It was the same with us - independent.co.uk/news/health/ha…
@drruthannharpur They are but what’s really frustrating here is that the Trust have apologised for the care (or lack of) for Finn and Ruth but not the way they treated Martin after. He knew he was right and they were truly awful. This is what families have to endure to get the truth.
And the events that came after. The way in which families are often treated - with complete contempt. That will love with them forever, and yet now the Trust apologise. Not for their behaviour & how the treated Martin as he knew he was right. A truly incredible family.
Parents who lost son during birth demand action. The parents, Ruth and Martin Kennedy at the centre of the tragedy, sit down with Sky's @Shamaan_SkyNews to discuss the events that led to their son's death. trib.al/5dj1Tdy

@drruthannharpur @adamfare1996 Get in Dr H!
100% this 👇 I can't even imagine this would be unpopular.
Unpopular opinion time: Being able to make an ADHD or autism spectrum diagnosis should be a core adult psychiatry competency, and it’s not going to work if they all have to be seen in a specialist clinic to get that diagnosis…
@drruthannharpur There is such pressure for supposed perfection, which gets equated with optimal. But 'good enough' really is that, not some perfect sweet spot. I would add tho that environment+relationships impact all those things considerably, and much of that is outside mums' immediate control
It’s our stillborns 5th birthday. The 1st year my daughter has been aware and asked to have a birthday cake for him. I’ll be honest, at first I thought it was a little silly, but it’s now become something I’ll do every year. Thankful for the gentle heart of my 3yo
This really took the wind out of me. For someone to do this to their child. My cancer is in my bones, lymph nodes and liver. I would never fake my symptoms and I do my absolute best to put on a brave face and soldier on in front of my child.
9news.com.au/national/cance… Belle Gibson faked seizure at son’s birthday party. This makes me so angry. As a stage IV cancer patient I do my best to shield my kid from seeing me at my worst. How traumatic for her child and wicked of her to do this to him.
Hopefully Australian publishers and media have learned from this appalling episode. She didn’t do this on her own. People with extraordinary claims need to provide extraordinary evidence.
“red flags really started to pop up for me”, Ms McAuliffe said, when she watched Ms Gibson miraculously recover from what seemed to be a seizure – wiping the saliva from her mouth and insisting she was fine, after moments before rolling around on the floor news.com.au/lifestyle/real…
