Finance should not be a barrier to medical education.

Final thoughts:

-We’re more fallible than we think, ⬆️ when tired.

-Use the checklists in an emergency,even if only to check you’ve done everything.

-Drs, ODPs etc should be regularly reminded of them,so use is 2nd nature.

-Checklists enable, not threaten, your skills 🧠

Love my arclight.

In one GP clinic I see pts who are wealthy & pts who are homeless.

Working in the NHS allows me to manage them in EXACTLY the same way

Same tests, same treatment, same referral. Whatever is right for THEM.

We must never allow that to be taken away!

I’ve said for many years that the people who need me most, couldn’t afford me.

So much about this report I could highlight. 3 things to start: 1. Doctors feel professionally undervalued 2. Under 40s most likely to leave - worrying for future capacity 3. Impact of current NHS systems on dr wellbeing cannot be ignored SMERC Scottish Doctors Well-being Study

Great time at #SonoGames . No prizes for NI teams but we all had great fun, lots of learning and plenty of future POCUS enthusiasts!

Are you a consultant working on the medical take?

As I approach 20 years of medical take work (which I enjoy more than any other kind of shift), I notice many things we seem to do out of tradition.

The take ain’t changed in 20 years!

Could/should it?

A MedEdThread™️:

Personal connections and sharing food at work to enhance relationships.

I think this is a valuable read. It explains some valuable lessons. 1: you won’t be replaced by AI but by someone who knows how to use AI. 2: organisations that see AI as cost cutting (lower staff head count) will be vulnerable because they ignore 1️⃣ time.com/6961559/ethan-…

The more people cycle, the safer it gets!

Rather than generating more scores, more tests or more algorithms, generate more experienced physicians.

The NHS will not recover unless we build a culture of joy, care and kindness, fundamentally change the way we value people in our most disadvantaged communities, shift towards health creation, prevention, early detection & protection & invest massively in primary care.

In this study of critically ill adults in ED, the physicians gut impression within 15 minutes performed better than any other existing tool in identifying sepsis

So why do we feel forced to use screening tools which we know cause their own problems?

This man, who never looked after a patient in his life, changed the way I practice medicine, made me question how I make decisions and I believe made me a better doctor & is the inspiration for my human factors courses. RIP Daniel kahneman bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-…

If you're new to teaching #clinicalreasoning , the first fact you should consider is that clinical reasoning is not a generic skill. Content and context always matter. #MedEd
