Great turnout in Bristol! #respectradiography

Today we announce that Aortic Dissection Awareness UK & Ireland has been awarded 'Best Specialist Patient Support Charity - UK' in the 2023 Non-Profit Organization Awards. The judges highlighted our patient focus & leadership, our THINK AORTA Global campaign & our contribution to #AorticDissection research.

Global disease awareness doesn't get much better than Sam Sutton having an acute #AorticDissection diagnosed on a CT scan during the Season 19 finale of Grey's Anatomy. Thank you Grey's Anatomy for helping the world to #THINKAORTA . World Health Organization (WHO) Royal College of Emergency Medicine ACEP Members #medtwitter #AortaEd

Any strikes must be seen in broader context – years of underfunding have limited our ability to provide safe & effective cancer care. Crucial that Govt addresses recruitment & retention. UKAcute Oncology Society

Rightfully protesting for better pay and being properly valued doesn’t stop our amazing University Hospitals Bristol and Weston NHS FT nurses to come to the aid of of the public!!! 💙

This is what an overwhelmed National Health Service looks like. There will NEVER be a collapse, just lower standards of care. The ongoing push for community care can’t fix this issue. Only reversing austerity and investing in doctors and healthcare. bbc.co.uk/news/health-62…

Really looking forward to seeing all the new fellows in person. A joyous occasion which is the highlight of RCR year. My last chance to wear the Presidential robes so catch a quick photo before it is too late

We're hosting a webinar on 27 June to discuss our new 'Professional duty of candour' guidance and answer any queries.

Same themes as ever, but it is truly critical now.

Stijn van Laarhoven University Hospitals Bristol and Weston NHS FT NHS South West SoMe4HPB Great day!! Breaking down boundaries, improving communication and facilitating team-working- the only way to improve care for all HPB cancer pts in our region.

After 4 years of patient engagement, we welcome NHS England creating this toolkit. We hope it will address health inequalities and regional variations in care and outcomes in #AorticDissection , while the new Royal College of Emergency Medicine and ricardo carmona guidance addresses the national issue of misdiagnosis.

Jim Crawfurd 💙 🇺🇦 Darren Klass David Hartin Celina Bondoc We raised this issue with The Royal College of Radiologists and Royal College of Emergency Medicine two years ago.
