OWN NSW Prof Kathy Eagar Lynie🐦 Dr Sarah Russell I'm horrified by the tasering of a 95 year old distressed person.

I'm also horrified that a Geriatrician wrote an article this week stating if a person with dementia was 'greatly distressed' as a valid reason to implement 'assisted dying.'

Childhood literacy is a predictor of poverty in adulthood. Shockingly, over 1 million Canadian children lack the necessary reading skills.

The earlier kids get smartphones, the worse their mental health as adults.

New study, 27k+ ppl: owning a smartphone younger predicts lower self-worth, motivation & resilience—and more sadness, anxiety & aggression—especially for girls.

Smartphones should wait until high school.…

Camilla Wong 黃朗欣 🇨🇦 Canadian RGIG Canadian Geriatrics Excellent thread. Satisfaction even held true in 2019 with the updated Canadian Medical Association data, of which this slide tells the recent story (of note, mean balance work/life satisfaction is 49% for all disciplines surveyed and geriatrics sits at a whopping 57%).

Always weighing the evidence on this. Substantial study. Especially when we already live in a time of worsening

Shouldn’t we be doing all we can to mitigate further damages to our kids/families?

Given the evidence, campaign needed to educate families. I know many middle schools have zero tolerance policies on this. Those should continue and become more fervent. Knowledge on this subject is powerful. Mental health suffers. School District 43 BC Family Doctors David Eby

On the train back to London and reflecting on the last few days with the obligatory m&s tinnie. It was my first in person and it has really been like a spa retreat for my little geriatrician heart and mind. Renewed passion and energy for work - this slide sums it all up!
