Is there anything worse than systems and hierarchy trying to prevent you from making changes for the good? Maybe part of this adulting thing is getting comfortable with making waves 🌊 #meded #MedTwitter

I seriously think that lots of junior doctors are radicalised into becoming anaesthetists after spending many hours looking for bits of random equipment in random ward treatment rooms, then seeing what it's like in theatres/ICU.

Many deaf people rely on lip reading in everyday conversation. Masks with no lip visibility make this infinitely harder + impossible for some. BUT the onus cannot be on the marginalised to adapt. Here’s what you can do to help. Resources in thread below #deaftwitter #medtwitter

As an FY1, I sometimes struggle to feel I am making any real difference. One of the small things I feel like we can do is welcoming medical students into our team, providing a positive learning environment to develop in. #MedTwitter #meded

Bring me back to my blissful naivety as a medical student, thinking that ā€˜normal’ ABGs were tricky.. Try full PPE (a.k.a trying to palpate a radial artery with two pairs o marigold gloves on), whilst half blinded from steamed up goggles.. šŸ™ƒ #MedTwitter #MedStudentTwitter

The best thing about medicine is meeting people who also get excited about human science, and not being worried about looking/feeling ā€˜uncool’ šŸ˜‚ #MedTwitter

I am currently looking for anyone interested in giving undergraduate-level talks on Medical Education (via zoom) to penultimate year Med students. Pretty desperate so would be fab if anyone could help! #MedTwitter #MedEd #MedStudentTwitter

It’s the time of year when on-call is too busy for dinner, so survival is based solely on finding and infiltrating nursing supplies of tinned chocolates šŸŽ„ #FY1 #MedTwitter

šŸ‘Couldn’t highlight this post enough! I love medicine, but it can feel like a never-ending competition. I am so glad to see many happy people on Twitter, but I’m not sure whether adding comments on getting a first choice is totally beneficial to the community #MedTwitter

I don’t know if I was the police force where a colleague just abducted and murdered a woman and I probably wouldn’t assault the women holding a vigil for the woman abducted and murdered by my colleague but that’s just me.

To join a protest of hundred is easy. To join a protest of a few is brave, and powerful, and beautiful. This handful of people must have alerted others. This handful of people gathered hundreds.

Just out of curiosity, if you are in the police force and get asked to attend situations such as #KenmureStreet but you don’t agree with it morally, are you still expected to go as part of your job?

If we ever get to the point in the British healthcare system where I have to give the patient the treatment they can afford, rather than the treatment they actually need, then I’m off, I’m out, I’m leaving. #NHSPrivatisation

This ā€˜it was just a cake for 10 minutes’ line has to stop. This was Fred’s 14th birthday. His brother, his friends weren’t allowed to ā€˜pop in’. My husband was allowed to be with us, for the first time in over a week. Fred died a week later. #partygate
