The medical profession must respond to increasing multimorbidity (several conditions at once) as the population ages. Medical training, NHS services and research need to adapt to this. In particular we need to maintain generalist skills alongside specialist ones. (4/5)

My crusade to rephrase co-morbidities to multi-morbidities has now reached Professor Chris Whitty Chris Whitty Thank you being part of it John Hurst Tom Fardon brian lipworth subscribe.transistor.fm/shared_invite/…

The power of singing to help breathing

First time up to the #BTSWinter2023 meeting since pre pandemic. Great learning opportunity but also seeing old colleagues again. #respisbest

Tree is up but not sure for how long. #catsandchristmastrees

This is just class ❤️ A lovely tribute from Glen Hansard and Lisa O’Neill who sing “Fairytale of New York” at Shane MacGowan’s funeral. Makes you proud to be Irish ☘️

#sgtpepper2023 v2

it’s that time of year again. Happy Christmas/ seasons greetings to all of Team Respiratory across UHD from the consultants. Tough time ahead for us but we all pull together #respisbest #lovemyteam

✔️ Finished three day ward cover for strike. ✔️ All plans made to allow people home for Christmas safely thanks to MDT support ✔️ handovers put in place ✔️ Father Christmas pickup from work at home time. Merry Christmas everyone and thanks to everyone working

Merry Christmas to all those working in the NHS today Many staff in the NHS are grossly underpaid (even on Christmas day👇) but none more so than Junior Doctors who frequently graduate with >£100k debt RT to support them & ask government to pay them ALL fairly #PayRestoration

Come join the UHD respiratory team!

Nice day for the ducks. Where did the summer go?

Something calming about watching the wind in the ornamental grass outside the hospital

Sad day for me as after 23 years here as a consultant I am moving out of what has been my office. Department has moved to a temporary shared space for who knows how long, and I am asking myself will I have retired by the time we return

Hello Vienna. Excited to be here for the ERD congress. Let the learning begin

Enthusiast vs expert session for IPF. Great way to see where we’ve come from. I’m definitely an enthusiast! #ERScongress
