Hugely impressive stuff from Mark Lyttle recognised for his work leading a digital revolution in our University Hospitals Bristol and Weston NHS FT Children’s ED. We couldn’t be prouder. 👏 HSJ Awards Health Service Journal RCPCH APEM NHS Bristol, N Somerset & S Gloucestershire ICB

Happy birthday you wonderful #NHS. We love you. You’ve come so far & done so much. But it would be naive to deny that you are a little frail. You’re going to need some proper care & attention yourself to get you through another 75. I really hope we can. #NHS75 #NHSBirthday

Huge congratulations to my fantastic CAPC, Bristol colleague Prof Chris Salisbury, Chris Salisbury who has been given the George Abercrombie Award by the Royal College of General Practitioners for outstanding contributions to the literature of #generalpractice. Wonderful, well deserved news. SAPC NIHR School for Primary Care Research

Scary continuing regression of modern times. Painful to have to say it out loud again: Vaccinate your children - for free & with a very safe vaccine - to protect them (& others) from a disease that kills & injures. Shout it from the rooftops. #Measles theguardian.com/society/2023/j…

A moving poem from Brian Bilston. Read it down. Then read it up. Expand your circle of empathy…

Hard at work on a Saturday morning for a GP/AHP strategic meeting We continue to explore how to offer the best care for our patients whilst also looking after ourselves. I work with the best team 😍 BrisDoc Healthcare Services NHS Bristol, N Somerset & S Gloucestershire ICB

So what are we going to do with this game-changing research? Tweet about it? File under “interesting” or start to shift investment towards community based services? Here’s the business case for the shift for all national/local politicians, all public service leaders & treasurers.

601 CT head scans. 5 bleeds, 4 of which predicted by high risk status. So 596 people no benefit from scan and many will have had unseen harm- a trip to ED, fear or pain in scanner, a hospital stay, ‘deconditioning’ aka ‘got worse in hospital’ - we need to change this!

Looking forward to seeing UrgentHealthUK colleagues next week, and learning from all your excellent work in urgent primary care BrisDoc Healthcare Services

Helen Whately MP NHS England It's great that we have been able to publish this framework -only 4 years of work by several clinical leads with a policy team led by Matthew Winn ن and James Sanderson . It's important that ICBs invest in the teams in General Practice and Community Services to deliver this

I've done 2 surveys on career intentions for GP Registrars: before and after this scheme The one after had higher numbers wanting salaried posts over locum This ill sighted move will reverse that trend and the workforce crisis will deepen. @DrKatie.BSky.Social BNSSG Training Hub

Thanks @Oohgpwales and Trisha Greenhalgh - great to learn from your work and contribute to the session BrisDoc Healthcare Services

Dr Linda Dykes has moved to Bluesky We are writing a decision making matrix to empower first on scene clinicians (whether UCR or amb crew) to hold long lie patients at home with frailty VW referral for assurance, CGA and falls detective work. Trying to break the status quo of all needing conveyance!
