🌟Ben Allen GP 🌟 @JEN_Elemental Claire Cruikshanks 100% lots of potential to utilise social prescribing, particularly for people who may need help navigating, connecting into local assets - either during an admission or if needing to consider prehab to get as fit as possible for a planned op or procedure. 👍

I don't want lower taxes. I want hospital beds. Trains that run on time. Kids who aren't too hungry to learn. Libraries in every town. Rivers that don't run with slurry. Local councils not forced into bankruptcy. Politicians who don't venally line their own pockets.

#AAAConf Jo Lamb 👏- let’s use limited time and resource in pre-op clinic on meaningful conversations instead of rehashing medical history. Achievable if care integrated with GP practice.

Lots of hot and in the most part unhappy responses to last nights “NHS to buy social care beds” story - I think in part driven by unhelpful simplistic headlines and overly simplistic take on the example. Quick thread here
