Most acute hospital inpatients are older and many are living with frailty. So unless you're a paediatrician, this course is for you!

Sometimes I’m asked ‘why do you care?’ ‘Swifts are one of the oldest species on earth. They spend more time airborne than any other bird yet when they come home they come home to us. They’re on the brink. They just need a brick with a hole in it.’

Do you ♥️ swifts & have a Conservative MP? If so, email [email protected] to get a draft message to send them. IT IS ALL ABOUT THE TORIES NOW. Will they betray or embrace their nature credentials? swift bricks are a litmus test….

Great meeting Mike Nesbitt to consider how to deliver the 3 shifts in NI & how to stabilise, reform & deliver. Felt even more optimistic after meeting NI geriatric medicine trainees in NI & hearing their plans, led by the fab Elaine Nelson & Jan Ritchie British Geriatrics Society Department of Health and Social Care

All very well and a mantra already old 50 years ago, well before MRI or even CT. But beware"not uncomplicated" low back pain esp if constant & keeping pt awake. Don't miss infective discitis in the young or metastases/myeloma in the old. If any possibility at least send CRP.

Intriguing to see how nature reclaims these places. Ferns & Orchids & many other plants adorning roofs, gutters, cracks in the wall & floor. #wildflowerhour

Incredibly valuable and fits with what we see in practice. An abnormal 4AT score is not normal. I see many patients with moderate or even severe dementia with 4AT scores 1-3
