#Improvisation is a core process for implementation of H@H - you work with what you find around you. Policy makers need to be aware that it is not a ‘lift and shift’ from hospital - great point from ⁦Sophie McGlen⁩ #whahc2025 ⁦UK Hospital at Home Society

2Missed information and mistakes in medical records are frustrating and can put people’s health at risk. People in our poll told us they had been refused treatment and given wrong medication – all because of errors in their NHS records. bit.ly/4jxDqLB

UK GPs (predictably) don't want to have anything to do with assisted dying but need to "acknowledge that their patients will turn to them "to have conversations about it." bmj.com/content/389/bm…

"Decades of experience as a GP working with terminally ill patients has convinced me that we need to change our laws on assisted dying" #YesToDignity express.co.uk/news/uk/202739…

Heartbreaking: “Voluntary Stopping Eating & Drinking is not an easy death but with the current law in England this is the only way I can have control over my death.”💔 This country’s law allows self starvation but not the choice of assisted dying. mirror.co.uk/news/health/mu…

"Fundamentally, the question here is: is it right for me to tell the person next to me that because of my moral scruples, they have to suffer, possibly, a really hideous death? Or, is it their right to decide without me interfering?" northwaleschronicle.co.uk/news/25223079.…
