Low #HealthLiteracy has a stronger correlation to poor health than education level, deprivation, age/ ethnicity. Links to poor health, ↑ hospital admissions, low uptake of vaccinations, ↓life expectancy. Digital & data poverty drive inequity too. See p31 https://t.co/FCVIGW2Djs

Following a very interesting chat with a group of GP VTS I am asking myself - "Is #BHT a research focused organisation?" Do they prioritise participating in research? Does this include #PrimaryCare too? What do you think? @BucksHealthcare @nhsbobicb @NIHRCRN_tvsm @nhsbobicb

GPs answer me this. If NICE tell you what you can and can't do- what you won't get sued for doing... then why read anything else? (Asking for a friend!) #primarycare #generalpractice

Guess where I am? A more difficult one this time. Meeting with GP trainees to discuss critical appraisal. Both #PrimaryCare and #BHT staff welcome to have a guess.
