This winter is already shaping up to be horrendous. Those that are least able to endure long waits - the frail, elderly or vulnerable - suffer the most as this article highlights👇🏻

Patients are dying in corridors and others left for hours in soiled clothes, says Age UK.

It was a privilege to be involved and to share the space and conversations with @emccdoc @EMManchester @ICUltrasonica @NHSmallwood etc. A true multi-disciplinary approach to PoCUS. James Sen led & marshalled us so well. Hoping for future collabs & a unified POCUS group in the UK!
Glad to see a consensus statement by FPHC on prehospital Ultrasound. A step forward in defining standards and incorporation of PHUS in prehospital care @casualtysrus @EMManchester @TomJelic

Very sad to hear of the passing of Professor Douglas Chamberlain. He was the founder of the paramedic profession, changed cardiac arrest management with defibs and founded the Resus Council UK. How the Emergency services work currently is down to his work and implementation. RIP

Patients with chronic pain present challenges for emergency clinicians who (myself especially) are largely undertrained & under-resourced to manage them effectively. I made this draft reference to guide my approach which I'm awating expert feedback on. Feel free to critique

This quote regarding compassion fatigue is nearly 30 years old, but it’s hard to imagine a time in healthcare when it has been more pertinent…

For anyone interested, here is the link to the finalised article POCUS reduces by a fair way the demand on downstream radiology services Open access so share widely! https://t.co/WSmGnDNEVh
Pretty chuffed with this work. We show that having POCUS trained clinicians performing and reporting scans as part of acute care leads to a dramatic reduction in departmental radiology requests. We help not hinder! More reasons to embed this in daily practice where possible...

Pointers in a presentation are pointless. Construct and deliver your presentation such that there is no need for a pointer; it is pointless.

Without further ado. Introductions set the stage. Let's do them right. https://t.co/k8zkQFWLBw Please read and share widely

Without further ado is just a phrase. Introduction of a presenter defines the presentation to follow. It should have brevity and with kudos
