I'm deeply concerned that people have been arrested while just preparing to peacefully express their support for a Republic, a view held by 25% of the public. This must stop. It's a basic democratic principle that people have the right to peacefully express their opinions.

If a monarchy cannot survive some people objecting peacefully to it with placards in the rain, then there is nothing substantial there to survive.

Republican protesters being arrested and their placards confiscated ahead of the coronation.

Beautiful piece on grief from my sister: https://t.co/AZ6RQtH3aa @Lucy_Selman @drpoco you might find the series of blogs interesting.

GPs found the EMIS template easy to use and the report straightforward to produce, but as it took a few minutes to do each report they preferred to use it only for patients with memory problems or complex follow up.

Patients found the report reassuring and empowering. It helped them remember the advice and gave them something to refer to and share with family.

Second paper from the COAC study now published, on development and realist evaluation of a summary report given to patients at the end of GP consultations. @DrVictoriaW @capcbristol @BNSSGResearch @prof_tweet https://t.co/smBoi33VgD

The very wise @DrLucypotter on partnership working: "We are all humans with a variety of needs … we don’t fit into boxes where you can fix our substance misuse and then attend to our mental health and then our physical health and then our housing."

Important, great work by @DrLucypotter focused on how services can better meet the needs of street #sexworkers. @capcbristol

Administrators found the process took a chunk of time each day, so more work is needed to automate it.

Patients who used it found more issues were discussed, support offered and time used more effectively. It was useful for patients who find GP consultations difficult, have a concern they find difficult to voice, have multiple layered or complex problems and who are tech-savvy.

Delighted to be taking this forward with the ARC/AHSN through ReCon in WOE (investigating impacts on workforce) and the ORCER Maturity tool for remote consultations in the SW with @ARC_West @WEAHSN @sw_ahsn @Peninsula_ARC @danlyus @ProfJohnMacleod @JPHorwood

But remote consultation also had great benefits and clinicians were keen not to lose these....

As consultation rates returned to normal by July 2020 and patients began to consult with more complex problems, GPs found remote management can be more time-consuming, clinically challenging, and less satisfying.....

Despite a drop in GP consultations overall in March/April 2020, contact rates increased or stayed the same for patients who were older, shielding, or had poor mental health.

We found that the shift to remote GP consulting was helped by low consultation volumes in March and April 2020.....

So pleased that so many people found our #RAPCI paper useful on the implementation of remote consultation in UK primary care at the start of the pandemic.

Is anyone aware of any literature on the implementation or outcomes of three-way consultations - e.g. patient speaking to both GP and specialist, or hospital consultant / patient and tertiary specialist on the same video call? @trishgreenhalgh

How did GPs manage and maintain face-to-face contact during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic? Out today, a longitudinal #qualitative investigation in UK #primarycare. Read the full story here: https://t.co/Qn4TpkK8YD
