We were lucky enough to be asked to present our work on Martha's Rule implementation alongside a colleague from Northampton General at the @ACC_EastMids conference. It was great to share the positive changes we are making to give our patients and their loved ones a voice.
Great morning at the @ACC_EastMids annual conference. Really interesting presentations and an extremely powerful patient story from a lady who was on ITU @KettGeneral
Interesting morning so far at the @NOrF_CCO_RRS conference. Lots of discussion on #marthasrule & how adult CCOT can support paediatric services. #call4concern
Great engagement on our Respiratory Study Day yesterday, delivered to nurses from our surgical wards ๐ซ We covered different oxygen delivery systems, including HFNO, demonstrating our new Airvo3 devices and then got hands on with FONA daily and emergency management.
Trailblazing schemes at both KGH and NGH are supporting a new NHS plan to listen more carefully to the families of sick patients. For more see: https://t.co/tNdbcC3x3z
We are proud to have successfully implemented #Call4Concern at @KettGeneral in February 2022. Over 2 years, we have received 80 calls, receiving overwhelmingly positive feedback from patients and their loved ones on the difference the service makes.
The implementation of Marthaโs Rule will take a phased approach, beginning with at least 100 adult and paediatric acute provider sites who already offer a 24/7 critical care outreach capability. We will soon be asking for expressions of interest to be part of the first phase.
The NHS is rolling out a patient safety initiative called 'Martha's Rule' which enables patients and families to seek an urgent review if they are worried about their or a loved oneโs condition.
This will undoubtedly save lives in the future. https://t.co/kH8MpDSjyp
Couldnโt be more proud that our article has been published in @BJNursing ๐ฉ๐ปโ๐
Itโs such a privilege to share the incredible journey and impact of launching #Call4Concern ๐ซถ
Hopefully supporting other teams to implement this vital service for patient safety๐ค๐ผ

Interesting talk on sustainability in Critical Care at the @ACC_EastMids conference. Definitely came away with ideas for reducing waste & improving our carbon footprint.
Our team have been pomoting #RestartAHeart@KettGeneral today.
Lots of great feedback from visitors who we've shown how to use an AED & do CPR โก๏ธโค๏ธ
@ResusCouncilUK
Anyone can use a defibrillator โ they tell you exactly what to do.
CPR and defibrillation within 3 - 5 minutes of collapse can significantly increase the chances of survival.
