All backstage captivated by @EMS_Junkie, interviewed for #smacc by @cianmcdermott, challenging us to #smashthestigma around mental health, to call out stigma-based language when we hear it, and to model healthy attitudes and behaviours towards our patients and with colleagues.

Shannah Anderson was 17 when the flu caused severe pneumonia & severe ARDS, which needed to be managed with 4 weeks of #ECMO in the ICU. Her parents were told to say their goodbyes because she only had a 20% chance of survival. Get your flu shot! #flustory #SMACC #VaccinesWork

“Burnout- it’s not the hours that cause it. It’s the view”. @jamesmaskalyk speaking words of truth. #smacc

“I remember getting the tag priority one and I thought... well this is good.” A moment of humour in a tear jerking reality crashing down talk from Gill Hicks who was in London 7/7 bombing and saved by pre-hospital care. #SMACC

Me: How are you today?
Elderly Patient: Good. I was reading that doctors are stressed and 400 of you suicide every year. How are you?

Hi @RealHughJackman, @davemm15 and I are two emergency doctors and we were wondering if you and maybe @chrishemsworth could help us make a CPR video along with @HeartAust and @ARC_resus like @therealvinniej has in Britain? (see: https://t.co/eZkFhHSA1v)

This patient was shocked for "V-Tach". Rate is too slow for V-Tach!

This is the classic Sine Wave of Hyperkalemia. K+ was 9.2 !
