Together with the social determinants of health, and their mutability, we should consider how we can better teach the social determinants of excellent care, including Health Care Workers' wellbeing & empathic behaviours.

IT'S NOT YOU, IT'S COVID. Jill Worsley and I made this film with my aunt Psychotherapist Nicola Glucksmann in the hope it may be helpful to NHS staff, frontline workers. Pls share to anyone feeling overwhelmed https://t.co/r12o5auiF7 @Relate_charity@NHSuk@samaritans@PTSDUk
@drcollini The Mental Health First Aiders can't currently be contacted by phone & don't call staff up; & there aren't very many. The idea would be to widen the pool of colleagues willing & able to offer support to each other.
Thinking about how NHS staff support each other...
Has anyone heard of a phone line for staff to speak to colleagues at their own hospitals for social support & info about services available to them? If so, pls let me know.
If not, would it be helpful? Would it add anything?
The webinar is there in the perhaps optimistic scenario that people have time to intend.
Everyone also welcome in their days off but R&R might best be prioritised (people must judge for themselves).

A stitch in time... or a crafty break when you can take it.
This is a well-meaning nudge and a nice offer for staff at @WhippsCrossHosp
Here's hoping people can get a moment to recharge.

#selfisolation day 6 and @EDHomerton are running a #COVID19 intubation simulation live streaming so I can be prepared for when I get back to work at the weekend! Well done @NHSHomerton
The food & drink discounts supporting NHS staff make a significant positive impact on morale. It would be wonderful if catering companies like @elioruk that work in hospitals could offer something similar, & for their staff too. This simple sign of gratitude would really help.

Attending the excellent #DEMEC2019 at Manchester Central. Realised last time I was here was over 25 years ago. It was called GMEX then and I was at a James concert. Times change!
Brilliant keynote by David Hirsh at #demec2019 giving scientific underpinning for interleaving medical education. Food for thought that he made eminently retreavable!
@CountryKidsDoc @AlastairMcA30@dfreedman7 My hope is that the tougher the canary, the less likely it will be to put up with its dangerous working conditions!
@CountryKidsDoc @AlastairMcA30@dfreedman7 Totally agree that toughening the canaries won't solve the problem & worse, focusing on the canaries (& blaming the victims) might distract from fixing the mine. But hey, there's nothing wrong with tough canaries!
