#HumanFactors science has so much to offer to #PatientSafety - if you see the misunderstanding that #HumanFactors is the cause of safety issues or only about teamwork, please point your colleagues to @StevenShorrock https://t.co/Pyujz20MMF and https://t.co/9PlioggxiF @CIEHF

@JKDhesi @GeriSoc Agree wholeheartedly with the principle, but surely it’s more than 75% - only 19% of men and 13% of women die before 65 years in UK?

Really concerned that this blog contradicts NICE CG161 falls prevention guidelines and the World Falls Prevention guidelines https://t.co/tN738gtrPm - absolutely no place for Morse or STRATIFY or other falls prediction tools in hospital falls prevention. @mancunianmedic

.@RCEMpresident and also how the strategy might help the 1025 who were not offered a MH bed or MH community care after ED/hospital attendance?

Self-harm remains neglected worldwide, with at least 14 million episodes yearly.

Experts urge policy action on societal drivers & health services’ response in a new Lancet Commission.

@mbrrace By learning from these women's deaths we will improve care and prevent deaths in the future, which is the positive action to take away from the day. Thank you to all the volunteer midwives, doctors and nurses who have assessed women's care, lay summary writers and @mbrrace staff

No snippet I can cut would do justice to the scope of this - strongly recommend reading the whole, and rich food for thought for practice as well as research https://t.co/MnCyTV8QrC

Mists and mellow fruitfulness

[Frances Healey @FrancesHealey]

Great review - and the summary is probably little if any difference. Not too surprising to me given underlying causes of falls in older people - let’s redouble efforts on tackling medical/medication related causes of falls, bone health, and strength and balance training.

[Amy Drahota @AmyDrahota]

Our new @CochraneLibrary review is out exploring if #education and/or psychological interventions (e.g. #CBT #coaching) can reduce #falls

@TaraJLamont @maxwele2 Thanks! It’s a lovely piece of work summarising the positive and negative. I’d love us to move the debate on to how we can create standards that are minimalist, sensible, realistic and pitched for a complex, multi-morbid, individualised world.

@mancunianmedic @lucy_uo @alisonleary1 Over and above the risk scores, overuse/misuse of checklists, tragic example here “a box had been consistently ticked” https://t.co/vQJR1A01Rq

@EmilanWoo Hope you all had a lovely day celebrating, the cake is splendid!
