@DrBenLovell Important to also recognise that no one looks great or capable in hospital gown or pyjamas and in bed, get people up and dressed in their own clothes and they suddenly become themselves again! Hair done, teeth in, hearing aid and glasses on...it's magic 🥳

@EM_Dr_Jacklin @mancunianmedic Our virtual health team @HHFTnhs can do that! They facilitated a five way conversation between the Frailty virtual ward, the Frailty Team and a paramedic who was in the house with the patient and their family to develop a shared plan and kept the patient at home 🥳 #teamwork

20-30% of patients in hospital have delirium. Many are missed so we need to sceeen - using a 4AT. prevention is better than cure. We need to systematise good care for patients at risk of delirium. Here’s what to do

Words are a powerful thing that can shape views, perceptions, beliefs & expectations.

How we talk about patients can dehumanise them & impact how we see them.

Think about your words #PatientCare

@Keirwales My favourite experience was when the lady I visited who made me a cup of tea, as she handed it over "I've put a dash of whisky in as it's cold outside" 😳

[💙Jo May💙💚 @JoOT2000]

@EstherClift @mancunianmedic I would love to see this happen! It's one of the th8ngs I'm working towards 🥰
