Another great day at the @qccrn ASM. Though the only photo I took was of my glass of wine with lunch! It did help to support my growth and learning about the Delphi consensus method, an interesting and interactive research forum! What a Friday! @maheshramanan @Lauren_sciccr

A family stopped me in the corridor as I was leaving

Asked to speak to me for a minute…

Asked me if I was racially stereotyping and undervaluing their mother

I’ve never been asked THAT question before…

Today I reviewed the proof of a paper about ICU diaries and delirium, written by T. Deffner, German ICU psychologist & myself, incl how to write for/to delirious pts and why diaries can help in coping with delirium.
Will be published in Crit Care Nurs Clin N Am soon.
Stay tuned!

#icurehab crew - what are some of the best apps and ways you've used iPads for ICU patients to support rehabilitation (beyond communication) during #COVID19? e.g. cognitive stimulation, exercises, social connectedness, emotional support etc.

Just did a Sim Game session with staff, two teams thrash it out for the quickest to get equipment/drugs and set up for procedures - so much fun #simwars #MedEd #simed @maheshramanan @KatrinaCook_ @rb_bne @Jessica65193611

@KatrinaCook_ gives an excellent presentation on the value of post intensive care clinics @worldcongressic #WCIC2019. A surprising lack of data in this space.

[Katrina Cook @KatrinaCook_]

Caboolture team represents! 2 nurses presenting & 6 staff attending (you missed out on the C photo @maheshramanan ) not bad for a 4bed ICU @Doc_Yogi #WCIC2019 #melbourne

@maheshramanan All general surgical procedures.
