I like this piece from @mancunianmedic in the @bmj_latest.
Phrases like “no rehab potential” annoy me. Also references to someone being “at a new baseline”.
Do you have a baseline? I don’t.
In fact, I’m a bit fitter than I was last year…

@Laura_Does Oh god “The fear” I still remember that feeling. But you can do this Laura! You could do it for years as a B4 and we all knew it. I was only saying the other day how exciting it is that you are nearly there!

Older people deserve a fair comprehensive geriatric assessment. They might need life-saving treatment. To put delirium down to a UTI without proper assessment is simply dangerous.
Anxiety is common in older adults after having a fall, which may lead to increased risk of developing post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Immediate anxiety, ability to retain upright posture and history of repeated falls predict PTSD. #FrPC#gerotwitter https://t.co/zQOHxgATvE
