@ajayding @echoukcharity Congratulations! A fantastic achievement 👏🏽

@AlisonGeorge10 @UHSussex @DOckendenLtd @RCPCHtweets @NHSE_WTE @wesstreeting @Jeremy_Hunt @LaylaMoran @CQCProf They are highly skilled & motivated individuals who will have done years at SHO level being part of the resus team & intubating under supervision, something that's not a compulsory skill for level 1 paeds trainees any more. I am never disappointed to see them on my team

📣 After years of campaigning, Neonatal Care (Leave and Pay) is now law.

🎉 From today, parents with a premature or sick baby may be eligible for paid time off work, so they don’t have to choose between earning a paycheque and being by their baby’s side.

This is a huge step forward, but we’re not stopping here. Not all parents are covered, and Bliss will keep fighting until every family gets the support they deserve. 💙

Help us spread the word—tag a parent who might need to know this or share this post. 👇

[Bliss Baby Charity @Blisscharity]

ℹ️From April 6, parents of premature and sick babies will finally have the right to neonatal care leave and pay, giving them more time to be where they’re needed most.

💙Neonatal healthcare professionals see firsthand how vital this time is. They support parents through some of the hardest days of their lives—now, this new entitlement will help ease the financial and emotional pressure they face.

Please help Bliss ensure every family knows what they’re entitled to.

Learn more and share this with parents on your unit. ⬇️

Learning CPR on manikins without breasts puts women’s lives at risk. Could not be more proud of ⁦@inquisitiveGyn⁩ who led this ground-breaking, life-saving research. https://t.co/yja2hnH7j8

Excited to have presented some early findings from my PhD at the Neonatal Society this morning #TARGETstudy #PhD #paternalmentalhealth #FICare

[The Neonatal Society @NeonatalSociety]

Session two has finished already and unfortunately we weren’t able to tweet during it.
We heard from @RupaRubinstein who presented her work @QMUL
“Fathers and mothers face similar stress caused by separation & helplessness when their
preemie is admitted to the neonatal unit.”

[Rupa Rubinstein @RupaRubinstein]

Excited to be listening to 2 days of #FICare at the 7th International FICare conference in Glasgow today, and presenting some of my own work too!

[Rupa Rubinstein @RupaRubinstein]

@DrEmmaNash @Dan1d13 This is what I do with my GP! I confused them once when my query was easier to format into a referral letter that I wanted them to send on for a 2WW 😅

[Rupa Rubinstein @RupaRubinstein]

@dominicarr Amazing, thanks Dom!

[Rupa Rubinstein @RupaRubinstein]

@DoctorRach13 3 year plan, 1 year plan, 1 month plan and weekly plans to keep the momentum going! It's quite strange having you design your own working week and it's easy to waste time/not prioritise effectively

[Rupa Rubinstein @RupaRubinstein]

@EXPANDstudy Great idea but shame this is on national changeover day for paediatric doctors, I would have loved to attend

[Queen Mary University of London @QMUL]

@DrEilidhMaria In NICU we do CBGs as routine as babies don't have art lines for long if at all. Its definitely doable and much kinder! Great project 👍🏼

[Rupa Rubinstein @RupaRubinstein]

@Dr_DeanS If locumming in your own department to cover gaps, you could argue its not a second job, merely extra work in job 1. Check with HMRC. My internal locums are processed as extra job 1!

[Rupa Rubinstein @RupaRubinstein]

@PiratePettinger Lol, the fear that your document is corrupted forever 😅🫠

[Rupa Rubinstein @RupaRubinstein]

@Azeem_Majeed Ah yes, when I had a junior NICU colleague tell me that our patient's mother was old, when asked to clarify, he said 36 🫠🥲
