Evening tickets for ‘Bodies’ — for the wonderful @doctor_oxford and @DrHenryMarsh — are still available!

Over a year we will save:
~2600 pages of paper from being printed
~30 hours of staff time

Just from building a SQL query that generates filtered & optimised MOSAIQ appointment lists for an aseptic unit.

Previously a daily list took 102 clicks, now it takes 13.

Love quick wins.

Great presentation yesterday from Simon that emphasised the essential need to explore and understand problems using data, and to work smarter rather than just opting for KPI performance management, or pushing bottlenecks further down the line. #SWCONNECT23

@JaxdDavis @FNightingaleF @System_C Thanks Jacqueline. The early career digital leaders programme was extremely useful, and I use a lot of concepts from it on a daily basis!

[Simon Underwood @Says_Simon_]

Great end to a day of constructive discussions and inspiring case studies at the @System_C clinical engagement event with a first place win for our poster on improving cross sector pharmacy communication

Good read on the recent news story about Meta Pixel tracking and NHS websites from @sam

In one of the cases patients IP addresses, Facebook IDs, NHS Trust & the medication name were shared when they accessed a HIV medication handbook.

A combination of "sub-optimal cooling systems; ageing technological infrastructure ; overly complex and distributed roles and responsibilities" led to the failure. 371 legacy IT systems. https://t.co/DfY0I1IWQY

Of all of medicine's stunning achievements, does anything beat the stone cold courage of the Ukrainian surgical team who just removed an UNEXPLODED grenade from beneath a soldier's heart?

Medicine at its most astonishing. Every detail is awe-inspiring👇
