Our cardiovascular risk score calculator for people with severe mental illnesses is available to use online https://t.co/QOPvKYG3ZE

Blood tests are not needed to calculate the risk score!

My thanks too. 4 major studies across multiple sites in england all finding : people with #psychosis want & will engage with help for healthy lifestyles and physical health. Next up is finding personalised effective interventions. @Asifmbachlani @skalidindi1 @felly500 https://t.co/UEqQglWvBH

[The Mental Elf @Mental_Elf]

I had a very fruitful day at #PrimroseWorkshop Big thanks to @osborn_ucl and the @UCLprimrose team for organising such a high quality meeting. Also thanks to @FGaughran & @RichardIGHolt for great talks, and to @DrG_NHS @SimonGilbody @in_psych et al for the fab conversation! 👏👏

[The Mental Elf @Mental_Elf]

My blunt summary of #PrimroseWorkshop so far

It’s difficult to help ppl w severe mental illness improve their physical health. Lots of high quality research has been funded & completed, but how do we translate what we know to the real world?

[The Mental Elf @Mental_Elf]

Our next speaker is @RichardIGHolt who will be talking about the @STEPWISE_Trial which is looking at a group-based lifestyle education programme vs. usual care to reduce weight in people with schizophrenia https://t.co/xTqreKTSXr #PrimroseWorkshop #Obesity #Psychosis
