Using TIVA? Use Flows of 6L

In the UK flows of 6L are best for the environment and to save money.
This was a nice poster / infographic presented at SIVA a few years ago.

Have you started making your infographics? There's not long left!

Mandy is so lovely and excellent at her job! I’m pleased she was recognised for that!!

[TRFT Care Group 2 (Surgery) @SurgicalDivisi1]

A thank you to Mandy Beeley for the care that she gave a patient in theatre recovery after a procedure. The patient contacted the hospital to ask that Mandy was recognised for being ‘caring and lovely’.

How does oral health of adults with learning disabilities compare with the general population?

A study just published in @CDHJournal led by @jmbird_ with myself @zmarshman & Kate Jones attempts to answer this question.

We used national data from a supplementary survey conducted alongside the Adult Dental Health Survey in 2009.

We found a number of key differences in oral health, and highlight the many challenges in collecting data for this patient population.

The importance of inclusive research methods is highlighted to ensure the views and oral health needs of adults with learning disabilities are met.

Dear @DHSCgovuk & @NHSEngland,

Please find attached a letter for @VictoriaAtkins & @amandapritchard signed by over 15,000 NHS members of staff.

We protest in the strongest terms your abrupt decision to cut the mental health support that @NHSPracHealth provides to staff. 1/3

[Dr Lucy Henshall, being Lucy @DrLucyHenshall]

In 2014 life dealt me an out of the blue, terrifying, life-changing experience.
It shattered me into pieces.

My reaction to it was grossly misunderstood by my peers, and by colleagues I had previously trusted too.

I lost my health, via major surgery, and then my job

[Association of Anaesthetists @Assoc_Anaes]

(1/2) The views in this letter are abhorrent, unrepresentative of the specialty of anaesthesia and we condemn them absolutely. We reiterate our public stand against all forms of sexual harassment and our support for the NHS England’s Sexual Safety Charter.

Well done Jake!! @Research_RFT
