@PatrickWaterso1 Congratulations Patrick - well done, I’m sure the students really appreciated your time

But this “Do Not Touch” label was on everything - in a room full of ergonomists, perhaps that’s knowing your audience…

It was the launch of the @CIEHF 75th Anniversary Exhibition launch - The theme of “Think Human” was the backdrop of a gathering of some amazing Human Factors practitioners and friends :-)

Fair play - if there isn’t enough time in the school day, no matter what age, then there is too much work. We insist on work during work hours, we should push for the same for pupils!

@premnsikka @LeftGrassroots It requires complete overhaul and taken back into public ownership

@premnsikka @LeftGrassroots I don’t think profit is the magic bullet - Welsh Water is not for profit and still is broken

If @LouisReesZammit has been released by Chiefs as reported then I’m so sorry for him - but does that mean the @RamsNFL pick him up - that would be awesome if so ;-)

[CHFG @ClinicalHF]

The Patient Safety Commissioner has launched a public consultation on a draft of "seven principles of better patient safety" They seem very sensible and it's hard to disagree with any of them. The Clinical Human Factors Group have responded to the consultation supporting the principles while stressing the importance of human factors science and systems thinking to ensure they don't just remain as principles but become part of the way work is done and the way care is delivered.
The consultation survey is at https://t.co/WunbtyN1z6
Whether you are a patient, service user, healthcare worker, care deliverer, campaigner or interested for any reason - have your say too.

@thiswillstick @ta_mills @LeftGrassroots I guess until they have had time to make a change, neither of us can say who is right. So maybe we review this next month?

But I’m curious - if you are sure they won’t make any changes - who do you think would have?

[Barry Kirby @Baz_k]

@SusanFairweathe @ta_mills @LeftGrassroots Anyone saying that the winner didn’t win because they want to play different rules after the result does not merit being taken seriously. Some of us live in the real world.
