Happy to have supported @cglobont on his first foray into R charting and its interactive, no less 🤩

NEW CHART by @cglobont and @eiliskeeble: How long do #Covid19 patients spend in hospital? 🦠

Many people still get seriously ill with Covid – we need a health system that can be resilient to this in the long term. https://t.co/TGd0bbiznw

NEW CHART 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿: There are large differences in the number of GPs between different parts of England, even after accounting for patient needs. But which areas have the highest number of patients per GP? See this new analysis from @LucinaRolewicz

NEW: Developments in knowledge & treatments for #COVID19 have led to a perception that coronavirus patients might spend a shorter time in hospital than was earlier the case, but is it that straightforward? @SarahScobie2 & @eiliskeeble take a closer look.

Short-stay care for children is not a new ✨ phenomenon but improvements need be made to national datasets 🔢 so that they better record this activity as well as children's care outside of hospital. (6/6)

Over the 10 years to April 2019 emergency 🚨 admission rates for children under 5 🧒 were increasing steadily 📈 but after looking more closely 🔎 @DrLizFisher and I found that the trend isn't quite so clear cut. (1/6)

[Nuffield Trust @NuffieldTrust]

🆕@eiliskeeble and @DrLizFisher analyse the reasons for the significant increase in emergency admissions for under-5s between 2009-2019. Focusing on the first 1,000 days of life is vital as inequalities in emergency admission rates persist.

We also found that differences in the short-stay services provided by hospitals 🏥, such as paediatric assessment units, could have driven some of the increase 📈. (5/6)

A heartbreaking sign of our times. This is the livestream of people turning to @CitizensAdvice for help: https://t.co/VYUNmn6TIs The search terms speak for themselves. Our website is now nearing 400,000 hits a *day* - and the underlying stats are staggering. (1/n)

[Eilís Keeble @eiliskeeble]

Lots of hard work went into this from all those involved so great to know at least someone has read it!

No. 4 – Hospital admissions of frail older people – Even after a short admission to hospital, frail older patients are at increased risk of poor outcomes. @SouthamptonGeri @GERED_DOC @eiliskeeble @UoL_Health_Sci #BJGPTop10 https://t.co/byDQryMi0s

#OnThisDay 80 years ago the Daily Herald announced that Lord Nuffield was giving a million shares to start 'a central hospital fund for the provinces', which the following year became... us, the @NuffieldTrust!

BBC reports extra £1bn for NHS capital spending this yr. There’s a catch: The £1bn is cash hospitals and other NHS trusts already have but have been forbidden to spend. They earned it last yr in incentive payments for cutting their costs [thread, 1/8ish]

A tough listen but powerful - "We're working with a system that is not designed for us."

Black women in the UK are now five times more likely to die as a result of complications in pregnancy than white women. Today we ask why. And Remi Sade, @candiceaboderin and many others bravely share their experiences. https://t.co/k5IqLPYL7C

Super exciting to accept this award with @StuartParkerNCL on behalf of the HoW-CGA research team @NuffieldTrust @GERED_DOC @RCPLondon

[Nuffield Trust @NuffieldTrust]

We think that without the decisive action set out in our report today with @TheKingsFund and @HealthFdn, NHS nurse shortages will double to 70,000 and GP shortages in England will almost triple to 7,000 by 2023/24.

Here are some of our solutions to plug the gaps ⬇ THREAD

Thought provoking ideas here on the future (or lack of) for statistical significance - "What will retiring statistical significance look like?" https://t.co/AeekCY9r7j

[Eilís Keeble @eiliskeeble]

Interesting but sad findings. Had been wondering if anyone was using HES to look at this. So great to see some published results.

[Eilís Keeble @eiliskeeble]

Really enjoyed my first foray into matched controls analysis for this piece of work, learning from the best! 🤓
