👏 @AilsMcCabe leading this MDT meeting & presenting results of her study on older patients with covid19 pre vaccination programme. Older patients were less likely to have typical symptoms & had both higher mortality & longer length of stay. In keeping with international data👏

Fantastic presentations today from @GediTuh @ed_tuh thanks to @AilsMcCabe for organising the Irish #GEM collab. Excellent representation of team work and initiatives in @ed_tuh 👏🏻 @LouiseK80973341 @puddlesrgr8 @OrlaBoyle_SLT @vickymeighan

[TUH ED @ed_tuh]

Great review of #socialprescribing by @GediTuh, so important in the context of #covid19, social isolation, bereavement in the covid era & coping with chronic disease. 4-6 week intervention shows promising improvement in self reported patient satisfaction 👍 #TUHworkingtogether

[TUH ED @ed_tuh]

Fantastic quality improvement project from @LouiseK80973341 @GediTuh. Introducing a pressure ulcer tool box @ed_tuh. Providing easily accessible departmental cognitive aids for picking the right dressing and having a trolley to access them easily has improved our patient care 👏
