@JamillaHussain1 @PrueLeith I’m glad that space remains constructive and safe

[Gurpreet (she/her) @ggupta]

@JamillaHussain1 @PrueLeith *cost and safety of speaking

[Gurpreet (she/her) @ggupta]

@JamillaHussain1 @PrueLeith Not blaming or diminishing your activism in the space. But we both know that cost and safety sits on a spectrum for all.

[Gurpreet (she/her) @ggupta]

@JamillaHussain1 @PrueLeith And many of those pro-AD pall care Drs ime have issue with the bill’s current form also. 2/2

[Gurpreet (she/her) @ggupta]

@JamillaHussain1 @PrueLeith I don’t think you are ‘one of the few pall care drs that leans towards being pro-AD’. Think there are actually many more. The space (especially this one) is filled with such disdain from many anti-AD clinicians that raising your head for a nuanced discussion is costly 1/2

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

Psychological safety is not about withholding criticism. It’s about enabling people to speak up without fear.

The goal is not to lower our standards. It’s to replace knee-jerk reactions with open-minded consideration.

All ideas are welcome. Not all views are equally valid.

@Nyimoss @johnmacartney @KateWoodyBath @Ben_Bowers__ @LOROSEducation @PalliativeUhl @rgh4inclusion @MarieCurieEOLC I find ‘loved ones’ doesn’t quite do justice to the spectrum of connections we have but yet to find the optimal alternative. I look forward to listening and be guided to something suitable.

What an absolute mess!

[RCP Resident Doctor Committee @RCP_RDC]

We’ve responded to the statutory education bodies and @GMCUK urging them to reconsider the decision to withdraw candidates applying for current HST places due to the 2023 MRCP(UK) part 2 exam results error. We’re deeply disappointed at their approach: https://t.co/zslAQ9Ak08

[Amara Nwosu @amaranwosu]

In this study, we analyzed urine samples from lung #cancer patients to help predict when a person is in their last 30 days of life. This will hopefully help improve care by identifying people who need #palliativecare.
