Attention, deprescribers 💊
What are 10 critical #deprescribing articles you should probably know about?
@wadddee and I have asked that very question and compiled a list of our top 10 #deprescribing articles essential for all deprescribers! 👇
@LellyOboh We found remote reviews dont work for complex cases, especially for those without technology - nothing beats the F2F visit for getting a full picture and giving a much needed human touch. Enforced isolation is so hard for the older people in our communities.
Difficulty getting in&out of the bath? Struggling to prepare your meals? Putting your socks on becoming a challenge? DON’T continue to struggle! Call our #NHS#OTs to discuss solutions or book an appointment to try out equipment to regain your independence! #SmallChangeBigImpact

There is a lot of discussion of vaccines at the moment. For those who would like to understand how vaccination developed, and how vaccines for childhood diseases and emergencies including COVID-19 are used, I gave an online Gresham talk on this, link below.
We are immensely proud to be part of this success delivered by an amazing team @RDEhospitals and colleagues across the region and made possible by our selfless volunteers, thankyou to you all @RDEResearch @NIHRSW @Novavax
