@messybeckie @TENkobo_21 @Dr_Done_ @gmcuk Wow! I’m not sure it is the PAs who have the fragile ego by this response!

[kerry Millard @jerrybeans]

@messybeckie @TENkobo_21 @Dr_Done_ @gmcuk Only thing you cannot do as a PA is order ionising radiation (CT scans, X-rays) or prescribe. Everything thing else you have said they can’t do, they can!

[kerry Millard @jerrybeans]

@TENkobo_21 @messybeckie @Dr_Done_ @gmcuk Agreed, 3 years studying for a health related degree and then 2 years to complete the PA masters- a relative is studying at the moment and this consistent attack has affected their mental and physical health. What happened to compassion and kindness in the health care profession

[Paulette Hamilton MP @PauletteHamilto]

Yesterday, I attended the ‘Dining for Dignity’ event with @brumshospice.

I heard inspiring stories shared by patients, their families and hospice staff about the exceptional palliative and end-of-life care provided by hospice's.

Truly heart-warming and commendable work!

For @drkathrynmannix, the way we talk about dying really does matter. She shares advice on how to approach tender conversations, ahead of an event with @StChrisHospice at @gowerst_books

Hospices, such as @jthospice in Erdington, provide vital care to hundreds of thousands of people every year. Sadly, they face serious financial challenges.

As a nurse, it breaks my heart to see our NHS in the worst state it has ever been.

[Paulette Hamilton MP @PauletteHamilto]

At the @CommonsHealth topical session, I asked the CEO of @hospiceuk what more can be done to help fund hospices in poorer areas.

Hospices provide invaluable care to terminally ill patients & they often struggle to raise the necessary funds to continue their compassionate work.

@BSol_ICS @brumshospice @AdultBchc @WMAS @uhbtrust great collaboration with system partners to look at and develop 24/7 EoL services for residents of Birmingham and Solihull.

Please value #CPR for its first-aid benefits that might save 1 in 10 people with #CardiacArrest.
Please also recognise when CPR won't help.

Most patients prefer to be cared for and to die at #home, but many families face difficulties. Our research flags struggles to access meds, equipment and support in critical moments.
