There are 133 people admitted & waiting for a hospital bed housed in our adult EDs. This significantly reduces ED capacity to assess & manage new patients!

@RonnyLerner Only !! 10 premierships in total. ( One with West too). Yep 5 as Captain Coach ( not sure if anyone else has done this).. Went to war til 24 so who knows what could have been but all I can say is amazing father. Did I say only 10 ?

[Jenny Williams OAM @BOGperformance]

Thankyou @DaisyPearce6 & Matthew Richardson for the shout out to my dad on the Anzac Round. He was very proud to be involved in the game that honoured service every year. He served on the Kiama, a minesweeper in the Pacific. Footy was always a passion & joy after war experience.

[Jenny Williams OAM @BOGperformance]

Shout out to @1395FIVEaa for asking me to help with footy commentary on the weekend. Unfortunately busy but really appreciate the offer to work with @samtugwell_15 . He's always professional & fun. @KatrineHildyard @kylie_taylor_SA change is happening.

[Mark Ralfe @markralfe]

Great idea. Jen would be a great coach. Let's do it.

@AdamRodmanMD @BIDMC_IM Love your stuff Adam. I’m telling all the Aussie docs. Clinical challenge ~ any Aussie/New Zealand stories out there?

[Jenny Williams OAM @BOGperformance]

Really enjoyed watching Adam Sandler's movie Hustle. His coaching role reminded me so much of my brother Mark. Different, genuine, generous & ability to bring out the best in people others overlook. So good to see the old basketball players involved again. So much fun.

@abcadelaide Rowan Ramsay MP for Grey " city GPs are basically a referral service". Obviously a through grasp of modern medical practice #AMA #racgp

[Adelaide Emergency Departments @AdlEmergStatus]

There are currently 45 people in ED waiting for a mental health inpatient bed. Of these, 33 have been waiting for more than 8 hours!

Choco Williams has many a story to tell, but dancing with Princess Diana has to be one of his best. 🤯

Congrats to my smart kind beautiful wife Jen Williams @BOGperformance OAM awarded for services to women's sport and psychology.

[Mark Ralfe @markralfe]

Good grief. Poor hospitals. Feel v sorry for the ward teams expected to deal with this. Admin is forcing you to strike at some point to save patient lives. GPs are with you!

[Mark Ralfe @markralfe]

Great reminder of Spond diagnosis.

It looking more and more like the Covid vaccines should be thought of as a 3 dose vaccine - not 2 dose + booster. We have to aim for >90% 3 dose over 5yo. 2 doses over 12 to ain't going to cut it.

[Jenny Williams OAM @BOGperformance]

@SAHealth @marshall_steven @abcadelaide if we are planning on visiting relatives in Vic at xmas & over 60 and @ 5 1/2 months post second AZ dose can we get booster 2 weeks early to ensure higher protection if there is enough available ? Good data in this study.

In elite sport,when bad things come out there is often the cry of "why didn't they say something at the time".The answer is complicated. 1.Players want to play so don't rock the boat. 2.They see what has happened to others who speak out. 3.There is no seconder/ thirder backup 1/2

[Jenny Williams OAM @BOGperformance]

2/2. Understanding the complexities of social psychology in group decision making & behaviours must be part of team development. Not just lectures on responsibility. Leadership matters. Not sure why ? Check out Stanley Milgram, Group think, Learned Helplessness Kahneman's WYSIATI
