How cool are student nurses? One of my students, preparing for their dissertation module, came to a training session straight from a night shift. Would prefer this didn’t have to happen; but student nurses often go above and beyond.

Gabapentinoids are commonly prescribed for patients with many conditions including pain. If you want to update your knowledge on this class of medications and its use make sure you sign up for the @RNPainNet Chronic Pain SIG masterclass on Nov 20th, @ipnms_ie

Our very own @Chris_Wagst presenting at the @ECMentalHealth conference in Krakow. A fascinating talk about the relationship between depression, sexualityand suicidality among male substance users in Brazil

[Chris Wagstaff @Chris_Wagst]

Brazilian men receiving treatment for substance abuse, who are depressed, are more likely to engage in risky sexual behaviours. #ECMH2024

Congratulations @alitwy @DrJenStinson @Kidspaindoc @drabbiejordan on the new edition of the excellent 'Managing Pain in Children and Young People' including a chapter I was honoured to co-author with @stevensb25 and @dharrisonCHEO

[Helen Bevan @HelenBevan]

I'm at #Quality2024 live, listening to @AmyCEdmondson talking about principles from her book “The Right Kind of Wrong – The Science of Failing Well”. Amy differentiates three kinds of failures in organisations:
1) Basic failures: caused by carelessness or ignorance
2) Complex failures: caused by a combination of multiple systemic factors, none of which would have caused failure on its own
3) Intelligent failures (the most productive kind): where organisations/teams test new ideas, at small scale to learn & develop.

Been working on these little characters for a while. Based on my thesis so currently a little dry. I'm now working on more accessible language & positive calls to action for use in healthcare settings. More resources on their way 👍🙂 #MakeSpace4Research #ConversationForKindness
