IDF @NeoSLTCEN still has some beneficial outcomes. More research needed to fully understand benefits for infants and their families.

Decreased hospital admissions when a swallow assessment was considered earlier to rule out aspiration as the cause of ‘wheeze’.
Really proud to have been part of this research project with my medical colleagues. ⁦@LondonPaedResp⁩ #paedresp2021

Have you got a prudent and innovative idea that could improve Health or Social Care services in Wales? Do you want support to try out and test this in practice? If so, watch this space, the Bevan Exemplar Programme (Cohort 7) call is coming #innovation https://t.co/xzKHAH6ha1

“The thirst is terrible, I think my swallow is bad but I don’t know why 😢” Powerful reminder during an initial assessment this week of the psychosocial impact of acute NPO decisions, even short term, and importance of communicating these accessibly to the person they affect 🤍
