@Vinod_r108@RadioGenoa I am not judging this gentleman offering namaz but this is NOT what Islam asks of its followers and I say this as a Muslim. Your namaz is between you and Allah and should not be cause of distress to others around.
Around 6.5% of hospital admissions r caused by adverse effects of medicines. This rises to up to 20% in the over 65s.2/3rd of med-related admissions r considered preventable.A person taking 10 or more medications is 300% more likely to be admitted to hospital because of an ADR!

Deconditioning has devastating, lasting consequences for people in hospital and can start within a matter of hours.
But what is deconditioning and how can we collectively prevent it from happening? 🤔
📝 Dr Siobhan Lewis tells us in our latest #Blog: https://t.co/Ku6NFTflC3
What an insightful session today - challenging how we view deconditioning. There is a long long way to go but a room full of 50+ HCPs committed to make change for a positive outcome is a pretty strong start. The patients need to be on the journey of improvement with us ✨
What we do and don’t do for them can directly affect quality of life both positively and negatively. Not only theirs but of the people around them, whom they love and who love them !
“Insomnia is a 24 hour condition” every now and then you come across a session like today’s, delivered by Dr. Benjamin @CwmTafMorgannwg that serves as a powerful reminder that our patients are real people with dreams,families & careers & long terms conditions can be debilitating.
Is it sad that I’m glad to see the Anti- racism training introduced as mandatory training in #nhswales Does it mean I’ll atleast stop being asked where I am REALLY from!?
Director of Pharmacy and Medicines Management at Cwm Taf Morgannwg, Hannah Wilton, is supporting our proposal to become a royal collage.

Breaking News: Very encouraging results from the PDA survey of opinions towards the proposal from @rpharms to transition to become the Royal College of Pharmacy.
Highlights
From the total of 2155 respondents (the majority of whom are not currently members of the RPS):
* Only 16% stated that they do not see a royal college as being beneficial to the profession.
* Only 22% felt that a royal college would not benefit them in their daily practice.
* Only 12% expressed the view that a royal college would not be good for patients.
* Only 17% considered themselves unsupportive of the RPS becoming the Royal College of Pharmacy.
The RPS proposal is the result of an extensive review undertaken to examine the model of professional leadership which would best support the profession to deliver excellence in the interests of our patients.
It is a proposal which is supported by the independent advisory @ukpplboard and other organisations, and will require sufficient RPS members to vote in favour of this change.
Voting opens on 13th March.

@ABarotchi1@cannula_service@RCollEM No ACP takes the route to be a substitute to a medical professional, this narrative needs to change. I work alongside many clinicians both medical and non medical. I have never know any ACP trying to substitute for their medical peer, neither have I. We all play our own role.
@ABarotchi1@cannula_service@RCollEM Of course https://t.co/HoAcR6uZNp’s almost always application of knowledge that makes the difference during decision making. Hence not everyone with the same knowledge based degrees makes an excellent clinician. 1/2
