Hi @DiabeticQueen1! We’re running a language matters workshop for our year 1 Med students at Imperial College on 15 Jan. @LisWarren recommended you. Would be great if you could be a speaker.
Calling the humanities & arts. Healthcare is about comforting & care as well as cure. How do we comfort thru PPE & limiting exposure? We need new ways to share our humanity with our patients who are scared & isolated @GiskinDay@doctorkayleigh@morley_georgina@IMEweb@jamesfm55
@wingmayK@GiskinDay@doctorkayleigh@IMEweb@jamesfm55 Already hearing lots of moral distress from nurses & others: feeling unable to provide end of life care in the same way, want to limit their exposure & visitation limited. Some use of technology had been helpful but some family find it more distressing.
Nice that everyone back home applauded NHS workers but can everyone in the future just support tax increases, a government that actually funds the NHS, pay nurses what they deserve, enable nurses to take breaks, paid study leave, under&post grad bursaries & safe staffing levels.
Please join this NHS COVID research to help understand who is most at risk and where the hot spots are so we can focus resources and save more lives. https://t.co/qYDOJ5LrjS
I suspect many folks, when they see this, will be adding Britannia Hotels to the list of businesses they will not be frequenting when this crisis is over.
@iamhelenwills Learning in partnership is a core part of our new @Imperial_SOM medical curriculum. Early but exciting days. Now planning mental health co-production workshop: redesigning mental healthcare environments with Y2 and @UniWestminster architect students
@LisWarren@ImperialMed student have produced some really great infographics promoting #LanguageMatters. Well done and Thank you to all the experts by experience for supporting the Language Matters workshop.
@Amandaepps123 Used to skip injecting at lunchtime a lot at school. Don't know the patient, but for me it was more of a choice than actually forgetting. Reasons: couldn't see the harm/benefit, wanted to play football, found injecting an inconvenience.
The other side of medicine: Learning from online patient stories https://t.co/5Z5tyBagIy via @careopinion. @imperial_SoM students use on-line patient and carer narratives to improve their understanding of illness and the patient perspective @doctorkayleigh@jamesfm55@GiskinDay
