Really pleased to be a prize winner from yesterday's @KeeleMedSchool medical education conference. Shared the work we at @CombinedNHS have done with local police forces and cadets to provide CAMHS education and de-escalation skills training.

Great time this morning at Fenton Manor Sports Complex for the Lego event. Some amazing pieces on display but seeing Baby Groot riding a vesper was a standout moment

@JessicaLDNurse @CombinedNHS No problem. Next time we're going to focus on autism, potentially medication to support difficulties associated with it and safe prescribing

My first (and hopefully not last) piece of research has been typed up... now time to wait for marking ⏳
Excited to soon share my findings about how we can better teach medical students about the incredibly important topic of eating disorders #MedicalEducation

@doctor_jef Service user feels far more transactional in nature. Client suggests choice. I prefer patient as it is associated with caring too which is a major reason for going into the health CARE profession.

I’m not suggesting one is right or wrong, but when did our patients become clients? Why have we felt the need to switch to this new terminology?
