RNSH Emergency Dept

What a great choice. 👍🏻🍾

We already know #nurses are saints, but this raises the bar. After a dash to @RNSED yesterday (thx @NSWAmbulance) I found myself next to an old bloke who hadn’t eaten. He told his nurse how lonely he was, so she stopped what she was doing & pulled up a chair... 1/2

We are doing fine... thankful to all of our great staff who are just doing what we have to do.

Glad we could be of assistance. 👍🏻

Been a long time coming, well done.

I see a lot of unusual things at work, but this probably takes the biscuit. Most ED docs won't see this many in a career 🤣

Every job involving interpersonal contact involves difficult interactions and communication. Especially in medicine, where both stakes & emotions run high. onthewards.org/managing-diffi… #communication #patientcentredcare #tipsfornewdocs #juniordoctors #medicalstudents #meded

Congratulations on Queen’s Birthday Honours A/Prof Richard Walsh for significant service to medicine, anaesthesia and perfusion, and to professional societies @ASA_Australia @ANZCA @wfsaorg. Also congrats Dr David Fahey for services to @stjohnnsw and to medicine in anaesthesia.

Flu vaccine has never been so important! @RuralDoctorsAus and @ACRRM are reminding people that you absolutely don't want to get the flu on top of #covid19australia. Contact your local medical clinic to make an appointment as soon as it is available. rdaa.com.au/documents/item…

Good luck to you all. You’re lucky to have taken annemarie from us.

hey @NEJM, I fixed this for you. (more: bit.ly/2thMn7T)

I report about health almost every day. But it’s overwhelming the impact that simple moments of kindness of care can have on you, like the care I received from a nurse at Royal North Shore Hospital when I had a bad reaction to a test. @nswnma @NthSydHealth @BradHazzard

FACRRM Dr Sandi Dawson spent her youth in the Cape York Peninsula, and it was the attraction to rural living, combined with the realisation that she could potentially follow in her mentors’ footsteps that encouraged her to undertake RG training. >> bit.ly/2skgXgj

Favorite Peter Rosen quote: "Nobody woke up this AM and decided to ruin your day. Don't get angry at your patients. Don't get frustrated. Happiness is YOUR choice." RIP Dr. Rosen, the father of EM.
