@Dr_WilkinCrowe @nottmhospitals @love_the_nurse Thank you so much! I’ve loved seeing the profiles of everyone nominated and honoured to be included in such a fantastic group :)

A few more profiles. We had hundreds of nominations for #InternationalWomensDay @nottmhospitals Sharing a selection of amazing women who #InspireInclusion everyday!

After some reflection I have concluded that Emergency Care in the UK has never before been under the constant, unrelenting pressure as it is now. Every shift feels like a struggle (and I’ve been doing it a while). How do you keep yourself positive on shift (and after)?

@EDNUH_recruit @EDNUH_wellbeing @teamEDnuh @malia616 @DejongeSi @TeamPaedsEDnuh Going to miss you Clare. Good luck in your next chapter! Xx

@RCullum91 @NUHPMED So glad you passed, congratulations! Thank you for being part of the conference :)

Had a great day yesterday... First presenting at the @NUHPMED #NUHMedEd23 on balancing professional and personal identity... Then finding out I'd passed my RCA exam and finally booking a three month trip next year!

I went a bit quiet at the end of #NUHMedEd23! Fantastic talk from Prof Claire Sharpe. Showed NUH CEO the fantastic work of doctors, ACPs and students at UoN and NUH. Enthusiasm and engagement from the audience. Thank you to my organising team! @NUHPMED

UMED and PMED awards at #NUHMedEd23… Great to see so many of our medical students, junior doctors and educators providing outstanding education and care.

“For one so small you make a lot of noise. I was marginalised in a single phrase.” Being reminded to be inclusive, fight against differential attainment and challenging harassment by Mrs Morris & @Dr_WilkinCrowe #NUHMedEd23

Such a challenging question on differential attainment from @Dr_WilkinCrowe and Mrs Louise Morris - followed by the privilege walk! Easy to see how so many of us have privileges that others don’t. #NUHMedEd23

#NUHMedEd23 @NUHPMED

@RCullum91 giving us a platform for fantastic discussions on personal identity and why it matters to show this to our patients and colleagues.

@edocsojo @NUHDREEAM @EDNUH_wellbeing @TeamNUH Yes! We should bring it to the #circleoftrust first. @Dr_WilkinCrowe what do you think?

Hey @dralex_hells let’s use this daily @NUHDREEAM @EDNUH_wellbeing @TeamNUH Check yourself. What is your temperature today? #NUHMedEd

“We all have aspects of our personal and professional roles that we choose to share and not share in different settings” One symbol can be taken in such different ways by patients - thanks @RCullum91 #NUHMedEd23

@Nabeela_Surgeon @ICMdoc @NUHPMED @Cazlina1975 @NicJMiller1 I teach my juniors to be the dumb ED doc sometimes!

There is merit in playing the dumb medical student/iCU consultant in calling out inappropriate behaviours…. #activebystandertraining #NUHMedEd23 #MedEd

@edocsojo We’re having a fantastic workshop on bystander training and the 5Ds model. Nurses are way ahead of the curve on this - doctors slowly catching up. Great group discussions - now to develop a curriculum, workshops, SIMs…

What is happening in other workshops? #NUHMedEd

@edocsojo @RebeccaRaven100 @faizal_faruqi @JamesPrattACP I love this! We need more throwable mics in conferences!

If you know…. You know! #NUHMedEd23 @RebeccaRaven100 @faizal_faruqi @JamesPrattACP

“Well you’re gay so it must be an STD” - an example of discrimination leading to misdiagnosis through incorrect preconceptions. @NicJMiller1 teaching us a new 5Ds model for calling it out in the healthcare setting. #NUHMedEd23

@edocsojo Great qu from @edocsojo about how to find and protect the time: 20 hours currently spent on other mandatory training. Scratch that. Only 9 x 90 minutes / year needed We have to, if for no other reason than to improve huge sickness rates! If we don’t do it, the workforce suffers.

Taking on the #balint group vs #NHSmandatory training challenge- time to change #NHS75 - a matter of time #NUHMedEd

Early entry for slide of the day from talk on burnout #RidersUnite #nuhmeded23

How to recognise: -When you start to dislike patients -Over-exaggerated normal emotions -When you lose your curiosity at work

@ClareGerada A prescription - 90 minutes 9x year for teams to meet and give support to each other. Fantastic advice for how to tackle burnout. And a positive ending “Most doctors thrive in their jobs.” #NUHMedEd23 @NUHPMED
