.@ayres_t speaking about leadership at #skied2023 - with inspiration from the All Blacks. Want to know more? Read ‘Legacy’ by James Kerr

Recycling in ED will also save money! #skied2023 @EMExeter

Leadership styles in EM can revolve around empowering teams to work well in a VUCA environment @ayres_t #skied2023 (volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity)

Final talk of day 3 at #skied2023 and @anna_shekhdar introduces @DrRayHM sharing sadness, reality and some ideas around recognising the truth of how hard it is to cope as doctors sometimes

The fabulous @ashleighlowther talking about the walk in trauma patient. She asks: How do we assess the risks and impact of not making a trauma call? Is self presentation a form of triage? How do we pick out a seriously injured patient from the waiting room crowd? 4/ #skied2023

“Life is like a bathtub” says @DefProfEM at #skied2023 We do need to know what to do with a patient trying to bleed to death, even though it is a rarer event than frailty trauma. Put the plug back in, think about what blood products you are giving (including whole blood)

Listening to @DefProfEM speaking about the @SWiFT_trial and emphasising the importance of evidence based medicine - he makes an excellent point ‘If life seems to have more questions than answers, try to be the one who asks the questions’. #skied2023

After the break, we are now listening to Dr Michelle Penn speaking empathically with us about using humanities in Medical Education at #skied2023

If anyone is watching #skied2023. Let me summarise… mountains, snow, very high quality education, meeting new and old amazing & inspiring colleagues. It stands for: Sustainability+Knowledge+Inspiration in ED, but it’s not just for EM. 10/10 would recommend. @SkiedConference

Considering how to use humanities to facilitate educational impact in medical teaching. #skied2023 The example demonstrated was a song regarding domestic violence. Powerful. Well used. Careful consideration required.

At #skied2023 @t_odbert inspires us with tales of Simulation Training in Nepal, what a morning!

So what could work in frailty trauma? #skied2023 ⁦@lowe_fionna⁩ A national study of 23 major trauma centres to investigate the effect of a geriatrician assessment on clinical outcomes in older people admitted with serious injury in England (FiTR 2) thelancet.com/journals/lanhl…
