Trisha Radia

Thank you @RCPCHtweets for this statement about the mental health of doctors. Proud that our College supports @NHSPracHealth and is taking action to improve the wellbeing working lives of its members. @lucyjwarner @ClareGerada @DrHelenGarr @adave_NHS rcpch.ac.uk/news-events/ne…

The current increase in measles cases is hugely concerning and will mean very ill children (and adults), people with serious complications and deaths. Never too late to be vaccinated. Two doses MMR needed for best protection. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/… @iHV @RCPCHtweets @ich_ppp

As the hot break comes to an end parents & carers of children with asthma need to be aware of ⚡️Thunderstorm Asthma ⚡️ healthforkids.co.uk/leicestershire… Most importantly know your inhalers; remember to use a spacer and be aware you can take up to 10 puffs

Crash course in emergency paediatrics with @trisha_radia - getting our ST1s ready to fly through their first shifts!

A major barrier to change in health & care is the Einstellung effect. It occurs when, facing a new problem, we apply a repeated solution we have learnt from old problems, based on what we know and are comfortable with, preventing us finding a better solution. It creates a cycle of non-achievement of results. See graphic by @suyashi_dwivedi. We can address it by: 1) Bringing in different voices & perspectives on the problem. 2) Engaging everyone who will be impacted by the potential change early on, so there is ownership, not resistance, to new ways of doing things 3) Small scale testing and experimenting with new approaches. 4) Being divergent in our thinking & not rushing to convergence. 5) Using a structured methodology like design thinking where we focus on fully defining the problem. 6) Being curious to find out how other people have tackled similar problems. New solutions need new approaches. Classic article: sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Via @emollick. Additional ideas from @interacting

@drcmharris Enjoy your very well deserved break :)

Is there any better feeling than setting an ‘out of office’ on your nhs email???

Next up: @trisha_radia takes us through the highs and lows of her business cases 🤓

"Community paediatrics, speech and language and mental health services have some of the highest waiting times across the whole health system, yet seem to have been forgotten about in wider recovery plans" RCPCH Officer @CheungRonny in @thetimes thetimes.co.uk/article/nhs-sh…

Everyone has their struggles, you don’t see them on the surface. Don’t judge by appearances, be kind to one another

Aiming for perfection (the highest degree of excellence or quality in our work) is typically a bad idea. The problem? It's easy to get bogged down creating the perfect idea or optimal plan for change or exemplary report. Much better to focus on practice & progress & learning from what works: jamesclear.com/repetitions?ut… By @JamesClear Via @FerraroRoberto Graphic: @angelaterris

Such an amazing session highlighting the importance of high quality safety netting, clearly more education is needed from early on! @QualityForum @RCPCHtweets @kikupukk

@trisha_radia Thankyou Trisha, I'm OK right now. Was partly inspired to post after rewatching your "feeling lost" YouTube video!

This training year was the first time in my career I've had time off for mental health. It's what I needed to return to work in a safe sustainable way. It's what my patients needed to ensure they had a safe clinician looking after them.
