We had a joyful, collaborative time with @lucypgeridoc
Whats our direction? Bringing humanity back to medicine through enquiry into what matters most 💕
How do we get there? Harnessing the potential of our ageing population by involving older people and caregivers as teachers 🍎
We're so delighted to be attending an outreach event today set up by @GraceInvaders to talk about shaping ageing education, kicking off shortly with a talk from @lucypgeridoc

Another fantastic #Keynote from Dr Geoff Wong @asmeofficial #RME2024 - #MedEd research is complex, requiring a realist approach 💡 with an appreciation of context and mechanisms, and not assuming a linear relationship between intervention and outcome/change 🤩

Really fantastic start to @asmeofficial #RME2024 #keynote from @pim_teu about meaningful, and impactful #MedEd research. Particularly interesting discussion about outcome vs growth based curricula - lots of food for thought moving forward with the @GeriSoc UG curriculum 🤔💭

Wow. Just wow. *Fantastic* session on harnessing #compassion through #SchwartzRounds with the @warwickmed team 🥰💕 what a thought-provoking and inspiring way to end my time at this year’s #ASME2024. In our broken and burnt out NHS it can be hard - I leave feeling encouraged 🫶🏻
