As periods of unconsciousness become frequent, and the dying person doesn't wake up for meds, it's time to switch to other routes [e.g. syringe drivers] for symptom control, so the peaceful, gentle process of ordinary dying isn't interrupted by discomfort. #MakingDyingBetter

CPR is not a treatment for #ordinarydying. Every instance of futile CPR - which is what will happen if nobody has sorted out the protection of a DNACPR for someone whose life is coming to an end - is a tragedy. Please, doctors, nurses, patients, families - #havetheconversation.

Breathing changes at the very end of life - breaths become cyclical, going fast and slow with pauses. It may sound like they are panting - they aren't, it's just the respiratory centre in the brain shutting down. #MakingDyingBetter

1st shift back after 6 weeks off and I am a level of tired only associated with 12 hr shifts. How quickly the well rested feeling dissipated!

Just as I got back into swimming regularly and started going to the gym for the first time in forever to help my physical and mental health, I fracture my little finger & can't really do either. However am off work so a bit of a stress break?

A further contribution to #VisionZeroLDN week
My key message: distractions kill, put down your phone while using London's roads
1 Jul 2022
To mark Vision Zero week, I spoke with @Ldn_Ambulanceβ© paramedic Natalie about road crashes and the voluntary work she does to reduce road danger.
βThe speed limits are there for a reason. Red lights are there for a reason,β she said. standard.co.uk/news/london/lβ¦

A 3am coffee this morning sure seemed like a great idea but I think between that and the jackhammer outside my window all day, I go into nightshift tonight with very little sleep on board π΄
