"It's just a job, you're paid to care"
Take it from me, not everyone can be a nurse.
To be with a family in their darkest days, when you may well be by their side for every minute of their child's most critical care, needs a special sort of person

NIHR research is shaped & funded by the public.
Our work with diverse people and communities ensures their needs and experiences are reflected in our research. To strengthen this work, we have set out new strategic commitments.

Earlier this year we published the results of our 'Public Perceptions of Research' survey carried out by @YouGov
The results made it clear that #transparency at every step of research builds confidence and trust in the findings.
Below are some of the highlights.

If we put in the same effort in culture as we do on performance & operational matters, we might make more progress
Why do we underestimate its value, confine it to a shiny strategy & treat it as fluffy?
If we want to improve then start by improving your organisation as a whole

In summary, if we REALLY want more research in the NHS, we need to stop making clinical academic careers near-impossible & start making them fun, accessible to all those with the talent/wish to follow that path, valued, supportive of the training needed. 9/9.

In a clinical trial, a key step is to ensure our outcomes will measure the potential benefit of our intervention, but we must always equally focus on the collation & presentation of potential #harms 1/7
