Thanks everyone for lovely messages & for all the support getting promoted to Prof @lifecourse_KCL It’s always a team effort & reflects the hard work of many, especially all in team @POPS_GSTT but many others too! Here’s my 85 year old parents on holiday, just after I told them!!

Ignore the minor name badge typo but congratulations to PROF @JKDhesi! Great start to a rainy Friday for me - hearing about the roll out of POPs across SEL and nationally; and being challenged to think differently about how we support our complex patient cohorts… 🙏🏻🙏🏻

"If we can get more older people seen by the right people, in the right place, first time around, then this will reduce demand and free up NHS resource."

This is the best.
I find it tricky to keep the detail of physiology of the basal nuclei in my head.
Mike presents a comprehensive summary in about 2 minutes. I’ll be able to remember it and use on my ward rounds and in clinic to look (even more) brilliant.
Thankyou 😬🧠👍🏼

✅ Indirect pathway
✅ Dopamine

Never has there been so important a time to transform the surgical pathway. Today @CPOC_News publishes comprehensive evidence that perioperative care delivers higher quality clinical outcomes, reduced costs and better satisfaction for surgical patients. bit.ly/35EYzAr
