Somebody mentioned that the post was cryptic. That was Intentional. Performance improvement in a satellite hospital transfers to base cos it’s easier and Better to do things “the new way”. So it IS possible to learn from other institutions

Fascinating coffee and catchup with a paradox - an empathic and widely read surgeon. Politics,psychology, quality in healthcare and working in retirement. We covered them all @gjonitz

There’s no doubt that Dublin’s restoration award of the year 2024 goes to @coffeeangel’s resurrection of the J. O’Grady & Co. shopfront at 1-2 Lower Mount Street just off Merrion Square, that languished for years under a heap of roller shutters, signage panels and beauty board 🧵

While I agree with and support the sentiment and the science I worry that we are trying to stop the unstoppable. Bit like genetic testing on demand we Need to not just support but overeducate the public. Because we have no hope in putting the genie back the bottle
