Today is World Diabetes Day. There are good days and there are bad days, but no matter how hard it gets you are more than your condition and it doesn’t define you. #WorldDiabetesDay2024 #WorldDiabetesDay #Diabetes

On the #AMU, we focus on doing the basics well. How do we inspire the next generation? #Flexibility βš–οΈ #KISS #KeepItSimpleSilly! πŸ‘„πŸ’‹
The AMU is the powerhouse of postgrad medical education, as recognised by shift of CMT to regular/repeat training in acute med & the take. Should undergrad training be similarly realigned to more exposure to acute med and formal AIM curriculum at med school? #SamDam2 #SAMsterDAM

If healthcare was a country, it would be the 5th biggest polluter globally (in terms of CO2) - why the #ECOSAM project is so important #SAMBelfast @acutemedicine

Very though provoking talk about Frailty SDEC and ties with Hospital at Home services by Dr Barbara Onen. Transport need can be a barrier for SDEC use, and difficult to preassess which patients are suitable. #SAMBelfast

#GeriatricGiants deconditioning session - interesting slides on the impact of disease related malnutrition (and sarcopenia). Thinking about "are they eating" (and refeeding if they do) is important #SAMBelfast

Interesting talk about how "routine" interventions (cardiac monitoring, IVF, catheter etc) can increase deconditioning
