"Never-words are conversation stoppers". This is an excellent article, probing the use of language and its impact on patients, families & caregivers.
My friends and I think a lot about what language to use with seriously ill patients and how it impacts healing. Sometimes we write about it for @MayoProceedings ❤️🩹@ProfLenBerry @gfgrafton

2/2 And now she - a thoroughly working class woman, mother at sixteen and former care worker - is deputy prime minister of the United Kingdom
Wherever your politics lie, you have to admit it's a massive achievement

Pregnant? Congratulations!
From 1st September, you can protect your baby from the single commonest reason infants are admitted to hospital, which is absolutely tremendous news.
Speak to your midwife or GP about RSV vaccination.

Statement on Dr Sarah Benn from @ERunswickBMA :
"We are very concerned that implementation of the current fitness to practise framework could potentially restrict Dr Benn’s ability to continue to be registered as a doctor, for taking part in peaceful protest..." (1/5)

NHS England is rolling back its mental health support for NHS hospital staff. No new patients will be accepted....given the parlous state of services and how some staff can be broken by their work this seems a backwards step.

She is absolutely correct. The UK boasts the sixth largest economy in the world and yet a catalogue of sustained policies have led to a situation where more than 4.3 million of our children are living in poverty. That's nothing short of a disgrace.

Happy International Women’s Day.
I’m fortunate to have brilliant women in my life as friends and colleagues along with male allies prepared to stand up and be counted.
Keep on keeping on #IWD2024 #wingwomen

This is the diarrheal ward in a pediatric hospital in Peru.
I was there during the height of diarrhea season.
It was totally empty after being overflowing a few years before.
The difference?
The rotavirus vaccine.

Those aren’t just any buttons our #ElfAndSafety Champ has found. They’re button batteries and they can badly hurt or kill a child if swallowed. That’s why you should keep all spare and even flat batteries well out of reach of small children.
