This is nice!
Unfortunately, with older patients at the hospital, we are often too stretched to really connect with them on a personal level. But when we do, there's a great deal we can learn from their wisdom and experience.

Did you know today many Noongar people are mourning the anniversary of the Pinjarra massacre? Ask us why many in the community are so devastated and heartbroken that it feels like nothing has changed.

Feedback is the communication of evaluative or corrective information about an action or event to the original source of that action or event. In medicine, it's typically a med student or junior doctor, receiving corrective information from a senior registrar or consultant.
Feedback can make or break you. Knowing how to GIVE + RECEIVE feedback is not a given, there's an art and science to it! A surgical registrar helps you brush up on your feedback skills so it actually helps you and your colleagues learn and grow medicguild.com/articles/how-… #MedTwitter

‘At the time of invasion there weren’t Aborigines here. There were people. We became Aborigines when colonisers stole our land. We have our own ways of identifying…’ -Prof Anita Heiss #AIDay2022

Just reflecting that a year ago our hospitals were full of people from migrant/lower SES communities, who worked essential jobs, had worse vaccine access, got very sick, and some died.
And I wonder - where are they now? Do they have long covid? Did they get support to recover?

When Dr Rami Dawood started as an intern he was unprepared for the difficult discussions with grieving families and their dying loved ones. To fill the knowledge gap left by med school he turned to A/Prof @drleeroyw to learn more: medicguild.com/articles/know… #MedTwitter #PalCare

#Disability & #vulnerable rights are not the excessive demands of an ‘entitled’ community. They set a minimum benchmark of equity and dignity in accessing care and support that ALL of us, at some point, will rely on. Our rights today will be yours tomorrow. That’s why we matter

My one hope is that if they get what they wish for, ahpra will have so many vexatious and frivolous claims up that the aim to „shame“ becomes useless- kinda like google reviews. Reporting by aust doctor. @duskywhalerkate @MedicGuild

An estimated 1 in 5 people will develop long COVID after their initial COVID infection. So what are the implications for people’s ability to live and work if they suddenly become debilitated? ab.co/3HSmOMP #LongCovid #MedTwitter CC @coopesdetat @brookmanknight

Not quite fair that GPs also took on huge loads during the pandemic snd in NSW, neglected for bonus… i mean, fixing medicare would b better, but also appreciation matters #COVID19 @MedicGuild @kjoh7876 @DMckateface @duskywhalerkate

From 14 Indigenous doctors in Salamander Bay NSW in 1997 to 600+ Indigenous doctors (and counting) at the 25th anniversary of @AIDAAustralia last night in Sydney. What an amazing accomplishment and incredible moment to celebrate. #blakdocs @NACCHOAustralia @IndigenousX

I hope everyone in Australia’s takes notice of the ease with which the Aboriginal flag was added to the podium at Parliament.
I could have been at any time - its omission was the deliberate decision of those in charge, just as placing it there today was a deliberate choice.
