Nice little TV cameo for me 🤣 In all seriousness the man in this video is the definition of a #rehablegend. His inner strength and determination got him through the toughest fight of his life. The amazing team @BTHCrCU made this possible! Love my job! 💙itv.com/news/granada/2021-03…

Chair of our Trainee PAG @dremmaj_icu speaking to @Julian5News on @5_News about the pressures on #intensivecare and our wider #NHS colleagues. "It hasn't stopped being busy...we knew this was going to be a marathon, but we didn't prepare for it to be an ultra marathon..."
Doctors and nurses working in intensive care units across the country are facing extraordinary pressure. Dr Emma Jackson is a senior trainee in intensive care at a major hospital in Manchester, she told us what the situation's like there.

Family members of ICU patients demonstrate three primary emotions: Sadness, anger and fear as well as diverse coping strategies. Read the study in the October edition of #journalCHEST: hubs.ly/H0yC-Hd0

Interesting Rehab Research: 48 patients after CABG, randomized to a) respiratory & metabolic exercises, b) cycling, or c) cycling + Nintendo Wii games. In result, c showed shorter LoS, b & c had better heart rate variability. Consider small sample! pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3310…
Great work Emma👍
Huge amount of work gone into making this happen - something to look forward. Thankyou to everyone who worked together to make this happen.
