Is medical and psychiatric care provided simultaneously in general hospitals, or do psychiatry clinicians wait until patients are 'medically cleared'?

A bunch of @StokesNeuro's trainees (from many points in time) put together a list of '10 simple rules for a supportive lab environment', inspired by the example he set. This has been a wonderful moment of reflection for me personally, as I start my own lab direct.mit.edu/jocn/article/…

"Contexts in which doctors learn to care for patients must be the contexts where doctors balance real benefit and harm. Education research within this complexity is in its infancy." Call for medical education research to 'get real' published in December issue of Medical Teacher

Definitely - it's impossible to quantify the amount of lives he helped to save through his passion and hard work driving the launch of @SaveALifeScot that undoubtedly set the foundation for the project's success flic.kr/p/B44q1M @RRG_Edinburgh
Can anyone point me to any work/discussion about educational experiences directly causing students to develop misconceptions, inaccurate mental models or flawed priorities? The closest I can find is @timbocop's "classroom gaze" concept

Nice when what we’ve said for years is now backed up by research
A nurse team leader in cardiac arrest improves CPR/Defib quality and cognitively offloads the physician
(also nice study name!)

Interesting parallels across our disciplines - the problem with work as done vs imagined vs prescribed; humans adapting work to get the job done in complex systems; measuring things that are easy to measure rather than things that are important #humanfactors #MedTwitter
Our plans never survive contact with the enemy. So why do we even bother having a plan?

If I had a magic wand, I'd like to see a culture where all institutions valued the quality of their undergrad med ed as much as their medical research (or more), & the views of students and, critically, recent grads were treated with the same respect as those of senior academics!
Merry #sunday!
Today’s simple, easy, in no way nuanced, question
If you were given a ton of money/power/privilege etc etc what SINGLE thing would you change or improve (and how?) in undergrad #MedEd?
#medtwitter #medstudenttwitter #medstudents #Medstudent
I'm not sure I can take the credit for this idea. I think it's pretty much the summary of @ccpcotton's @asmeofficial talk from a couple of years ago!

Would highly recommend @MeganReitz1's webinar on "Speaking Truth to Power" for anyone looking to follow @sherbino's advice on making change in medical education buff.ly/31GiA5j (or maybe even mine bit.ly/3dCrzcU)! Great recommendation from @ProjectLiftScot

Healthcare practitioners-I need insights into how clinical practice has changed via Covid-19. Policies & methods but also physical, social, cultural, emotional, ethical & tech changes- big & small. Workarounds, creative scheduling & use of space. Tensions.
Please RT

A hematology @tony_breu-style tweetorial:
Why does lymphopenia occur in #COVID19?
A normal WBC count and lymphopenia are seen in patients affected by COVID-19, but why it occurs has bothered me since the pandemic onset.
The potential answer is surprising and interesting.

#simdrills running daily @MyiED whilst trying to mentally prepare for what’s to come. Adding PPE into an algorithm can add to cognitive overload. Use checklists. Use a runner who is ‘clean’. Try not to anchor on COVID-19. Look after each other and be safe.

Respect isn’t conveyed by job or professional title.
I hope...
Respect is in the tone of your voice; how you work with people you respect
And how you say ‘you wanker’
