Great “stop the pressure” day on the ward today, raising awareness of pressure ulcers.

Vascular Surgery Rules of Engagement 1. When talking to families postoperatively, explain your biggest concerns about the case — no one likes surprises. 2. When you talk to patients, always do it sitting down. 3. If you do it perfect it might work. #vascularsurgery

Medical question: recently saw someone resuscitated with 0.9% NaCl instead of Hartmann’s because they were lactaemic and Hartmann’s has lactate in it… is that a thing? I’ve always been taught a balanced crystalloid is still better/lactate is a harmless molecule?

This may not seem that big an achievement to some, but this week concluded a whole month without an attributed pressure ulcer on a Vascular Ward. Given our patients complexities, what a phenomenal effort from the team 🥰 @SarahC_RN @Surgical_Matron @DNDTeam_Surgery @HospitalTvn – at Walton-le-Dale, England
