My colleagues and my friends help me fail better. I am a better doctor because of it, as well as a better person.
Simple but so, so important if we want inclusive, brave and authentic teams! Onwards and upwards... we all make mistakes... itโ€™s what you do about them that counts!!!๐Ÿ™Œ

Have been finding the new ERC guidelines today of interest. No major changes as expected but interesting specifics. Especially the importance of correct pad placement! Education, Education!! #RCUK5thMay #resus21 @AndyFoo7 @SimandResusglos @gloshospitals

We will miss you Alli. Glad you will be just next door giving amazing care.
One of the โ€œoriginal outreachโ€ team - the lovely Alli has accepted a permanent position within our Acute Medical Unit as their Practice Development Nurse. We miss her dearly within the ACRT! What Alli doesnโ€™t know... isnโ€™t worth knowing. Good luck! @gloshospitals @grh_amu

Itโ€™s both moving and inspiring that we have great colleagues prepared to roll their sleeves up and help out! Donโ€™t underestimate power of these acts. Thank you #togetherwevegotthis
Shouldnโ€™t be surprised (as it happened in 1st wave) but the sight of hugely experienced surgeons answering the call to support @gloshospitals Critical Care in nurse/HCA roles is epitome of leadership and divisional/cross divisional working @drfrocester @Steventwigg69 thank you ๐Ÿ’™
