ICU performance and delivery still amazes me. The dedication, the expertise, the fantastic care, the communication, the team work, the holistic approach. I love our team and what we stand for. #NHS70 @ICS_updates @BACCNUK @CriticalCareOT @TheACPRC #CareWhenItMatters #icurehab xitter.cf/ics_updates/status/101…

Great multidisciplinary team work is the key for patient success with difficult-to-wean patients The bunting brightens the patients environment which is also a major driver of success You have cracked it...nice work! #lanefoxunit #liberation #weaning

Lovely bit of weaning planning by my physio colleague today. Following the slow wean protocol from Lane Fox unit @NickHartThorax . Nice bit of bunting thrown in as well for ambiance! @CritTorbay @TheACPRC

Little known fact: Patients feel more trust and faith and get better faster when they feel like their doctors, nurses, therapists, and social workers all know each other, communicate together and get along friendly-like.

Replying to @CritTorbay
@CritTorbay @TorbaySDevonNHS a great awareness day run by our clinical psychology team for our front line ICU staff exploring compassion fatigue. Very thought provoking about how we need to look after our self so we can look after others. Thank you team psychology 👍🏼

#pjparalysis so important for ward based recovery both body and mind. A bit more tricky on ICU with all the lines but we are trying! @TorbaySDevonNHS @CritTorbay

We're supporting #EndPJParalysis at King's. If you're visiting a relative or friend help us get them out of bed by bringing in their day clothes and any visual/hearing aids so they can enjoy being up and dressed #TeamKings

I fully agree w/ below. On #WDAD2018 & every day, we should combine delirium & mobilization interventions to improve patient outcomes & reduce length of stay. We must never forget my mantra: "the head bone is connected to the body bone" #endPJparalysis #ICURehab @iDelirium_Aware xitter.cf/idelirium_aware/status…
Torbay Hospital teamed up with @unibirmingham to trial a virtual reality project in our Intensive Care Unit! #VirtualReality #Rehab #NHS

And talk to concerned relatives / loved ones about delirium!!! Be brave - it’ll reassure and demystify what looks and feels terrifying to them.

Delirium crosses all healthcare boundaries. Must work together and across traditional boundaries (acute - community, ICU - Ward, medicine- surgery etc.) #WDAD2018 #recoveryforall
