There is a growing evidence base and a number of interested healthcare professionals who are looking at #oncogeriatrics and how older adults with cancer can receive the best possible care. Read @AshlingLillis @macmillancancer blog about #frailty #BGSconf macmillan.org.uk/healthcare-…
To improve early cancer detection, we need to empower people to understand their personal risk, it’s a conversation about probability… @CMO_England #EDxConf23
The leading causes of cancer death are detectable but early detection by screening is not equitably applied and uptake remains disproportionate @manalipatelmd #EDxConf23
“We need a race and ethnicity adjusted screening programme for breast cancer” @chrysalisinit Jamil Rivers highlighting the need for precision-oncology approaches that are sensitive to race #EDxConf23
“Do not offer [cancer] screening if you can’t offer follow-up” @Steven_Patierno highlighting the importance of longitudinal care #EDxConf23
“If you don’t know where you’re going, you can’t get lost” @pmmbossuyt emphasising the importance of robust protocols for cancer biomarker research & need for system change #edxconf23
To my kind, brave nursing colleagues: I know today is difficult. Whilst the gov’t needs to recognise your value, please know that so many of us are grateful for your hard work & appreciate the sacrifices you make. I stand with you & support you. #FairPayforNursing #NoNursesNoNHS

If you want to be happy in the NHS - draw your boundaries from day 1. Build those walls as high as you need because people will insist on tearing them down.

Dear Friends
Ive been personal tutor to Maz for 3 years. She is a great student. Her story is real and she needs our support. Please be kind by either donating or retweeting. I would be very grateful. Simon

We need better message discipline and communication. We are so distracted by this that we haven’t even started to put serious energy into developing countries with no vaccines yet. This is where the big battle lies.
“Dying is not a medical event. It is the end of a lifetime; it is deeply personal and profoundly social” - @drkathrynmannix #EOLC #dyingmatters #havetheconversation #EolCornwall
It is difficult bearing witness to the deprivation of this societal involvement due to #COVID19
“We need to prepare people for #dying in the same way that midwives prepare people for labour” @drkathrynmannix #EolCornwall #EOL #havetheconversation
“A life well lived includes a death well planned” - can we ease the journey and listen better to patients’ preferences and needs? Thought-provoking conversation with @drkathrynmannix today. #EolCornwall #EOLC

"Any narrative emphasising that most deaths have occurred in people aged over 65, or with underlying conditions, seems to imply that we should be less worried. This deeply offends me on behalf of my older patients." Great article by @HelenRSalisbury via @bmj_latest
