Right now I'm working for the @MATTS_Study. @sheffielduni are working with 4 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🚑 services to develop a pre-hospital triage tool to identify patients who would benefit from Major Trauma Centre care, rather than their nearest hospital. Much more info at: sheffield.ac.uk/matts

Wow hot already today!! Lots of people out and about for a walk and who can blame you! Parking can be a big issue in Edale. The Edale charities carpark is open today 🤩 Help local charities out and keep the roads… instagram.com/p/CDlae5CnRU4/…

Morning all, Edale (Peak District) is super busy again today, car parks overflowing & people gathering in large groups, this is not social distancing. Please urge your friends/family/Facebook followers to act sensibly, try to go to less frequented outdoors spaces (1/2)

Yesterday I stopped all @CommsC4TS research activities (except follow up of existing patients) and told my academic teams to work from home as much as they are able. Posting in case this helps others make some of these big decisions. We're at a critical point on the curve.

Interesting insight into the vast variations in major trauma tools across the UK and the world!! Can a single tool improve patient outcomes?
