Hi, ER Doc here.
I use this account to teach people about medical emergencies. It’s my 10 year Twitter anniversary today and would love to hit 650K followers to be able to reach more people.
Can I get some follows and RTs to help me get there?

This little one is having a solo adventure on the @greateranglia Ipswich-Peterborough line but wants to go home! Please RT to help find his best friend, he'll be given a room for the night at Ipswich Station for now!
Little Nev’s first time at a polling station! Definitely preferring a side profile for this momentous occasion! Happy #DogsAtPollingStatioms #Elections2024

Don't believe anyone saying 1M are waiting for scans because @SCoRMembers are striking today in England. We're striking because 1M are waiting for scans & govt have no plan & won't have a serious conversation with @SCoRMembers about a solution #RespectRadiography

Matthew Giles, a radiographer at @TorbaySDevonNHS explains why he's joining thousands of others in this 24-hr walk out:
"We have a massive recruitment and retention crisis that isn’t being recognised by the government."

Radiographers from @SCoRMembers are on strike today outside @TorbaySDevonNHS calling on delegates at #CPC2023 and @SteveBarclay to listen to their concerns

Our members are struggling. Our patients are deteriorating on waiting lists. We all deserve better and the government is not listening.

This makes very shocking reading
Why has the profession allowed this abhorrent behaviour to go on for so long?
There has to be zero tolerance from employing Trusts to high level organisations.

Can striking #radiographers see through Sunak? @guardian cartoonist Lorna Miller thinks so! It's time for the government to realise the value of #radiography and re-open the pay talks to agree a fair deal for the profession #respectradiography #SoRnews theguardian.com/commentisfre…

Often get asked about my definition of human factors.
For me, the clue is in the title - we are all fallible & make mistakes regularly
So HF is about recognising the things that raise our risk of error & finding ways to reduce it:
Indivduals, teams, organisations & systems
