Dear @StanCollymore @ProstateUK please stop this misleading advice. It’s grossly unfair to men. Listen to this for balance and information about the profound uncertainties bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0024v…

Inside Health - Olympian Sir Chris Hoy wants more tests for prostate cancer - should it happen? -...

Following a terminal cancer diagnosis, Chris wants more testing. We debate the evidence.

Yeah but rationally, @soniasodha doctors never get things wrong and are especially qualified to read minds, spot bad actors, and interpret evidence correctly. * *am also an atheist

Replying to @soniasodha
This perspective that doctors and judges will infallibly detect coercive control is just hopelessly naive. Let’s at least honestly acknowledge the issues if we’re going to legislate in this area.

Do the most vociferous proponents of assisted dying never pause to wonder why the majority of palliative care doctors - who do, after all, work with dying patients daily - are troubled by the prospect of legal change at the present time? Doesn’t professional experience count?

The Secretary of State *must* ensure that assisted suicide is available. He is no under such duty, as far as I know, to provide palliative care to everyone that needs it.

just as well UK health and social care is so well resourced and organised, with no concerns about medical power , evidence and whistleblowing, that surely nothing could go possibly wrong

Less than 3 weeks before it's due to be debated, Kim Leadbeater MP has finally published the text of her assisted suicide bill. It's 38 pages long, has 43 clauses and 6 schedules. MPs will have a maximum of five hours to debate it. bills.parliament.uk/bills/37…

The @NIHRresearch 2023/24 report highlights key contributions from @NIHRARCs 👏 nihr.ac.uk/news/nihr-publish… It spotlights two projects from @Peninsula_ARC and one from @ARC_West: 🌟nihr.ac.uk/news/review-revea… 🌟nihr.ac.uk/news/digital-trai… 🌟nihr.ac.uk/story/routes-well…
Improving the quality of life for care residents with dementia The NIHR supported the development of a training programme for care home staff to improve the quality of life for people with dementia. The iWHELD programme provided weekly online coaching sessions to care home staff delivering personalised care to encourage meaningful social interactions. It led to a drop in the use of sedative medications and residents showed reduced signs of agitation. The 16-week trial included staff in 149 residential homes in the UK caring for more than 700 people. The study was part-funded by the NIHR Maudsley Biomedical Research Centre and the NIHR Exeter Biomedical Research Centre, and supported by the NIHR Applied Research Collaboration South West Peninsula.

Routes to Wellness: a person-centred approach to research The NIHR-funded ‘Routes to Wellness’ project improves the mental health and wellbeing of refugees in the UK. Our people-centred investment in the Routes to Wellness project is a co-designed peer support model for improving the mental health and wellbeing of refugees. The NIHR Applied Research Collaboration South West Peninsula met with refugees and service providers to co-design the study. Their input helps identify and address key themes including the impact that being unable to work has on mental health. Early feedback has shown group members are already seeing benefits.

The distress experienced by people near death is not limited to pain caused by illness or disease. Our research sheds light on the economic and political reasons dying is much harder for some.

If we were truly a private business we would make more money for less stress: -Refuse to register highest need patients -Offer woo-woo ‘health checks’ for £££ - stop doing house calls (too much time) - give customers a glossy brochure of health test results to take to NHS GP
Margaret McCartney@mgtmccartney1 Nov 2024
it's a bit disingenious to say that most NHS contracted GPs are private practices; the contract is very restrictive; the private work is limited to stuff NHS doesn't fund(eg insurance reports), we don't have private patients, our hours/workload/ is heavily held to contract/..

It is hard to imagine any #ICJ case in which a respondent state has done more than #Israel to generate additional evidence against it while the case is pending. Serbia, maybe. But I think developments over the past 10 months surpass that.
Mike Becker@mabecker1728 Oct 2024
As the Knesset votes to ban #UNRWA, recall the #ICJ Order of 28 March 2024 that required Israel to ensure, in full co-operation with the UN, humanitarian aid and basic services. This is a vote in defiance of that obligation (which the judge appointed by Israel also supported).
