Yesterday, our new team of stroke registrars & SpRs @UHW_Waterford ran a FAST call @WICOPSIM. Great to to work through the process together & ensure we all share understanding regarding the decision to thrombolyse / refer for thrombectomy @HSE_NSO @SouthEastCH @BIASPstroke

Sad to say the time has come to hand over the keys. It's been an absolute privilege to be part of the evolution of #WICOPSIM. It's a fantastic place to work with even more amazing people behind it. Roll on October! @CookeJohnP @UHW_Waterford @SouthEastCH
Today @WICOPSIM said farewell (for now) to the OG @embucks24. Such a massive contribution in just two years to our department & @RCPI_Trainees @SouthEastCH @UHW_Waterford @HSE_NSO Best of luck in your next steps but don't forget we need you for the "live sim" @irishgerontsoc 🙈

The results are in! Many happy recipients of awards. Most important though was the opportunity to reflect on the successes & challenges endured during our first academic year. Great to get most of the gang together for a photo! @SouthEastCH @UHW_Waterford @HSE_NSO @RCPI_Trainees
Exciting lunchtime ahead @WICOPSIM. At the end of our first full academic year @embucks24 has, perhaps undemocratically, decided on 16 Oscars for people who have contributed to sims during the year. It's a lovely way to wrap up the year. @HSE_NSO @SouthEastCH @UHW_Waterford

This week, Continuing Medical Education for General Practitioners (supported by @HSELive National Doctors Training & Planning Unit) saw 59 members of @ICGPnews visit Waterford Integrated Care for Older People Centre & Gerontological Simulation Laboratory in Waterford.
Delighted to have the opportunity to host the @ICGPnews CME evening in #WICOPSIM with some excellent sessions focusing on capacity, managing delirium in the home, TIA and frailty @UHW_Waterford @HSE_NSO @SouthEastCH

Today we teamed up with physio to work through a challenging case of OH in an older adult. Well done to all involved 👏#interdisciplinarysim #WICOPSIM #gerontologicalsim

#WICOPSIMs Prof George Pope pictured participating in @BIASPstroke acute multidisciplinary stroke simulation course last week! Looking forward to advancing the skills and techniques in our simulation scenarios here at WICOPSIM! @CookeJohnP @UCCMedEd @UHW_Waterford
Today as part of @strive4scratch Masters project we explored the feasibility of using virtual wards as part of the Nursing Home Liaison Service via sim. Some interesting results to follow! The Insitu @smotslive gear helped us stream from multiple locations- thanks @HospitalMallow

A brilliant start to the simulation skills series for medical SHO’s in UHW, todays sessions focused on ultrasound guided thoracocentesis with two excellent SpRs leading the sessions-Donal O’Malley and @CaraMGill, thanks @DrDaraByrne and @GalwayICAPSS for the technical support! – at Waterford, Ireland
We switched from postgrad to undergrad interdisciplinary gerontological sim today- 2nd year nursing and final year medical students worked effectively together to treat a PD patient with delirium. Great work 👏Thanks again to @HospitalMallow for lending us @smotslive equipment!
A challenging interdisciplinary #WICOPSIM session today focusing on the perioperative medication management in an older patient admitted with a hip fracture. Many thanks to the orthogeris team with help from our UHW pharmacy colleagues @UHW_Waterford @SouthEastCH
