This platform is becoming a cesspit therefore I making a conscious decision to move away from X/Twitter and giving Bluesky a go - if you are looking at it then would appreciate linking up: bsky.app/profile/bazkirby.bs…

But this “Do Not Touch” label was on everything - in a room full of ergonomists, perhaps that’s knowing your audience…

Fair play - if there isn’t enough time in the school day, no matter what age, then there is too much work. We insist on work during work hours, we should push for the same for pupils!

If @LouisReesZammit has been released by Chiefs as reported then I’m so sorry for him - but does that mean the @RamsNFL pick him up - that would be awesome if so ;-)

The Patient Safety Commissioner has launched a public consultation on a draft of "seven principles of better patient safety" They seem very sensible and it's hard to disagree with any of them. The Clinical Human Factors Group have responded to the consultation supporting the principles while stressing the importance of human factors science and systems thinking to ensure they don't just remain as principles but become part of the way work is done and the way care is delivered. The consultation survey is at patientsafetycommissioner.or… Whether you are a patient, service user, healthcare worker, care deliverer, campaigner or interested for any reason - have your say too.
