Arrrghh .... Why does it take so long for what front line staff have been saying for years, to filter through? There are many ways to save time and money to spend it where it really matters. Often just takes (1) listening (2) acting (3) willingness to innovate and invest to save.
It’s been great meeting and hearing from our @EMSAS_RCEM colleagues at #EMSAS2024 today. Gave an RCEM update. Joined by Catherine Feast our Director of Engagement and External Affairs who went over the @RCollEM membership value work. Thank you for welcoming us to the conference!
Great to talk about something other than crowding today at #EMSAS2024 (well I might have mentioned it). How we think about middle aged emergency clinicians is a key part of our sustainable working agenda. Affects us all one day. @RCollEM @EMSAS_RCEM
The final talk of Day 1 at #EMSAS2024 delivered by @RCEM_VP, Dr Ian Higginson (Higgi) from Derriford Hospital: “Valuing and retaining middle aged emergency physicians”
Sacking managers based on A&E data which is fiddled to make NHSE and govt look good risks leading to (1) more fiddling (2) focus on the wrong group of patients (3) more bullying and pressure on ED teams without fixing crowding. Need to get the fundamentals right @RCollEM
When you are on the way up to the @EMSAS_RCEM conference and you get a late night call to do an early morning @TimesRadio interview that is on camera … PS: shout out to the brilliant @RCollEM comms team who were also up early briefing us …

The Tobacco and Smoking Bill has the potential to significantly improve public health. From an EM perspective, our members see first-hand the detrimental effects of smoking and passive smoking has on patients and their families. RCEM supports the Academy of Medical Royal…
Here’s an idea. Emergency care data is fiddled: hospitals lump patients attending minor injuries units in with the sickest patients in major A&Es. “Site specific reporting” would stop this and allow the focus to be on the patients most at risk. Cost = zero. Deaths ⬇️ @RCollEM
Vaccinating your children protects them against lots of illnesses, some of which can be serious. Check their red book to see which vaccines they've had. Catch-up appointments can be arranged via your GP practice. More info: nhs.uk/childhoodvacci…

Today is #StateOfCare It's our annual assessment of health care and social care in England. The report looks at the trends, shares examples of good and outstanding care, and highlights where care needs to improve. orlo.uk/5zmpU
The data is clear, when patients are in corridors, patients somewhere are dying unnecessarily. @RCollEM and our members know overcrowding can’t be fixed overnight but it’s time to stop pretending we can provide proper safe or dignified care in corridors. channel4.com/news/there-wil…
RCEM would like to encourage everyone to check their eligibility for all vaccinations including Flu, Covid-19 and RSV, to help protect themselves and their loved ones from illness this winter ✅ More info can be found on the NHS website here 👇nhs.uk/live-well/seas…
