My favourite thing to do as a doctor is conspire with the nurse in charge to have a patient’s dog come and visit them on the ward and today I got to do that once more ☺️☺️☺️

@valhumphreys51 Use mine on every single patient so yeah. Where else would I keep it? Scrub pockets don’t even hold a pen reliably.

@sophielmg Unreal. Was it at least a good one??

@GingaGill @Lets_getcycling Awesome! 💪 Flexibility is often overlooked but it’s such an important factor in independence and longevity too, isn’t it. I hope I am as strong and flexible as the older lady I used to share a mat with at my old gym when I am her age.

The long-theorised maxi Babybel!!!

@Azeem_Majeed @mancunianmedic Americans seem to go on about it. I think they like to write their blood type on forms and driving licences. So perhaps from media. Dunno why people would want to know theirs unless to give blood though, at which point they tell you!

@SnotSurgeon How utterly bizarre.

@DrNeenaJha Absolutely. I’d be much happier carrying two bleeps if I got the locum pay on top for it! Think of it as danger money for your registration number…

@AshleyGWinter Yes because otherwise half the audience will be too focused on the misspelling to take in what you’re saying.

@WiseOwl1730570 That’s a very good line.

@PrinceK0K0 Declaring the emergency is an important human factors issue. Often comes up in learning from serious incident reports. Minutes make the difference in obstetrics and neonates. You need to move fast.

@shankysanghi @greatmamatheo @RMCunliffe You’d be evicted if you tried to raise a child in most house shares. No kids no pets.

@thesarahkelly It means he doesn’t want to put in any effort and is hoping to sleep with other people on the side. He means you should be monogamous to him.

@juliaisobela Paeds is the best! Enjoy your placement, see as many kids as you can

RT @susie_dent: Word of the day is ‘recrudescence’ (17th century): the return of something terrible after a time of reprieve.

Worked 40 hours in the past three days (fairly standard but was especially busy). Off today, brain so tired all I can do is stare into space. Back tomorrow for four more. Very glad I am part time and this is a rarity - avg is 42.75 hours a week, not 88, but still!!
