"Until we fix the printers, mend the mortar, and confront the politics, no plan will hold together—no matter how expert the writing” A truly stand out piece from @drmattmorgan.bsky.social on the 10yr plan that cuts through all the fluff. Exactly the kind of take we need. www.bmj.com/content/bmj/...

In 1913, Dr. Charles Huff brought medicine to Wyoming’s frontier. He built Jackson’s first hospital, library & even wrote replies to Santa letters. A doctor, mayor & pioneer—his legacy lives on. 📍More: authory.com/drmattmorgan... #RuralHealth #LegacyInMedicine #Cynefin

"I want to stay fiercely neutral. And this is not a cop-out." @drmattmorgan.bsky.social explains why he has kept quiet about whether we should allow assisted dying www.bmj.com/content/389/...

I'm listening back to my fav bits of @drmattmorgan.bsky.social #book #Critical whilst on brisk walk e.g.🫀Heart chap: has numerous well explained aspects ➡️ #springboard to enthuse a #Paramedic & other cinical students to learn for understanding: #Anatomy & #Physiology #Pathophysiology #Pharmacology

Five years ago I wrote a letter that was only meant to be read by my close family and friends. Days later, it had been read by millions. Those five years have gone in a flash, yet will remain forever.

A message from me about our brand new, first episode ever @accpchest.bsky.social Humanities podcast ❤️‍🩹

Words have power. Let’s harness them. @HumanimalTrust studenttimes.org/news/humanim...

On Valentine’s Day I want to fix a heart. ❤️ Why not have CPR as a 15 min online mandatory training module for all UK businesses? ❤️ Let’s learn how to save a life instead of the printer paper jam etiquette policy. That’s why I included it in the back of my book A SECOND ACT.

I'll be chatting about archaeology and history as I try out the new Civ 7 game. Join me for a livestream in about an hour! youtube.com/live/ih1hg1B...

I haven’t been fully engaged here for a while but my review of the brilliant A Second Act by @drmattmorgan.bsky.social out from @simonschusteruk.bsky.social might explain why! lindasbookbag.com/2025/01/27/a...

This book is an inspiring read: a meditation on what people who are sick enough to die, & who then survive, learn from that experience. These are stories about people you'll feel you know, & their wisdom is uplifting. Happy #PubDay, @drmattmorgan.bsky.social bit.ly/A2ndAct
