Myth: Sedatives (like benzos) are mostly helpful in calming delirium. Fact: Sedatives often worsen delirium. Non-drug approaches (reorientation, hydration, mobility) are first-line treatments.

Well I had Austria as forth but clearly I've no idea about any of the rest 🤷🏻 I feel I'm off my #eurovision game but then loads of others were too! Right, signing up for next year and a trip to Austria 🤞🏻 Night everyone!

Voting is all over the place 🤯 #eurovision

My scorecard (and yes I know Belgium didn't make the final. It's a protest vote) #eurovision 💖

Is Petra coming back? #madeinswitzerland #eurovision

Another #eurovision banger but not Loreen standard.- good effort tho and def chair dancing along at mo 🙌🏻🙌🏻 (it's after 10pm and I'm tired 🤣)

I liked the swiss staging on this one #eurovision

The BSL during Finland was sensational #Eurovision

I do like this song from Netherlands #Eurovision

There's a dance break.twist at the end of this operatic, ear drum piercing song #eurovision

Song 9 people - cheers Terry 🥂 #eurovision

Harmonies are amazing! Don't think we'll win but they're doing a fabulous job 🇬🇧 #eurovision

Thoughts on Celine rumors people? #eurovision

Yasss - impromptu singing and costume change #eurovision

I can't decide if I like this or not. I like the warbling bit, presumably representing the bird, rest bit meh. Excellent hair, props to the hairspray #eurovision 🇺🇦

Spain giving fabulous diva jlo vibes #eurovision 🇪🇸

Feeling a bit of a 90s indie throwback with this one #lithunia #eurovision

Just wondering if that sparkly staircase will be available to buy after the show? 😁 Song is a bit meh irrespective of politics but I do like the chandelier thing #eurovision

Ooo 20 votes - back in a mo while I cast my first 5... #eurovision

The staging for 🇱🇺 #luxemborg is great - song is a little forgettable tho 😬 Mind you the silver sparkle dress is fab 🤩 #eurovision

It's Eurovision week! ✨ Here's everything you need to know ahead of the Live Shows in Basel ✅ eurovision.tv/story/eurovi...

Clarity of vision, reliable data and finance/infrastructure incl workforce is needed for this shift to be fully realised. Accountability for the quality of services is a must Critically prioritise this area of health & social care and not as an after thought! www.kingsfund.org.uk/insight-and-...

This is devastating news for our doctors who've worked so hard! It's important for non medics to remember that these are still qualified, experienced doctors who have the support/supervision of other senior clinicians. This needs resolved asap! #mrcp #workforce www.rcp.ac.uk/news-and-med...

Chairing the Skye Recruitment Group meeting this morning and hearing all about how the @workonskye event went. I was originally meant to be there supporting so was fantastic to hear how well it went! Evaluation to come 🌟 #workforce #remoteandrural www.workonskye.com/post/work-on...

How cute are these? 😍 It may be Valentine's but tbh every day is a chance to tell the important people in your life how much you love them 💖 #ValentinesDay    #lovecats #love

Brilliant work underway @gerisoc.bsky.social workforce committee led by @sparklystar55.bsky.social #choosegeriatrics because if we get healthcare right for older people, we can get it right for everyone! New revamped @gerisoc.bsky.social website coming next week - look there for info & resources!

Chaired my first @gerisoc.bsky.social Workforce Committee meeting today. Fantastic to see everyone 😊 Priority - use every opportunity to advocate for a sustainable workforce to meet the needs of older people. Importantly meet that need where there are

Thanks to @rcgpscotland.bsky.social facilitating our in person Primary/Secondary Care interface session yesterday. Collaborating to build on existing work to make this the can do/get stuff done group 💪🏻 Thanks to everyone for making it such a good session 🌟 #interface #relationships

Older people make up the majority of those dying each year. @gerisoc.bsky.social concerned about the lack of representation from older people’s healthcare specialists and older people themselves on the witness list for the Assisted Dying Bill - have a look at our website for updates

Looking forward to this - timely given recent Scot Gov announcements. Huge piece of work for us in NHSH esp how we resource sustainable plans in our remote & rural areas. Incl investment to maximise the expertise of our GPs, community teams & Geriatricians buff.ly/42hqS5p

I'm back at work. Slowly & tentatively checking out what the 'real world' has been up to. My grief is like living in parallel worlds - observing the pace and harshness of one versus the soft brokeness of the other. Time will heal 💖

Today as the sun shone, my family came together to say our goodbyes to my Mum. A beautiful day filled with tears and laughter. Navigating this grief is the hardest thing I've ever had to do. Am so grateful for the kindness and compassion shown by so many💖

This is the @gerisoc.bsky.social Trustee Board. Show us unity! @adamgordon1978.bsky.social @jkdhesi.bsky.social @oldertrialsprof.bsky.social @richardbiram.bsky.social @lyndseydunn7.bsky.social @sparklystar55.bsky.social @debgompertz.bsky.social @lizlawn.bsky.social @estherclift.bsky.social

The challenge of #workforce planning for remote and rural highlighted here. It's not all about getting the staff but the infrastructure of roads, childcare etc www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
