SEND reforms to 'strip away' children's legal protections - BBC News. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Glad to share a short paper colleagues & I have published in Lancet Primary Care today discussing how a lack of visual fidelity in patient-generated images risks compromising care. www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

"The true measure of any society can be found in how it treats its most vulnerable members". The rhetoric about SEND pupils having their support plans "Reviewed" is a shady veil of lies for providing more and more opportunities for REMOVAL not review. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Great to have featured in today's Sunday Times magazine discussing my work & aspirations in digital clinical care alongside other Welsh Ambulance colleagues -from business as normal pressures, drones, volunteers, AI, remote observations & new response models. www.thetimes.com/uk/healthcar...

Last week I had the pleasure to run a 30 minute session with WASTs wider digital leadership team on "The power of publishing normal work & where it leads". Publishing shares evidence, creates a further sense of achievement, can be used in future bids, leads to future study (PhDs) & supports growth.

Really proud that Welsh Ambulance Services University NHS Trust Digital Front End team have been shortlisted for a HSJ Digital Award 2026 for our work on Agentic AI on the NHS 111 Wales Website. Brilliant work by the team and proud to have played a small part in this.

Dr Mike Brady from Welsh Ambulance Service & part of the research team said: “These insights are highly relevant today, as UK health services undergo large-scale clinical model transformations, winter preparation responses, & future pandemic preparedness exercises". shorturl.at/whnIF

The role of Remote Clinical Care in Health Promotion: a scoping review protocol - Preprint. Great to see early pieces coming out of my Professional Doctorate student Craig Browns work. www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1...

Really proud of the team who brought this to life and are working hard on phase 2 of WAST chat features work too. Well done. Happy to have played a small part. www.linkedin.com/posts/welsh-...

The special educational needs system is widely considered to be broken. Put simply, demand is outstripping supply, and too many children are being left without the support they need or having to go to school far away from home. www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

Three-quarters of parents let children miss school for ‘duvet day’. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

Here's Welsh Ambulance Director of Digital talking a little bit about the NHS 111 Wales Online chatbot & the work myself & others did to get it live. More to do, some improvements to make, but key to start offering more modes of access to trusted information. shorturl.at/xuuAO

Fantastic to have new specialist clinicians in my direct and wider team working alonside my remote care specialists; making a fantastic contribution to the expansion & development of remote clinical care. ambulance.nhs.wales/news/nhs/202...

BBC News - Two ambulance services in England will combine their senior leadership. South Central Ambulance Service (SCAS) and South East Coast Ambulance Service (Secamb) said they would adopt a shared leadership model. www.bbc.com/news/article...

BBC News - Outsourcing firm Capita fined £14m after millions had data stolen. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Companies have decided to pay people less who work remotely, even if they have more expertise and/or provide more value to a company than certain people who go into the office. Guess who needs remote jobs more? Marginalized groups! especially disabled people! What a coincidence! 🫠

Well done Shafaq Aftab. When a reviewer stole her work and published it under his own name, she fought for a YEAR to get the journal to retract the paper. Just wondering why it took Wiley a YEAR to do this. 🧪 #academicsky retractionwatch.com/2025/10/03/w...

The role of Remote Clinical Care in Health Promotion: a scoping review protocol - Preprint. Great to see early pieces coming out of my Professional Doctorate student Craig Browns work. www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1...

Got my performance review.

Leading with Humility: The Role of Modesty in Effective Leadership. consciousleadershippathways.com/humility-eff...

What is modest leadership? Why humility improves teams, leaders and patient care. www.fmlm.ac.uk/news/what-is...

New publication: While this research was undertaken a few years ago, its findings remain relevant. As health services respond to winter pressures & large-scale clinical model transformation, the lessons continue to offer valuable insights. emj.bmj.com/content/earl...

Great to showcase the work of Welsh Ambulance Service & Industry Partners today at the 999 Remote Patient Care Best Practice Day & Robotics AI summit - Discussing the implementation & validation of clinical systems & early learning from conversational AI for NHS 111 Wales Online.

With a robust background in clinical practice & telehealth, Dr. Brady delves into the profound impact of remote clinical care in today's health landscape. The conversation explores benefits, including increased accessibility & convenience for patients. open.spotify.com/episode/5wRQ...

This past week of leave has been a game-changer. Less dread, more disconnection. With my fantastic family and beautiful wife, I found a new sense of clarity. Now, I'm curiously and excitedly searching for new opportunities that will truly value my unique contributions.

BBC News - The head of research at South East Coast Ambulance Service (Secamb) has been honoured with a Lifetime Achievement Award by the College of Paramedics. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Aiming to spark debate through possibly controversial proposals, the authors suggest that academics should be limited to one publication, book or chapter every year, or even every two years, as a solution to the “publish or perish…mania”. www.researchprofessionalnews.com/rr-news-worl...

Appropriateness of NHS 111 Wales outcomes—using the Call Prioritisation Streaming System: a RAND/UCLA modified Delphi method. bmjopen.bmj.com/content/15/7...

The challenge of taking a weeks leave: A personal reflection. www.linkedin.com/pulse/challe...

Horribly tragic case which evidences how challenging designing remote clinical decision systems for call handlers can be, in assessing peadiatrics breathing rates, noises, causes. Improvements should include the people, the processes, as-well-as the technology used. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Great to see Tom Fallon featured here. Tom is WAST respiratory clinical lead for remote care and a key member of my team. His work is already showing the potential to embed respiratory and rehab thinking upstream in the 999 and 111 systems. www.csp.org.uk/frontline/31...

A BBC Verify investigation has revealed that the identities of British public sector workers (like 999 Emergency Medical Advisors) have been cloned using AI by a Russian-linked disinformation campaign. www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...

Welsh Ambulance Service demonstrates commitment to environmental management standard and has successfully retained its ISO 14001 accreditation for another year. aace.org.uk/news/welsh-a...

I really enjoyed being a panel member at this week's Welsh Ambulance research day with colleagues Aasha & Scott where we discussed & answered questions on emerging technologies, change management, implementation science, & of course the role of AI in healthcare.

The authors advocate for a renewed commitment to nurturing nurse scientists and collecting robust data to inform future planning, asserting that without such action, the academic and clinical contributions of nursing science may diminish significantly. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

MORE THAN JUST 'PICKY EATING' ARFID is characterised by a pattern of eating that avoids certain foods or food groups entirely and/or is restricted in quantity (eating small amounts). lnkd.in/eVjKhWij

It’s been over a decade now since I undertook this research into child protection & the role, knowledge & confidence levels of Paramedics. It would be fascinating to repeat the study on a larger scale and measure the differences ten years on. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Those who use AI to conduct legal research notwithstanding these risks have a professional duty therefore to check the accuracy of such research by reference to authoritative sources, before using it in the course of their professional work. www.bailii.org/ew/cases/EWH...

Great to contribute to another academic textbook & receive my copy today of Paramedic Research: Principles, Designs and Methods.

Publication delays are damaging our careers & reducing impact of much needed research findings. These delays must be reduced. www.nature.com/articles/d41...
