Final interviews complete 🎉 It’s been a privilege to speak with staff and patients at @queenscourthospice.bsky.social about the potential of VR. Now it’s time to dive into the data and prepare for the implementation study! #VirtualReality #PalliativeCare

Great work @katieflanagan.bsky.social

Brilliant night in Bristol 👏👊💪 @idlesband.bsky.social

@qpr.co.uk made a young aspiring goalkeeper very happy with their online meet and greet with Paul Nardi today 💪⭐️ #urs #juniorhoopers

Welcome aboard, Libby 🎉💪

REALLY IMPORTANT SURVEY for all those in the UK researching dying and palliative care. The results will help shape research funding - so have your say, *especially* if you are have a social science or humanities background!

I've just joined Blue Sky - please say hello 👋so I can find like-minded people! Interests in palliative care and bereavement, improving quality and addressing inequities. bsky.app/profile/catr...

@thelancet.bsky.social Comment out today: www.thelancet.com/journals/lan... Social and structural determinants of dying well and the complex systems they exist in #palliativecare #socialdeterminantsofhealth

Another top night🤘

Thanks @lbc.co.uk for having me on to discuss AD. Both Keir Starmer & Wes Streeting know full well how grossly underfunded UK palliative care is - & they have the power to change that. But will they? Or will they turn their backs on dying people? www.lbc.co.uk/news/palliat...

If you are at @hospiceuk.bsky.social #HospiceUKConf, do see @joe-sawyer.bsky.social Dr Joe of @stelizabethhospice.bsky.social at poster 115 re: our public health approach to palliative care. We’re developing a protocol for Suffolk, funded by the National Lottery. @compassionatecomm.bsky.social

Very important work which showcases innovative inpatient and outpatient services at Marie Curie Hospice Liverpool. Further work is in development to understand experiences of patients accessing this vital service. #PalliativeCare #hpm #hapc

Translating research into practice with our hospice collaborators - #Poster174 shows how we improved getting medications right. Come and find out more lunchtime today! #HospiceUKConf #PalliativeCare #hpm #hapc with Sarah Yardley and @natashabradley.bsky.social @hospiceuk.bsky.social

Happy to contribute to discussions regarding the evidence on the accuracy of survival predictions www.ft.com/content/241a...

There is little evidence about the potential impacts of digital inequality in #DigitalLegacy Check out Poster 137 #HospiceukConf to find out how we hope to improve this. @[email protected] #PalliativeCare #hpm #hapc #digitalhealth @sarah-stan.bsky.social

What a fantastic opportunity to work within a great team. 👇👇

Brilliant paper on the feasibility of #vr in #hapc Delighted to be working with @amaranwosu.bsky.social and the team @mariecurieuk.bsky.social in Liverpool on more innovative research funded by @nihr.bsky.social

Is it possible to measure the outcomes of social support groups in palliative care? This paper suggests yes - by collecting data over time from 30 patients in four different hospices, we observed a difference in loneliness, depression, and perceived emotional support: www.mdpi.com/1660-4601/19...

About last night 🥳

Excellent work. Really important to advance #science in #PalliativeCare for applications of #VirtualReality and other #DigitalHealth modalities. A great researcher and a brilliant supervisory team. Well done. #MedSky #hapc #mHealth #eHealth

Well done @katieflanagan.bsky.social ! Read the protocol below! Our question: can virtual reality help people living with advanced cancer to manage pain? We will synthesise currently knowledge on this. #pallisky #medonc #vr #hapc #hpm

First time on bluesky. I am enjoying these hospice and palliative care starter packs! Thank you 🎉

That’s a wrap! 🎬 Yesterday the last paper from my PhD thesis got published. This paper is about how the hospice multidisciplinary team starts conversations about dying patients’ prognoses. You can read it here: journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

I am delighted to be featured in The Churchill Fellowship Changemaker stories. In 2023, I travelled to the #USA and the #Netherlands to research how #digitalhealth can be used to support #palliativecare. #MedSky #hapc #hpm www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTa1...
