Great start to #HISCON25 with Dame Judith Hackitt on systems thinking in complex organisations. From Grenfell to the NHS, she urged a shift from box-ticking to culture change, resilience, and collaboration. A powerful call for proactive safety and accountability.

@hisinfection.bsky.social As usual Mike Weinbren talks so much sense. We need to learn from our construction errors.

An overview of #OneTogether resources by @XuerebD including the new #SSIsurveilance tool and the updated pathway poster. #OneTogether2025

Wow! Exciting new study presented by @melissa_rochon #OneTogether2025. Need system wide change to create better digital wound monitoring that meets patient expectation and make meaningful reduction in SSI

Great to be at the #OneTogether2025 expert conference. Packed room as Bill Kilvington opens the event. Looking forward to introducing our new surveillance resource and showcase work we are doing @UHSussex

I can’t believe #Trumps plans for #TrumptonOnSea in Gaza. He is surely a madman!

🫀This review identified 123 preoperative predictors of SSI risk following cardiac surgery, 56 of which have not been previously included in the development of cardiac #SSI prediction models www.journalofhospitalinfection.com/article/S019...

If Kier Starmer is serious about reducing waiting lists to 18 weeks (which would be brilliant), he CANNOT ignore social care. If we can’t discharge patients in a timely manner than we can’t take more through the door. #Simples

"We cannot continue to participate in the social network feed of a man who proclaims the death of the media and therefore of journalists... X is a platform that no longer serves the public interest at all, but the special ideological and financial interests of its owner and his political allies"

E coli are red S aureus are blue Hans Christian Gram Stained them for you

We wish we could eradicate ‘just a’ from NHS vocabulary. Every single person plays their part, and it couldn’t happen without everyone.

How do we know what to prepare for? Marion Koopmans #FISHIS24 Pandemic planning needs early recognition and action.

What an amazing achievement the siren study is. www.gov.uk/guidance/sir... exemplifies how the nhs is uniquely able to deliver infection research that needs big numbers and data connectivity. Dr Jas Islam #FISHIS “we’re lucky in the UK, we have the NHS”. @smhopkins.bsky.social

Jasmin Islam #FISHIS24 talks about important lessons from pandemic planning. Favourite point is collaboration!

#FISHIS24 Bridging the research gap. Nigel Saunders from Genpax. Use Nike principles - Just do it! Amazing research career! 3 golden rules: So what? Solve the solvable. Do you care? If yes do it.

“if you always do what you always did, you will always get what you always got” with visionary thinker Mike Simmons #FISHIS24

Ready for our session on Bridging the research Gap #FISHIS24

Dan Pan asks how effective are or protective behaviours in reducing staff acquisition of covid? #FISHIS24 Fascinating! Mist isolating factors associated with deterioration in mental health. Those who took up recommendations less likely to be vaccine hesitant.

#FISHIS24 great session with some real world IPC.

Great to see Alistair Yeoh presenting work from UHSussex demonstrating how we are using whole genome sequencing in conjunction with @Genpax @james-r-price.bsky.social #FISHIS24

Great talk from Edward Hepworth. CNS at Clatterbridge recognising risks from plumbing tools in CPE transmission.

It was a privilege to chair this brainchild of @james-r-price.bsky.social alongside side @emrsa15.bsky.social @patcs66.bsky.social @eimeartb.bsky.social and our industry presenters.

Really enjoyed channelling my inner @deborahmeaden.bsky.social for our #FISHIS24 Dragons Den. Thanks to fellow dragons @emrsa15.bsky.social @eimeartb.bsky.social @rajlaz.bsky.social.

Anti vaccine is pro polio, pro diphtheria, pro pertussis, pro measles and pro any other debilitating and deadly vaccine preventable disease .Got it??

Really enjoyed sharing our IPC learning today especially during Antimicrobial Awareness Week.

What a fantastic turn out for the IPC to protect the #planet as well as people 🌍 Participants contributed to developing a toolkit to improve the quality and #environmental #sustainability of #IPC practice. #FISHIS24

Fantastic showcase of the IPC research taking place @BSMS and @UHSussex. Great work team! #FISHIS24

Brilliant talk from Margaret Vos from Erasmus in Netherlands #FISHIS24. Fascinating insights into vagaries of hospital design. Lots of conflicting areas that complicate things further.

Moi Lin Ling from Singapore giving the Lowbury Lecture #FISHIS24 stressing the big differences between an Influencer and a change agent. Invest in building relationships and learn to use the data that you have #IPSky

Lisa Ridgeway introduces this year’s Lowbury Lecture from Prof Moi Lin Ling #FISConf24 The IPC professional as a change agent.

Looking forward contributing to #FIS/HIS24 in Liverpool led by @james-r-price.bsky.social fisconference.org
