This work with @katherinesleeman.bsky.social and @flissmurtagh.bsky.social shows how we can use routine data to understand causes and help find ways to address inequality in palliative and end of life care

First plenary at #PCC2025 - Sarah Mitchell speaking: many people miss out on pall care. Growing need for pall care - change constant, mission the same! Improving access and quality of pall care for people. Data dashboard, currency model. Ambitions partnership. SPC often too late; pushing for change

First plenary at #PCC2025 - Kirsty Boyd speaking: need for population- based care; multiple conditions (heart, vascular, and frailty) growing fast, cancer increasing - no longer ‘linear pathway’ - Scotland removing term ‘end of life care’ - identify how pallcare can help. Future care planning key.

First plenary at #PCC2025 with Feargal Twomey speaking: increasing pallcare need, poor coordination, a lot of work to be done, recognition of system-wide pressures, can’t say ‘too busy’ - we must take responsibility to find a way through! Level 1, 2, 3 pallcare needs - needs assessment required!

First plenary at #PCC2025 with Idris Baker speaking: case of national government teams and policy makers listening to clinical expertise and research evidence. Importance of good data to underpin person centred and value based (can achieve both!)

Yesterday’s webinar lead by Dr Gross was fantastic! Digging deep into components of high quality communication. Have you considered how your emotional intelligence may play a role? We will soon share the recording in our www.epcin.uk Members’ area (join free)! Save the date for the next one👇

Our blog on findings from the OSCAR study is now online @ukkidney.org education.ukkidney.org/blog/oscar Full paper: bmcnephrol.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.... @peolcsw.bsky.social @capcbristol.bsky.social @flissmurtagh.bsky.social @wolfsonpallcare.bsky.social @cacenotes.bsky.social

I've been teaching yoga, breathwork and meditation to patients, caregivers & HCPs in palliative care settings for a long time. My #realist research @wolfsonpallcare.bsky.social unpicks the relational & soothing mechanisms activated by these approaches that lead to down-regulation of distress.

One of our very own! Congrats, Jordan! 👏🧑‍🎓
