Gillian Rennie

Tonight’s night shift is sponsored by The Association of Anaesthetists @assocanaes.bsky.social wearing all the branding tonight and I’m feeling snuggly warm! Loving the fleece. 🤗🏥👩‍⚕️

Looking good Gillian!

We gave out scrub caps at Resident Doctors Conference last week. If you'd like to get your hands on one, visit our stand at Annual Congress 2025.

And very well deserved they are too! 🥳

Dr Watson in front of her title slide, "Diveristy in healthcare, now is the time for action".

Always brilliant to see @sethina.bsky.social.

Diverse teams provide better outcomes to diverse patient populations.

The barriers to career progression for doctors from ethnic minority groups are fundamentally patient safety issues.

Thanks Rob, that’s mighty praise coming from you! 🫣

Are you at WSM tomorrow? We could do it together then? 🤣

I’ve kept mine for the same reasons but I have been debating just deleting it too recently!

A post from X by the RCOA, stating: SAS doctors are a vital part of the anaesthetic workforce. Our State of the Nation report calls for: - the appointment of SAS advocates - support for SAS professional development - more equitable treatment in working hours.

Copied from the @rcoanews.bsky.social account on the dark place. They aren't posting here regularly yet.

Yeah! I’m clearly more in a ‘busy changing hospital pre night shift’ state a day ahead of myself than I realised!! 🫣🤦‍♀️ Thank you for pointing that out. (Feeling a little silly now)

Saw this 14 hours too late! 🤦‍♀️

Hi folks, can I drive a few more followers to the @sascollective.com account?

That account deserves your follow more than this one.

My interest in #RegionalAnaesthesia #RegionalAnesthesia really began with upper limb blocks.

In this 30 min video, I give an overview of blocks for the upperlimb and combine anatomy apps with Virtual Probe movements.

Tomorrow I’m taking my niece to a physics thing for year 12 pupils at Cambridge. 👩‍🔬📚✏️
I can’t decide if I’m old as I have a niece that’s about to apply to uni or if I’m a child as I’m overly excited to be going to look round Cambridge because it’s famous and stuff! 😂🤩😝

Who here likes books?

Most excellent work Sethina. These have been brilliant. 🤩
