Oh Cathy- thoughts and prayers. 🤣
Our black bin is every three weeks now so it’s a catastrophe if you forget!

Yep I uncovered some grim things when I wrote the RCGP RPS repeat prescribing toolkit & more now we are seeing practices do the self assessment but doubt the answer is AI or non doc/ non pharmacists taking it over. I think the answer could be better tech to flag risk/over supply etc. complex stuff 🤔

“Relatively low risk medicines” - low risk until you give them to the wrong person, in the wrong strength or with the “ wrong” co morbidities. Crikey!

This was one of my highlights in the @auralapothecary.pharmsky.app almanac. It’s and incredible example of science over adversity and such a big deal for women’s health. Well done Denmark👏👏👏👏👏

#PharmSky UK pharmacists pls consider taking part in this survey on #AdvancedPractice

You'd be supporting my MPharm4 students and increasing understanding of an important topic.

Could opinion leaders like @pharmrj.pharmsky.app @hpillminster.pharmsky.app and @pharmacistdaz.uk help spread the word?

Salut 🇫🇷 😊

Just had a 🍷with a pal tonight and she said I had to watch this. 😬😃

Zero humility, zero insight, zero shame. Awful.

I’m really enjoying it. ☘️

Abortion is healthcare.

Abortion should be regulated like other health services so that women and girls can access safe, timely and respectful care.

Today is International #SafeAbortion Day.

Access to safe abortion protects the health of women and girls.

As with all other health services, women and girls should be able to access safe and respectful abortion care, when they need it, without fear of harm, punishment or recrimination.

Emma Vardy Hi there, This September, I’m walking 30 miles for Dementia UK – a cause close to my heart. Just £8 could pay for the telephone costs of two families calling its free Dementia Helpline, so any ...

Duties of a Doctor (General Medical Council) imply that giving out false or misleading information that could lead to harm might be grounds for removing a doctor from the Medical Register.

By heck that’s a long way. 👏👏👏

Ahh- I’m honoured 🥰

Drive your plow over the bones of the dead. Olga Tokarczuk - Me and my son ( eng lit at Manchester uni) have a wee book club together. This was his pick. Started off well but bit of a slog at the moment. 😀

Well I totally agree with Jacinder ( and all the fellas were worthy too) but we are 51% of the worlds population!! What kind of inspiration is this to young women looking at one of our highest educational institutions? Right rant over back to me book 😀

Oh it’s next on my list. 😀

So there were no women who have made lasting contributions to the world?? 🤔🙄

It’s starting to drive me nuts. They’re going to normalise voting for someone who will drag us into the gutter.
