Iโ€™m honoured to have been awarded the Gibson Chair Professorship by the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh. Iโ€™m also deeply grateful to those who have shaped and supported this journey โ€” and Iโ€™m excited about the opportunity this next phase brings to continue building emergency care capability.

Look familiar? Hope so! We don't just simulate a resus room.
We become one.

There is a reason pre-hospital immersive simulation is easier than resus room simulation...Had not factored the bay turnaround times when we don't have our fabulous @cuh.nhs.uk cleaning teams! #whatdidwelearn #BehindTheScenes #ResusProPrep #simulation www.resuspro.com

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them. #RememberanceDay

BBC One - Life Savers, Episode 1, The Trauma Unit is pushed to its limits A 999 call comes in and the Addenbrooke's team prepare for the emergency arrival.

Proud of the latest #surgeons series. It doesn't seem 10 years since Lifesavers. I'm even more proud of what we have achieved @CUH MTC despite all the challenges ... but we need to respect and support our nursing staff! #FairPayforNursing #OurNHS ๐Ÿ’™

Thread by @drokane on Thread Reader App @drokane: The NHS acute emergency care is failing spectacularly and unless you are within the 4 walls of the ED you will not know this unless it is you who needs our care. If you or those...

My pinned tweet says โ€œWeโ€™ve got thisโ€. We do. But Iโ€™m very afraid that we wonโ€™t be able to do this for much longer.
