Here’s some things I love about #HospitalAtHome for people with frailty and acute illness: 1. Patients love it. 2. Patients love it. 3. Patients love it. For the right person with the right support, treatment at home works. It’s not right for everyone. But for many, it’s great.

This is what process driven algorithmic medicine does to older people. (This is an obs chart, PR = patient refused). It drives me nuts. How do we stop doing this?

Also, I did a massive book cull - duplicates, books that I’ve pretended to have read, books I’m never going to read… 8 bags to new homes and our shelves now look so happy (and honest) 🥳🥳❤️📖❤️📖❤️
