I’m inviting #GPs to take part in a short service evaluation on #tinnitus & #hyperacusis management in #PrimaryCare

Your experience can help shape better care for people living with these conditions.

Inspired by @pulmcrit.bsky.social’s recent post on PCN allergies! Thought I’d repost a skeetorial on PCN allergies to add to the great discussion. Link below:

I continue to be shocked by how PCN allergies are misunderstood

This is from UpToDate on neutropenic fever

It's wrong

With PCN allergy, you can absolutely use cefepime, piptazo, or meropenem

The R-chain structure that determines allergy is different

How GPs are counted influences trend analysis. While fully qualified GPs and #GPRegistrars show an 18% increase in #GPworkforce 2015–2024, counting fully qualified FTE GPs per capita is a 5% reduction

Praha totálně rozkopaná. Všude. Každoroční poprázdninové šílenství dosáhlo letos nových dimenzí. Obchvat nikde, na vytížených místech zrušené pruhy kvůli cyklostezkám. Provoz hustý, že by se dal krájet, GPSky nestíhají, Uber bloudí, všichni bloudí, cesta tam a zpátky dlouhá jak pracovní doba. Hřib👎

YAY!

After so many failed attempts, my #NIHR grant proposal examining care gaps of older people living with #HIV using primary care electronic health records has reached the second stage!

I got 6 weeks to work on it and submit before my annual leave!😅

Does anyone have any experience of recruiting a community psychiatric nurse that is practice or PCN based? Could it be an ARRS role?

We are finding more and more people with mental health problems slipping through the silos of statutory MH services.
