I had a conversation today about the difference between "kindness" & "niceness" in leadership so I decided to post about it. The article & graphic explain why, as leaders, we should choose kindness over niceness. Kindness is about caring enough to push people toward greatness, even when it’s uncomfortable. It’s a harder path but better in the long run:

We’re developing standards for the care of older people living with frailty.
The consultation closes on 18 June 2024 and we welcome your feedback.
To find out more about frailty and its impact, listen to our podcast.
Podcast and feedback links are in the comments.
ALT Graphic includes Healthcare Improvement Scotland logo. The quote reads: 50% of people over 85 will live with frailty. But frailty is potentially reversible particularly in the early stages.

How it started:
Me & my twin bro Mo are forced to leave our parents behind in Lebanon due to the terrible situation over there & arrive in the UK at the age of 17. We both start working full-time in a supermarket stacking shelves. People laugh in our faces when we say it is our dream to become doctors.
How it’s going…
I’m Dr Ahmed Hankir, Consultant Psychiatrist in Canada and Honorary Visiting Professor at School of Medicine Cardiff University.
Dr @HankirMohammed has today been offered a job as Assistant Professor of Biochemistry in Trinity College Dublin, Ireland (please say a huge congratulations to Dr Mo!!)

We keep being told that "feedback is a gift". But who really welcomes unsolicited negative feedback? Brain research shows it often triggers a “fight or flight” response, flooding our brains with stress hormones & limiting our ability to absorb information. @dastillman says it's much more effective to use a "Rose, Thorn, Bud" approach to giving feedback:
1) Rose: something that’s positive, working well.
2) Thorn: gaps, clear negative issues.
3) Bud: areas of potential growth that are present but not fully realised.

“What matters to you?” is a simple question that can have a big impact on care. June 6 is International #WMTY Day. Let's remember to ask this question to know what matters to patients & provide the right care at the right time.

A morning in Dr Blane's surgery makes the arguments for increased investment in, and focus on, general practice and anticipatory care in the most marginalised and disadvantaged communities tough to ignore.
