When we can, we sim, and this enhances confidence in our practical skills when all around us feels chaotic. Crucial part of our daily routine at @EMRSscotland @ScotTraumaNwk @Scotambservice

They do an amazing job, as do the new family navigators. They can make that critical difference with the adolescents presenting to our department. We need more of these guys
"I was surprised about the complexity & scale of what the Youth Navigators could do. Practical things, but had a huge impact in the young parsons life & their general wellbeing. They make a huge difference to the patient cantered care that our families receive" @MAVscotland

Something that comes up @resuscitology regularly is paediatric airway management, particularly in major trauma - so here's a short thread 🧵 with the way I think about it. This is for you particularly if you *aren’t* a paediatric anaesthetist…!

The remarkable efforts of AFC in advancing player welfare have been impressive. As we near the end of the second day, it's evident that this course has been an outstanding success. Thank you for hosting the FIFA Medical team!
