An important reminder of why we got into medicine to begin with. Thoughts from my favourite Irish guy.
Reflections from my last clinical shift:
The ED is always busy. Sometimes that leads us to focus more on disposition.
Our goal should always be good assessment and management.
This sometimes get lost in the need to keep patients moving through the department.

One that was tough to read but people are indeed kind and the waiting was most difficult.. what's hard is that you'll live your life wondering if it'll ever come back. What's harder is when the patient is your daughter. #Love

“The situation in (insert name of public hospital here) is at critical point.... ”. Capacity and resources is an issue in almost every public hospital. Thanks @acemonline and @JudkinsSimon for giving these issues the media exposure they deserve.
Taking DKA management a little further. Early basal insulin helps streamline discontinuation of Insulin infusion. Premature cessation of Insulin infusion can lead to rebound hyperglycaemia and acidosis recurrence. Timing is everything! #FOAMed

If I had to pick 5 most beneficial medicines for prehospital care?
- Aspirin (NNT=4 in ACS)
- Adrenaline (NNT <2 in anaphylaxis)
- Salbutamol (Asthma kills)
- Fentanyl (pain relief is a human right)
- Glucose (reversing hypoglycaemia is life saving)
