@Redrow In the process of selling my property on a Redrow development. Only issue holding up my sale is obtaining the FME1 Management Pack from Redrow/ Redrow's solicitors Gatleys. My solicitor has been trying to obtain this for the last 2 months still struggling. Any ideas?

We already know that feeding tubes don't help patietns with advanced dementia. This study shows higher mortality and readmission rates in patients who had feeding tubes. jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…
Really interesting findings, I think this also highlight the importance of ReSPECT and having those reviews and conversations for patients under our care so patients values and wishes are captured.
1.8% of patients CFS 6-9 survived to discharge. resuscitationjournal.com/art…
In this study by @lucypgeridoc , those patients who do survive to discharge often have QoL not compatible with their values. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3151…

Fantastic to see the work from @mpftnhs palliative care services highlighting the importance of adapting audits to ensure the outcomes are the right outcome for the patient.
I am looking forward to the @ResusCouncilUK ReSPECT conference today @Cambridge_Uni . Will be nice to finally meet so many F2F and share the work we have been doing at @UHNM_NHS and within the wider ICS.

As Lord Darzi rightly concludes in his report, staff are the beating heart of the NHS, with a shared passion and determination for making the NHS better for patients - but he is also clear they are facing unprecedented challenges.
Wow, a huge congratulations to @betterageing . Your dedication to elderly care knows no bounds, and I'm proud to call you a colleague.

Environment is a key component in my dysphagia assessments and my recommendations will always have an environmental element to minimise risk and maximise intake and wellbeing 🍝🍜🍛 #slt #withsltyoucan @AhpDementia
Mealtime environments matter. Seating, lighting, background noise, cooking smells, food presentation & what’s happening around the meal all contribute to our experience. Let’s look around to maximise the experience. #WithSLTuCan
