Slide reads: Can you help us improve healthcare for older people living with HIV? As people living with HIV (PLWH) get older, they face different challenges and healthcare needs. We are researchers from the University of Bristol exploring what the healthcare needs of PLWH over 50 healthcare are and how healthcare services can better support them. We are looking for healthcare professionals from HIV clinics and general practice to talk about health and care for PLWH as they get older and what they need from healthcare services. We are looking for healthcare professionals who practice in Bristol, Sheffield or Brighton who can take part in online focus group discussions. This research is funded by the Royal College of General Practitioners Scientific Foundation Board and is being conducted by researchers from the Centre for Academic Primary Care, University of Bristol.
Are you a healthcare professional working in HIV clinic/general practice in Bristol, Brighton or Sheffield?
Can you attend an online focus group (Feb/March) to discuss how to improve healthcare for older people living with #HIV?

The REACH-GP logo uses connected horizontal pathways to represent continuous, coordinated care across the lifecourse, bringing together people living with HIV (red lines), general practice/HIV clinic (blue lines to represent NHS), and research (intersecting lines and purple hues) to support healthy ageing.
REACH-GP - Research Exploring Ageing and Care of people living with HIV in General Practice - is now live!
We want to explore how general practice can respond to the healthcare needs of older people living with HIV.

Hey folx. A colleague asked what textbooks people use these days for human physiology and reproductive health. My student days were literally from the last century 😅but I remember learning so much from this book as an SHO, I even read it on the tube to work! What's yours?
