A privilege to have a captive audience of #GPs #PAs & catching up with a ex trainee #Anu ➡️GP

It’s been a weird challenging week….
the good moments in all things #geris were a good reminder why I love the job
A🧵on my journey through geris (not all of it) & the💙 for it
🙏🏽 to those who sustain that💙
You all get a mention😊
One for you @shutchs 😂
Asked a pt if I could help with anything after the usual review on the round;
He said ‘ a double whisky would be ideal’
he’s been in 2/12
‘do as the man wants’
JD looked at me
‘How do we prescribe it’😂
Idk I don’t 🥃 it!

interesting chat as always & to have space🤗
Time to visit @MidlandMetUH

/4 All matter not just because I’m a true #geriatricsmed geek but all made some difference to those in those moments
Anyone of us should make some time to look out for that patient, that relative & those around who look after them all
