A few weeks ago I noticed that one of the on-call doctors didn't seem quite himself.
We're not friends outside of work + I'm not his supervisor, but he works in an acute specialty so is regularly in the ED seeing patients + that day something just wasn't quite right.

I asked him if he was ok and he replied, "Yes, I'm fine", but I wasn't convinced.
Later on I spoke to him again - I said that I had noticed a change and was worried about him.
This time he told me everything... things he hadn't told his colleagues, his friends or his GP.

Reframing the question really changed the response I got and we then spoke about what had been happening, how he was feeling + how it was affecting him and his work.
Together we were able to make a plan to help him move forward.

Ok. It’s time to go into Joshua’s memory box and tell his story #thread 
Joshua was very much a rainbow baby 🌈 and we were so excited and over the moon when I finally made it into the second trimester. (Alex and I are both big rugby fans!)
I was working as a 1st year Registrar in A&E when I suddenly broke my waters at 24 weeks. I was transferred to Southampton @UHSFT who have a specialist level 3 Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. They were wonderful, and did everything they could to stop my labour over Father’s Day.
