One of the issues I often raise is the incentive to fail at educating enough MH nurses (or similar) to then bring in your saving response that you wanted all along. #CynicalByExperience Osborne did this with student bursaries. #HSJTMHSummit
Back at #HSJTMHSummit we’ve broken into table discussions. I’ve joined the one in ‘leveraging technology to improve CAMHS services’. Any thoughts from the Twitter’sphere?
Not had chance to read it yet so don’t know if relevant to this question, but here’s @MarkOneinFour who said something yesterday:
Now I’ve joined ‘How can digital services help deliver the #NHSLongTermPlan’. Thoughts to share on this? #HSJTMHSummit
We’ve heard some info about @XenZone_UK and Kooth; “...the UK’s leading mental health and wellbeing platform. Over half of all 11-18 year olds have access to Kooth.” xenzone.com#HSJTMHSummit
A couple of points from me: There was a comment about how NHS should learn from delivery companies ‘you can find out where your package is in world but we can’t find out where a patient is’... #HSJTMHSummit
I highlighted how a delivery driver delivered to me yesterday. He had 172 deliveries. Assume on zero hours contract & no facility to go for a pee. We shouldn’t be holding that model up as an exemplar. Not seen yet but 👀 🎥 @KenLoachSixteentheguardian.com/film/2019/may/…#HSJTMHSummit
Comments about how we should encourage people to use VR systems and other stuff for their care. I asked the Q of senior bods/chief execs: Instead of coming to Leeds for this event for 2 days, would they do it from home via VR? Answer seemed to be no. #HSJTMHSummit
The afternoon sessions are starting at #HSJTMHSummit. I've joined in with 'Enhancing care quality: Embedding QI within the heart of daily operations'
Next up at #HSJTMHSummit ‘Supporting students: Collaborating with schools, colleges and universities to widen access to CYPMHS and deliver personalised support’. And an unusual rear hall seat as I re-charge devices! 💥 🔌
Hearing a case study about a child failed. Hate to hear the use of exclusion booths. A point made: ‘the teachers would never behave/punish in the same way towards a child with a physical disability’ #HSJTMHSummit
@Rebeccasmt With a week of lots of travelling, starting to flag, but keeping going! Next session I've picked 'Reviewing Sections 135 & 136: Aligning the NHS with Police forces to deliver appropriate care in appropriate settings. #HSJTMHSummit
Looking forward to todays 'Making a difference in Wales' conference, organised by @MHAWSNAG, at @RCNWales. There will be tweets and the hashtag to follow is ➡️#MHNWales19
The calm before the storm. At least it’s dry in here. We’ve got definite Yorkshire drizzle this morning in Harrogate @Unite_CPHVA#CPHVA19
The doors aren’t open yet but we’re busy getting ready for #CPHVA19 delegates. Lots of opportunities to catch up with old friends and new over the next two days @Unite_CPHVA@saffie@UniteinHealth
Last year, with help of @denis_campbell@ObserverUK, I shared #HVreEndangered. This was an attempt to answer Q, as accurately as possible, how many health visitors there were in England. You can read more abt 2018 attempt/results⬇️. In late Feb 2019 I started #HVreEndangeredv2 1/
I contacted each local authority in England and asked them 5 questions ⬇️. I also gave a note of clarity about what I was asking for ⬇️. As the replies came in, I added them to a spreadsheet. In the run up to #CPHVA19, I wanted to share the results #HVreEndangeredv2 2/
I'm going to do my best to share the results on Twitter over the next few days, going through local authorities in alphabetical order. I'll be referencing the source for what I say, and am more than happy to be corrected for any errors/inaccuracies! #HVreEndangeredv2 3/
This mornings #MentalHealthCrisisSummit is chaired by @SoniaAdesara. She promises this won’t be a talking shop but will come up with campaign aims that we can all sign up to.
.@IanBFAWU, president of @bfawu1 talks about the workers his union represents, some of the most insecure in the UK. Highlights the work they’ve done in supporting fast food workers. #MentalHealthCrisisSummit
