When discussing serious health issues with patients, it’s crucial to ask permission each time a new sensitive topic is broached… people may have specific needs, timing, or preferences they’d like to voice before you “go there.”

Know someone who is grieving? It’s important to be there for them in the early days but also in the weeks and months ahead. There is no time limit to grief. It takes the time it takes. 💛 Learn about #NGAW2025 and the grief supports available: hospicefoundation.ie/our-supports... #BeGriefAware

My new editorial with Catherine Evans and @proflizsampson.bsky.social calls out the misuse of 'person-centred care' in policy and outcome measurement as vague and oversimplified, especially for those with dementia.

Most old people do NOT develop dementia, most older people have full, happy lives, most people know that age is much more than a number, it's an attitude. And 99 year old Dyke van Dyke is life's joy personified because of his attitude towards it💗 www.youtube.com/watch?v=o4Ol...

Excellent insights to guide honest, realistic and compassionate conversations with patients about #palliative care. Particularly interesting and very relevant for #dementia is that LPA holders often haven't had crucial conversations in advance about the wishes of their loved ones. #medsky

Collaboration & co-creation aren't the same thing. If we want to do things differently in future, collaboration (working with others who might not share our goals) isn't enough. People need to be near the creation process (co-creation) to work in creative ways. lnkd.in/gA2sB4Z9. By Dennis Hambeukers
