Word of the day is 'blutterbunged' (19th century dialect): dumbfounded, confounded, and open-mouthed in amazement. (Not to be confused with 'dumfungled': utterly exhausted.)

Larry knows. Larry always knows.

My vibe is feeling overwhelmed but also like I’m not doing enough.

The only way I can think to describe this last stage before thesis submission is if you were in the last mile of a marathon & an official stopped you and said 'I know you're tired, but we just need to add on a few more miles & you need to do those in weighted shoes' 🫠 #phdchat

The “joy to have in class, has difficulty turning in assignments” to “why are all these ADHD memes so relatable?” pipeline.

Word of the day is ‘quafftide’(16th century): a one-word announcement that it’s time for a drink.

I’m very pleased to have closed out 2022 with the publication of my second #phd paper in BMC Series exploring person-centredness at mealtimes in long-term residential care from the perspective of residents in Switzerland, the UK and the Netherlands rdcu.be/c3gSQ

What a wild ride the last 4 years have been. 3 rapid ethnographies in 3 countries with 1 global pandemic thrown in for good measure. It hasn’t quite sunk in yet, but on Monday I passed my defense and can officially close this chapter as Dr. Davies 🎉 @NursingUnibas CAPHRI

Very (pleasantly) surprised to see my PhD review paper as 'Editor's Choice' of this month's Gerontologist alongside other interesting papers looking at 'Key Transitions'. @fzuniga300 @msimoninfo Sandra Staudacher TRANS-SENIOR @NursingUnibas Maastricht University academic.oup.com/gerontologist/…

At this point Venn diagram of people who say “there was a 19 year old in that sub, it’s so tragically sad” and people who say “those migrants don’t look like children to me, we should have gunboats patrolling the channel,” is a damn near perfect circle. myblackface.wordpress.com/2023/06/23/bil…

Do you have a relative who lives in a #carehome? We're looking for people to join an advisory group for our study looking at how the Mental Capacity Act is put into practice in care homes. English & Welsh speakers very welcome! For more info, please email [email protected]

My PhD was embedded in this wider TRANS-SENIOR project. I looked specifically at how we can improve transitions into care, exploring person-centredness & quality of life after a permanent move into care. Thanks to Farah Islam Lotan kraun & Lindsay Groenvynck for representing the TS team!

Watch until the end - it's powerfully accurate and so important.
