Medical School Lecturers: we just want to ensure you'll be a safe junior doctor Medical School Exams: what's 4th line malaria treatment in a patient with lung mets, CKD, 50 pack year, drinks a litre of vodka a night & is penicillin allergic. His bloods have been lost by the lab

Reviewed female-to-male transgender person with abdominal pain in clinic and realised: transition not covered in med school, I don't fully know how testosterone impacts organs + surgical membership exams include nothing on trans people So how can we provide good quality care? ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ

Others: Its Sunday morning.. Let me sleep. #SIMBA team made of med students and junior docs spread across 6 countries: Let's organise a meeting to debrief from our recent sessions & plan for future sessions. Students these days aren't as good as we were.. They are much better๐Ÿ™Œ

#TipsForNewDocs Traits I respect in a doctor: 1. Compassion. (No one cares how much you know, until they know how much you care.) 2. Humility. (Keeps asking the opinions of others.) 3. Integrity. (Does what they say they'll do.) 4. Diligence. (Keeps working the problem.) #MedEd

In the grand scheme of things, the โ€˜failuresโ€™ we beat ourselves up over will probably not matter/we wonโ€™t even remember them. Contextualising these things is so helpful

Denmark's players had to form a protective ring around their teammate. A distraught wife was broadcast to the world. TV broadcasters and cameramen are capable of blocking footage of pitch invaders, but not this? Sorry, that is not ok.

Thank you Punith! Well done to the team and thanks to BMJ Leader for publishing our article on how @SIMBAsimulation can teach medical students leadership and teamwork skills.๐Ÿพ

Our recently published paper on improving leadership and teamwork skills in medical students through @SIMBAsimulation Giving medical students more responsibility/independence in non-clinical environments (like in SIMBA) may help to teach these skills. bmjleader.bmj.com/content/early/โ€ฆ
