Thought provoking #SCCM2023 Plenary session by @DGlaucomflecken & @LGlaucomflecken who shared their experience with #cancer #cardiacarrest administering #CPR at home. They remind us that the #family #surrogate sustains their own trauma & that #FirstResponders are everyday heroes

I performed over 1200 operation as a trainee surgeon. These are the lessons I learnt over 8 years. How to get the most out of theatre time as a trainee 🧵.

One of the phrases I hate most is, "It is what it is." We do not have to accept the status quo - we can always be better. – at Turnersville, NJ

There are two types of surgeons: 1.The surgeon who thinks everything they do is great 2.The surgeon who thinks everything they do can always be done better Life long learning and pursuit of improvement must be our goal of training the mindset of all surgeons
