Fantastic research by @_Matt_Simpson regarding 'The Lived Experience of Paramedics Delivering Care to the Mentally Unwell'. Improved education and practical application is needed to refine paramedics capabilities in providing mental health care #ACPIC23

I am hoping you will all share this for me. Are you an paramedic in Australia who has been required to manage a person who has taken methamphetamine and required escort/transport to an emergency department (ED)? We want to hear about your experiences! Check out the details below

Very saddened to hear the news of the suicide of 3 @EastEnglandAmb staff in recent days. It may be very difficult but if you’re feeling this way, please talk to someone. Your life matters to the world. Never think that no-one’s bothered. We are, and we will be there for you. – at South West, England

Dear physicians: when a patient has cancer everywhere, is dying, and comes to you for pain management, the answer is NOT 1mg morphine PO q4h. They are DYING. No one should die in pain. The risk of addiction is zero. Please, PLEASE prescribe adequate end of life analgesia.

The stats on doctor suicide is horrifying. Be horrified too, by the sheer number of doctors who are disillusioned, disengaged and disempowered. The crisis begins way upstream. The solutions need to start up there.

I’ve decided to post a photo every day for the next thirty days of something that I’m actively doing to boost my mental health and recover from the burn out of this semester. It’s a fun activity to spread awareness for mental health and well-being. Feel free to get onboard!

A message to the #HaltonParamedics who refused to give my sister pain medication, while she lay on the floor in tears, with her back in spasm, and told her “you’re just going to have to push through it” I do hope you never, ever have to experience back spasms.
