From under 7's football to @UKCPA conference, a few knee operations on the way and lots of hard work. I'm showcasing the improvement of Gentamicin within @MidYorkshireNHS @myttAMS
Up early for Day 2 @HISConf.
Some great talks yesterday highlights, challenge of antifungal resistance and hyper virulent Klebsiella.
Here's me with my poster and repping @MovemberUK and some of the lovely Christmas lights by the docks #Liverpool @myttAMS @MidYorkshireNHS

My friends say I just give paracetamol out .
Across all sectors the role is so varied and provides for so many. Yes a sprinkle of paracetamol is needed, but we are medicine experts and I'm in a fantastic speciality where I use this knowledge everyday #WorldPharmacistsDay

Penicillin allergy?
Speak to a healthcare professional.
Infections can get harder to treat if you have a false Penicillin allergy label.

Meet Tommaso, our AMU pharmacist, training to help challenge and de-label penicillin allergies.
Penicillin allergies = longer hospital stay, worse outcomes, and increased cost. 6% report an allergy, but >90% of these are not allergic #WAAW2023

More pledges for #WAAW2023 This time it's the microbiologists. A fantastic team who help to educate and provide clinical advice to health care professionals in and out of hours.@myttAMS @MidYorksPathlab @EMMAGODFREYLOOM @MidYorkshireNHS
Antimicrobial resistance is an issue we are dealing with right now.
My gradient and splits on run to work this morning. It reminded me of PK/PD graphs, dashed line is the MIC, then this antibiotic (gradients) is not much use. Anyone else always thinking antibiotics 💉💊🔬@myttAMS
You can help tackle antibiotic resistance.
Target your treatment options by always seeking medical advice from a health professional before taking antibiotics.

Taking antibiotics for wrong reasons, such as against colds or flu, has no benefit for you.
Always seek advice from a health professional before taking antibiotics.

Stay hydrated – be healthy and prevent infections.
Watch @WYpartnership video as a reminder of why staying hydrated is important in avoiding infections and preventing unnecessary antibiotics.

Timed the return to work perfectly. Today is World Sepsis Day. Someone dies from sepsis every 3.5 seconds.
Ensuring appropriate escalation and using Sepsis 6 helps to save lives.@myttAMS @mytt_dart

Make sure that you or people you care for have enough medication to last through #BankHoliday weekend and order any repeat prescriptions in plenty of time.
You can order prescriptions through the NHS app ➡ nhs.uk/nhs-app
Don't be the Joker and flush antibiotics down the toilet, return them to your local pharmacy.
Why are we so serious about this? Antibiotics in waste water systems can drive the evolution of antibiotic resistant bacteria.

It’s day 4 of #WAAW2022 and today we’re covering “antimicrobials and untrue or spurious allergies”. As healthcare professionals we need the full details to your allergy #KeepAntibioticsWorking #AntibioticGuardian
Name: Clark Kent
Allergies: Kryptonite (reaction: causes severe weakness, date of first known reaction: 1949, topical administration)
It's important to document the nature, date, route and number of doses taken.
This helps identify true allergies.
