Excellent work for an underprivileged population with kidney disease
Really excited about our new work describing how we disseminated kidney palliative care to a safety net setting. Implementation of Ambulatory Kidney Supportive Care in a Safety Net Hospital - Journal of Pain and Symptom Management jpsmjournal.com/article/S088…

300 hospice beds in England are closed due to critical funding and staffing pressures - 14% of total capacity. That’s 110,000 days and nights of care lost for those who need it. We’re calling on the government to act now. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/clyk…

Timely and topical Grand Round at St George Hospital, Sydney today. A review of the Voluntary Assisted Dying service over the past 12 months since it was legalised in New South Wales, Australia. Interestingly 85% of patients requesting VAD were being seen by palliative care.

86
Those who requested VAD were more likely to have cancer, to have witnessed a ‘bad death’ of someone they loved, and / or those who just didn’t want to go through the dying process “I want to be me until I die”. They were not typically those suffering from difficult symptoms.

I’ve learned lots on how palliative care can be integrated with other specialities to improve patient outcomes. open.substack.com/pub/kidney… ⁦⁦@kidneycareuk⁩ ⁦@UKKidney⁩ ⁦@ScottishRenal⁩ ⁦⁦@ChurchillFship⁩ ⁦@Palliative_Scot⁩ ⁦@NHSTayside⁩

Fantastic work! Travelling around USA /Australia has made me appreciate how good the Advanced Kidney Care education is from NHS Tayside renal team! @NHSTayside @ScottishRenal @kidneycareuk @UKKidney @Palliative_Scot @ScotPallNet
Better late than never! In case you missed our poster on the lessons learned about our AKCC cohort from the Tayside @PrepareKC RCT screening process Headline - low numbers recruited BUT due to good local practice -> 88% of patients having RRT decisions by eGFR </=15ml/min
