Preventing #loneliness is particularly challenging, says @juliebarnett.bsky.social from @uniofbath.bsky.social, because it’s both a feeling (therefore subjective), but also potentially not present yet - so we must dig deeper to examine behaviours, root causes, social indicators and more

Another question for my #SocialCare network - what #tech promises too much and delivers too little? We are all too aware that care is relationship-driven and certain tasks can’t be automated(?) without something vital being lost. E.g. washing, dressing, getting out of bed, eating and medication.

Let's be clear, Wellbeing in healthcare is not fluffy stuff. It's about workload, staffing, systems & culture. It's about valuing our own needs, modelling humanity & vulnerability, Creating spaces where people feel able to be authentic & ask for help. Wellbeing must be a priority. #MedSky
