My compatriot and fellow Crohn’s patient suggested we should make a podcast about IBD, so we did. First episode is now up on Spotify - open.spotify.com/show/0GgADPx... We had fun making it and I’ve learnt a lot about editing. There may be a few rough edges for this first one!

Many of the CNS roles at my Trust are 1 to 2 year secondments. I’m finally settling in to my role and I will need to leave soon, as these secondments can’t be extended due to HR policies. It is not good for patient safety, having so many CNSs with <2 years experience. @alisonleary1.bsky.social

My motivation at work is simply to be appreciated (by patients and colleagues), but my new managers are quite bad at showing this. I’ve just realised that I’ve picked up a habit of sending them the occasional email where I praise myself (on their behalf 😂).

We found an old guy sitting in our drive, soaked in the rain. My instinct was that maybe he had dementia. No, he was just v drunk. After much persuasion he told us his address & we took him home. His wife opened the door & gave us that angry “did you get my husband drunk” look. Little did she know!

Starter packs and lists are too clubby. Let's all take responsibility for alerting their owners to names that should be on there. And yes I am talking about equality, diversity, inclusion and decolonising. Find the list owner, suggest a name(s). Simples.

Bluesky seems a nice enough place to say this. If you go to your industry/academic conference and spend all your time catching up with professional friends - you are part of the reason newcomers call the conference “cliquey and unwelcoming”. If you’re established, talk to newcomers. It’s that easy.
