Word of the day is ‘recrudescence’ (17th century): the return of something terrible after a time of reprieve.

This thread with devastating testimony of @Kevin_Fong 💔
Prof @Kevin_Fong giving the most devastating and moving testimony to the Covid Inquiry of visiting hospital intensive care units at the height of the second wave in late Dec 2020.

It's been a while, but I am back with @Johnnygcake to talk about what it means to 'respect' the dead. This is a musing blog and reflects the early stages of a collaboration. We're keen to engage with others on this and to get your thoughts: deadbodiesandthelaw.wordpres…

Oops, here I am quoting myself. I wrote this thread over a year ago. I work in a different mortuary now (still Up North) and today I had a coroner's officer call from *250 miles away* to refer a paediatric case 1/7
A drum I will continue to bang. When talking about post-mortems, the default deceased seems to be an adult. There has been a lot in the news about the strain on post-mortem services affecting adults recently - lack of pathologists, service pressures. A muddled thread 🧵1/15

I asked the coroner's officer today when do you think the Chief Coroner for England and Wales might step in to do...something? Or RCPath? Apparently I was not the first person today to say that. But what can they do? You can't conjure up pathologists 6/7

Excellent thread. Just one of the issues we face as an unregulated profession ourselves as APTs. Been having convos this week at work about this - minimum standard of skill/remit of APTs expected by our pathologists; who should set out scope of practice etc @AAPTTweets
There has been lots of discussion about Scope of Practice recently.
I spent several months trying to understand concepts of scope and regulation for a piece of funded research.
So here is a bit about what I learnt.

A 1977 interview with 108 year old Mrs Florence Pannel who was born in 1868. She shares her memories and speaks about life for women in Victorian times. Born before the aeroplane and 101 when man landed on the moon. Her accent is remarkable.

The increased reliance on AHP/Advanced Practitioners etc has further consequences that I haven't seen mentioned yet - they are not allowed to sign MCCDs.
As somebody who has a lot of these procedures I always like to comfort myself on the level of training that the person doing them has - so I do have some questions 🙋♀️
