Consultants can always be relied upon to drive productivity, but it is important the right productivity metrics are used that capture the ‘value’ for patients as well as the volume of care provided, IHCA President @GColleranMD tells its Annual Conference in Kilkenny #IHCA2025

Will you miss the “meeting of the future” in the “futuristic city” for anything? Here are top reasons why you should not: 1. A great refresher for those in practice. 2. A fellowship step for those who want to certify. 3. No death-by-PowerPoint here folks… it’s all practical!

A must read piece by @SarahFitzWiMIN
Any serious diagnosis can trigger an endless search for the ‘why’. Why did this happen to me? What did I do wrong? Whose fault is it? Shouldn’t someone have been able to prevent it? Blame and shame are unhelpful emotions when dealing with cancer, but often go hand in hand.
