It was a privilege to be involved and to share the space and conversations with the team in the document. A multi-disciplinary approach to PoCUS. James Sen led & marshalled us so well. Hoping for future collabs & a unified POCUS group in the UK! fphc.rcsed.ac.uk/education-re...

Lots of words from the wise here on keeping everything steady for good needling technique in a recent tweetorial. I love the archer analogy from @jennyferry.bsky.social

Hi Bob!!

Thanks @dr-amit-pawa.bsky.social ! Oh boy...the pressure is on!
It's been quite tiring doing the tweetorial thing and there has been no work-life balance doing that 🤦🏻‍♂️ ...juggling shifts, Clinical Governance work ya da ya da ya da. I'm looking forward to my break on Saturday!

Thanks Robbie!!
