Intensive Care Week is a perfect time to encourage all my fellow ODPs with an interest in critical care to join @ics-updates.bsky.social and push the profession forward @collegeodp.bsky.social
This week is Critical Care Week, @ics-updates.bsky.social SOA24 last year, I presented a poster on ODPs in the critical care environment, slowly the word is getting out there. #ODP
That’s my first two weeks @yorkstjohn.bsky.social completed, after thirty years in clinical practice. I have learnt so much about the course and myself. Thank you everyone @yorkstjohn.bsky.social for the support.
Excellent programme from @ics-updates.bsky.social for #SOA24 still time to buy your tickets.
