For #HealthcareScienceWeek, we’re in the ICU looking at high-stakes critical care echo:

💚Bedside imaging
💚Real-time insights
💚Multidisciplinary teamwork

Bex Parsons-Simmonds on life at the heart of critical care:
https://www.bsecho.org/Public/News/Articles/2026/2026-03/202603-HCSW-Bex.aspx
"Working as an echo specialist in ITU means combining scientific precision with clinical insight under pressure. It brings advanced diagnostics to the bedside when they are needed most. Above all, it reflects the vital role healthcare scientists can play in modern critical care - using science, skills and teamwork to support patients at their most vulnerable." - Bex Parsons-Simmonds

Our final blog of #HealthcareScienceWeek is from Research and Audit Committee member, Dr Peter Luke - and he's providing some key top tips on how to approach a potential research mentor. Find the blog here: www.bsecho.org/Publi... #HCSW
We know that research or audit can be a daunting task to undertake. Like a lot of things in life, you can break down the tasks into manageable and achievable components with support of a mentor to guide you through the peaks and troughs.

Irish Regional Representative Ms Ceine Coffey is next up for our #HealthcareScienceWeek coverage with an update from the Republic of Ireland - check out her blog here: www.bsecho.org/Publi... #HCSW
In Ireland we struggle with most of the same issues as the UK, but in spite of the challenges we are still proactive and prevailing. Standards are often physiologist-led and we are a very passionate and progressive group of staff despite the challenges we face. Patient outcomes are at the core of our motivation and this is obvious in every department, with teams going above and beyond daily for their patients.
