("A cathedral," indeed.)

We saw that show a couple of years ago when we were in town for KJ's big pallimed meeting. It really was amazing.

Hello Bluesky!

Pallimed is a website about #Hospice & #PalliativeCare started in 2005 by @drosielle.bsky.social. Account run by @ctsinclair.bsky.social.

Dormant since 2022, but planting a flag here as it starts to grow.

We got fancy & made our username the same as the site!

I put a hashtag primer on Twitter to try to get people to coalesce & follow each other. I need to do the “fun” ones next. You, @drosielle.bsky.social, Pallimed, @ewidera.bsky.social & Alex Smith all credited bc that’s when I showed up 😀 If I missed other OGs, you’ll have to fill in the blanks.

Hi Team #ComfortFood and #HCWvsHunger!

I found a link today that's offering a 4x match for your donation. What I love about www.heifer.org is they help communities learn how to farm, raise donated livestock, and become self-sustaining. Beautiful!

Coming down from the conference high, missing my work bestie, and battling daylight savings + rainy day blues. What’s your go-to pick-me-up?
Bonus points if it’s not more caffeine (let’s be real-I’m at my limit). Send help—or at least memes. #PostConferenceBlues #sendsunshine #schapc25 #pallimed

My heart is still full from our #SCHAPC25 yesterday. So many wonderful colleagues and talks from experts in our field. I can’t wait for next year! #hapc #palliativecare #community #pallimed #socialworkmonth

Incredibly proud to be associated with Compassion in Dying who have produced another excellent report, exploring issues being faced by those who want to plan their end of life care

The insights from conversations with health care professionals hit hard & I think many will empathise
Today, we launch our new report: Bridging the gap: How to ensure people's decisions are respected at the end of life.

It shows that too many people are still dying in ways they explicitly said they did not want.
