The NT Attorney General is correctly identifying the root causes of youth crime - disability, domestic violence, lack of housing, trauma - so why pass legislation that doesn't address these things but instead pushes children into prison?! #ntpol

"Evidence-based solutions recognise youth crime is not solely a justice issue: it’s also health and disability issue." Important article from Nick Fancourt @Fantwit and Olga Havnen as the NT debate changes to youth justice. theconversation.com/the-nts-tough-… via @ConversationEDU


Nick Fancourt reposted

The NT government has proposed legislative changes to youth justice, including tightening access to bail and diversion, particularly for re-offenders. @Fantwit explains why these changes could do more harm than good: theconversation.com/the-nts-tough-… @MenziesResearch

Overwhelmed with how to integrate COVID-19 evidence into clinical practice? @evidenceCOVID19 is a fantastic, continuously updated, evidenced-based resource for the assessment and management of COVID-19. I'm thrilled to be part of the expert panel on paediatric & adolescent care

Our latest guideline update includes new recs for respiratory support in neonates, children, & adolescents, specifically: • Prone positioning (mech. ventilation) • PEEP • Recruitment manoeuvres • Neuromuscular blockers covid19evidence.net.au @AshaBowen @brendanmcID
