Great news! A new patient record system has gone live in Northern Ireland today. It will let people access their own health information and will help healthcare services provide better, patient-focused care. (1/2) bit.ly/3GZ0ioS


I’m not a catholic but I do work in a hospital in Transplant theatres. Pop Francis is so correct!

This is good 💯 Pope Francis wrote this in the Hospital. “The walls of hospitals have heard more honest prayers than churches... They have witnessed far more sincere kisses than those in airports... It is in hospitals that you see a homophobe being saved by a gay doctor. A…

Today the public has rallied behind us as we have powerfully demonstrated the devastating impact of #PancreaticCancer in the UK. It is unacceptable that 797 people die of this cruel disease every month. We need to do more. Early detection is vital to improve survival rates.

We welcome the Government's announcement of a Health Data Research Service, giving researchers easier access to health data and speeding up clinical trials. We hope it improves data collection and sharing to help spot patterns and breakthroughs for people with pancreatic cancer.

We're taking action to speed up the discovery of life-saving drugs, improve patient care and make the UK the best place in the world for medical research. This new drive could set the UK on a path to cure cancer, dementia, and arthritis quicker. Details: gov.uk/government/new…

This afternoon we’re delighted to be @HouseofCommons for the @AMRC, talking to parliamentarians about our work to develop the world’s first breath test for #PancreaticCancer @IC_VAPOR_Study which has the potential to save thousands of lives every year.

In my (simple) view the best Christmas song of all time and sadly both singers no longer with us. Merry Christmas to young and old

Apparently Fairytale of New York by The Pogues with the wonderful Kirsty MacColl isn't well known outside of Ireland and the UK (not even in New York!) If you're one of my international friends who doesn't know it, you're in for a treat for the next four minutes:

The National Pancreatic Cancer Audit has today published its first report into the state of pancreatic cancer care - a huge step for understanding the reality of people's experience. But it has highlighted huge issues in people's treatment and care. 1/4
