#DiagnosticOvershadowing 101 - AFTER I’d been diagnosed with #sepsis and had a history in the preceding days of having been intubated and extubated twice, with stridor noted post the second extubation, I got this beauty written in my notes!
#MentalHealth #NHS #ActuallyAutistic
I've been thinking about #death & #grief for people with #LearningDisabilities +/- #autism &came across this excellent resource to download via #cwpld
#Diagnosticovershadowing in the community when experiencing grief is an issue,supporting grieving could potentially prevent that
If I had a $ for every time I’ve heard, “but isn’t that their autism” when young person with ASD has psychotic sx...
Important message here: Ppl w/ASD and psychotic sx are just as high risk for psychosis as ppl without ASD.

Wow listening to Grace's story! #LDNsymp #LDSymp22 #LDSymposium2022 #LDsymp #LearningDisabilityNurse #LearningDisabilityNursing #Diagnosticovershadowing
Powerful presentation by Linda Dickinson about ‘Getting it wrong. Why symptoms are missed’ at today’s #dontletmedietooyoung North East & Cumbria Learning Disability Network Annual Learn and Share Event for the LeDeR programme #DiagnosticOvershadowing
Revealing a mental illness diagnosis to any type of HCP may (and often does) result in them dismissing real illness symptoms as figments of your imagination. Another reason people with SMIs die 20 years younger than other people. #MentalHealth #DiagnosticOvershadowing #MedTwitter
#OliverMcGowanMandatoryTraining another emotive, thought provoking day & co production at it's best. We always take the time to talk about and think about Oliver both openly and self reflectively. Thank you Paula McGowan OBE. #DiagnosticOvershadowing
Loving the opening keynote by Dorothy Bishop during The DLD Project #IDLDRC 2022. “Language problems don’t go away over time. Rather the problems become less obvious.” #DiagnosticOvershadowing #DevLangDis
Today was the Day 😢
⚠️ Trigger Warning
This time 4 years ago we entered those doors of the hospital and returned home 6 weeks later.

Managing burnout is really difficult.
Its even more difficult if you or others aren' t aware of what this is.
Awareness is key to the right support for burnout.

ALL behaviour is a form of communication! Sometimes you just need to allow time to work out what is being communicated. #knowyourpatient #knowthehistory

Wishing all the wonderful Nurses out there a brilliant #InternationalNursesDay in particular my lovely LD_Liaison_SABP colleagues ⭐️ Thank you Surrey and Borders and SASH NHS Trust for having me at your #internationalnursesconference2023 to host a workshop on #DiagnosticOvershadowing ⭐️
Dr Jyoyi Sood a GP presenting on #ReasonableAdjustments and #DiagnosticOvershadowing #ImprovingHealthChecks - cannot overestimate the importance of mainstream health colleagues influencing in their circles #NEl #LederConference Ruth Cooper 💙
Such an important discussion on #DiagnosticOvershadowing . See the person, not the diagnosis! So important, especially in those with learning disabilities. Diagnostic overshadowing kills. We must be teaching nursing students of all fields about LD needs #RCN18 RCN Students
