Patients being told they’re being referred to pain clinic for an opiate taper is an issue…optimising medicines doesn’t always mean reducing them and we certainly don’t do it till the patient is ready…but many won’t even step through the door if they’ve been told to expect this.

What an amazing, powerful, humbling day. Thank you, you were an inspiration to all of us.
And now the real work begins…

Penultimate planning day today for #TheSkylarkProject - a perioperative care pathway co-produced by @DrCSmall and #TheFlyingChildProject. Absolutely fantastic that #livedexperience will be behind this vital pathway for survivors. We meet in person in 2 days. Can’t wait!

We’re now open to referrals for Herefordshire residents from Primary and Secondary Care. Referral processes and criteria have been sent to all local providers. Outpatient clinics will be held at The County Hospital, Hereford, starting early next month. @WyeValleyNHS
Many thanks to @MakinsHelen and the Gloucestershire Hospitals Pain Service for all their support and guidance during the set up process...we're looking forward to continuing to work closely in the future.
