Things to read
Trisha Greenhalgh has published an essay in the BMJ this week 'Evidence based medicine: a movement in crisis?" discussing distortion of evidence, too much evidence, marginal improvements and risk assessment, algorithmic rules and multimorbidity are some of the problems she identifies and she calls for a return to 'real evidence based medicine'. It can be read in full here

Things we did

We had our annual library staff away day this week where we had an interesting discussion on our role within the trust as regards education and we set our objectives for future developments...we didn't go very far away but had a good view of the Henderson's factory!

Also this last week journal club was held - the next one is Tuesday 1st July 17:30-18:30...book the date now




Things to BBQ
With fine weather forecast - and the longest day of the year on Saturday it sounds like a good opportunity for a BBQ.  Mackerel with sizzled garlic, ginger & tomatoes is good for something different or perhaps Stuffed peppers and a great BBQ dessert favourite in my family is Pineapple in lime, vanilla and rum syrup
