A prestigious blue plaque was today unveiled by his son Tristram Charnley and the Mayor of Wigan outside the centre for hip surgery.

They might be acting against advice, but we should still make their discharge as safe as possible.
The Surgeons' Hall Riot happened #OTD in 1870. The Edinburgh 7 arrived at Surgeons' Hall to sit their anatomy exam & were met by a crowd of male students & several hundred onlookers who opposed of women studying medicine. Not to be deterred the women went on to sit their exam.
TOTYs across the country - what a sight! 😍
Thank you to all the trainers who dedicate their time and effort to us trainees! We are forever grateful to you all! 🙏
“I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.
"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”

Some things I’ve learnt over the last few days as an inpatient that I will use in my clinical practise - staff work hard and are trying their best, that a smile to a patient makes all the difference, to flush cannulas gently because it can sting at the start, that being told…
No where near the funding or the resources yet 0.3 off the top slot
