Connected Paediatrics Weekly: Check those systems


Hi Reader

Dad Joke: What happens if you eat Christmas decorations? You get tinsel-itis

Song of the Week: Coldplay - Man in the Moon

This week was…interesting.

I got an email from a student saying that they couldn’t access the technique bank on our membership. Now the technique bank is kind of the backbone of the operation, it’s where you go when you need to know how to adjust a sphenoid, test a newborns tone, help out with tummy time etc…it’s a quick reference when you need it…and it needs to be up and running!

Turns out our learning platform decided to update and we needed to tweak a few things to get the technique bank up and running, quick turnaround and everything was sorted chop chop…

But… it made me take a good hard look at the content.

Turns out we have covered a lot of ground on the masterclasses in the last few years, the research has updated and even though the technique bank is awesome…it could be even more awesome.

So that’s the new plan…updates.

But I wouldn’t have thought of it had we not had a crisis that made me refocus.

How are the forms in your office, the systems for new patients, your care plan maintenance? If you haven't looked over them in a while, take this as the sign to review. You may find there is space for more awesome in your practice

P.S. If you are already on the membership…you’re in for a holiday treat…we’re uploading new content to the technique bank all this week.

Chat soon,

Mike

Hi Reader Dad Joke: What do you call the number seven when it has a cold? Sick Seven So ... This week I had the chance to spend the afternoon with a group of doulas, midwives, and tongue-tie practitioners…and honestly, it was one of the most useful “professional development” moments I’ve had in a while. And not because it was formal…in fact quite the opposite. It was relaxed and that created the perfect space over coffee and tiny sandwiches for something we don’t get enough of in paediatrics:...

Hi Reader Dad Joke: My mechanic said I can pick up my car at 5pm. I told him I don't think I'll be strong enough by then! Song of the Week: Robert Miles x Adele - Children X Set Fire To The Rain X Murdah Do you examine children like a bad mechanic? You know who I’m talking about, the type of guy who pokes around your possibly dodgy car engine making “hmm” and “ugh” noises, only to conclude at the end, with a sigh “Yep, it’s dysfunctional!” "What? What’s dysfunctional?" No clarity, just...

Aha Moment - lightbulb!

Hi Reader Dad Joke: A tiger went to the chiropractor for pain. The chiropractor touched the tiger's back and asked "Is this the spot?" The tiger said "No, that's a stripe." Song of the Week: Follow the Sun - Xavier Rudd I am writing to you from Hanover airport in northern Germany. A delayed flight has given me time to sit and think about this weekend. I have been in Braunschweig, teaching my Peads in Motion 2: Toddlers to Teens Seminar. And I have to say…I am slowly falling in love with...
