Connection

I woke this morning with a single word on my mind. 

‘Connection’. 

The feeling it evoked ran deep and powerful, and on so many levels I’ve discovered it is a word worth pondering over. 

‘Below Ten Thousand’ is simple. 

It is about connecting. 

It is about bringing everyone equally together in the same room. 

Everyone has their own job to do. 

But every now and then it is important that everybody lay their distractions at their feet and be equally present together. 

Surgical Count

Induction of anaesthesia

Time-out

Extubation

Slowing down moments. 

S.I.T.E.S.

At these times it’s all for one and one for all. 

In these moments, for the sake of patient safety, it is important that the whole team connect. 

It’s that simple. 

So many thanks. 

Pete!
