    Emotional resilience has become a buzzword in the helping professions. Although resilience has been incorporated into the “official discourse” of social work, it is important to consider: • What does resilience mean? • To what extent do we as social workers need to be resilient? • Can resilience really protect our wellbeing and improve our professional practice? • Perhaps most importantly, how can we build our resilience to help us thrive in a profession that, although rewarding, can be very stressful? This evidence-based resource by Community Care Inform, aims to provide some guidance to help you navigate your professional journey. Based on their own research and that of others, they highlight the importance of emotional resilience in protecting your personal wellbeing and enhancing your professional practice and suggest ways to help you develop this important quality.

    Using human factors science increases the likelihood of obtaining well-designed and easy to use products to deliver safe patient care. Poor designs, by contrast, can cause unintended harm to patients. This guide, developed by the Clinical Human Factors Group, is to help staff working in procurement or with medical devices and equipment, to use human factors to specify and select the best and safest products to use in healthcare. This is important because conformity with regulations and standards does not always guarantee safe outcomes when products are used in practice. This guide is particularly relevant to medical devices but can be used for other healthcare products.

    In part two of the BMJ Supportive and Palliative Care article, Dr Tavabie and Dr Ball explore the themes from frontline palliative care staff during the pandemic. In the time since their previous article, the news reports of escalating numbers of people dying from the virus, inadequate personal protective Equipment (PPE) provision and continued discussions of an impending ‘peak’ for the outbreak has painted a worrying picture. Further conversations with clinicians working to help patients dying from COVID-19 will hopefully provide readers with a diary and a window into the experiences of people working through the pandemic as the tide rises in the UK.

    Today we find ourselves in the middle of a pandemic. COVID-19 has swept across the globe with thousands dead, more seriously unwell, and a sense of anxiety and uncertainty within healthcare professions that is unlike anything we have seen. As the course of the viral illness becomes clearer, management guidelines are being produced, including around the topics of supportive and palliative care. To understand the real life implications of working on the front line, Dr Tavabie and Dr Ball, in this BMJ Supportive and Palliative Care article, conducted a series of short structured interviews with clinicians across the UK in a variety of healthcare settings, discussing their experiences and looking for themes arising from the current COVID-19 outbreak. They hope that quotes from these conversations make for an accurate description of our current time, and may be of interest now and in future. Read part two of the article
