June 2026

[upbeat music] Hello, and welcome to the June 2026 episode of the RCM Learning Podcast.

I'm Robert Hurst, and I am your host for this very special episode.

Now it's heading towards the summer, and everyone is busy all of the time.

Because of a run of shifts I have towards the back half of the month, I've been going away for some shared parental leave for a month.

I am actually gonna be pre-recording these next two episodes.

So if there has been some sort of heatwave induced thermonuclear war, then hopefully these next two episodes will get you through those quiet hours in the bunker.

Remember, do not leave the bunker.

If this is the first time you're listening to the podcast, hello.

We do love to hear your thoughts and your feedback.

If you'd like to get in contact with us, you can reach us at our email address, which is rcmlearningpodcast@gmail.com. You can also leave us a comment on your podcast reader of choice, and we are always up for hearing your comments, your thoughts, and the ways in which we can improve the podcast.

Annie and Dave are also just as busy, and so we'll be welcoming them back as we leave summer and the weather starts cooling down.

So we'll ca- check up with them in, uh, a couple of months' time.

In the June episode, we are going to be hearing from Becky and Chris as they walk us through the first in a two-parter, looking at the Surviving Sepsis Campaign guidelines that have recently been updated and released.

I am then gonna be speaking with Alison Tavare, who is the lead of the recently released NCPOD report, examining the care of adults with learning disabilities presenting to the hospital with acute illness.

These are two great chats, and I am really looking forward to you hearing them.

So we'll start with Becky and Chris talking to us about the first part of the Surviving Sepsis Campaign guidelines.

Take it away.
