Today we’re hearing from Ruth Chinuck, Clinical Lead Dietitian for Critical Care at University Hospital Birmingham.

📈 Ruth shares the reality of introducing indirect calorimetry—from learning curves to leadership:
👩‍⚕️ “Getting the MDT on board has been essential for building confidence and competencies.”
🤝 “And don’t underestimate the value of peer support—especially when you’re short-staffed!”

💡 Collaboration + tech = better outcomes!
