Join us for a relaxed round up of this month’s Red Whale primary care Pearls of wisdom. This month, Nik and Caroline discuss

• Intrauterine systems, and how they just got a bit simpler
• Diabetes and frailty -  how we need all our primary care superpowers across the whole multi-professional team to think about the big picture
• Joining with Up: The Adult Cerebral Palsy Movement to help us increase our confidence in supporting adults with cerebral palsy
• Antidepressants - help or harm? What we can learn from the BBC Panorama documentary?

And hear a clinical room calamity from one listener involving a fabulous skirt and a sample pot!
