  1. fedi folks that wear both masks and makeup!, i've got a question for you. i've always figured that the two are mutually exclusive, so i've often elected to wear a mask instead of makeup (things like eyeliner excluded). is there a routine any of y'all do for full-face foundation or anything else that survives wearing a mask for the majority of the day? advice appreciated! <3

    Mental Capacity – Do not assume capacity. In liaison with the Mental Capacity Act 2005, professionals should consider completing a Mental Capacity Assessment (MCA) to establish whether the women can give informed consent. Professionals should also consider best interest, Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DoLS) and involving an Independent Mental Capacity Advocate (IMCA).
    E
    Efficient discharge – Professionals should consider possible support that can be put into place to ensure a person-centered discharge is consolidated. Consider, access to health and additional services, transport, financial support and accommodation.

    "3.4 Learning Disabilities support
    Although 7% of people with learning disabilities become parents ( Best Beginnings) the Equality Act 2010 obligates responsibility to service providers to ensure that reasonable adjustments are put into place to ensure the holistic needs of people with learning disabilities are met to the highest standards.
    Remember to think VALUE ME! (Appendix 1)

    1. Early intervention strategies should be considered. Ensure that the community midwife is involved and if they are under 20 consider discussion with the specialist teenage pregnancy midwife for additional support.
    2. Professionals should ensure that adequate time is provided for consultations, appointments and formal discussions. Taking time to allow the woman to understand the information in
    order to make an informed decision.
    3. Professionals should ensure that reasonable adjustments are put into place to aid with understanding. Including: easy read, pictorials, large font, visual and hearing aids.
    4. Abilities led practice rather than inabilities led practice. Professionals should avoid making assumptions based on a diagnosis of a learning disability as often mothers will have their own anxieties, fears and worries regarding motherhood.
    5. Avoid assuming that mothers are being difficult. Consider other possible reasons such as the environment, loud noises, bright lights (especially if they have a dual diagnosis of learning disability and ASD), sensory needs, stress and anxiety. Provide a side room if possible."

  9. After like 2-3 weeks of basically rest and not having to go anywhere cuz of the kids' winter break, I am even more acutely aware of how much energy walking takes out of me and how much I could get done in a day if I didn't have to leave the house or walk extended stretches four times a day.

  13. Tried out ON1 Photo Raw this weekend to play around with photos. The app crashes constantly, it's lacking some functions I'd use, and I'm extremely annoyed there aren't more high quality post processing apps for android. Still, this ain't come out too bad
