Frederick and Mary of Denmark, all opulence in their first portrait

Frederick and Mary of Denmark They have released an official portrait after their proclamation as kings last January. A photograph together and the respective individual ones that mark the beginning of his reign with many historical symbols. From the chosen room to your position, passing, of course, through the impressive emerald tiara worn by the Queen.

Mary from Denmark has worn everything: a dress velvet and green guipure lace with the most impressive jewels from the Danish collection. In particular, it carries the emerald set that only queens can wear and that cannot leave the country. The tiara, made of silver, diamonds and emeralds in 1840 for the celebration of the silver wedding anniversary of Christian VIII.

She has a matching choker, earrings and a brooch, although she does not wear the latter in the images. Coincidentally, the last time this set, which has 67 emeralds and 2,650 diamonds, was seen in public was during the gala dinner that Queen Margarita offered on the occasion of the state visit of Kings Felipe and Letiziain November of last year.

The first portrait of Felipe and Letizia as kings

The portrait of Federico y Mary It is striking because the couple has made an ode to opulence that has little to do with the first photograph of Don Felipe and Doña Letizia. It arrived in 2020, five years after its proclamation like Kings, and they have not been repeated.

Those photos, published in February 2020, were taken by the portraitist Castro Stele, famous for its use of natural light. They included gala portraits like those of their counterparts in Denmark, but also others with family and with more stylish styles. bussiness casual. The style that Queen Letizia wore was not new at all: she wore the same Carolina Herrera dress which he had worn in Japan to attend the ceremony for Naruhito’s accession to the throne.

Regarding the jewels, she wore the same ones as on that occasion, which are some of the most important that the Spanish crown has. That is, the lis tiaralos diamond earrings and the Cartier twin braceletsthe pieces that he has worn on the most occasions.

The similarities and differences

Taken, as in the case of the Danes, in the Royal Palace of their capital, the Spanish ones are more institutional as they are taken from so far away. Those of Federico y Mary They look closer because it is a medium plane.

Guillermo and Máxima of Holland, who in 2013 released their first portrait as kings, opted for a framing similar to that of Don Felipe and Doña Letizia. In your case, It was also a more discreet photograph, even more than the Spanish one. Although the queen of the Netherlands is one of the royals who can boast in Europe of having an impressive collection of jewelry to show off. And despite the fact that his personality and personal style have always been characterized by surprising bets.

They also have in common the military dress of both Kings and that, in both cases, the Queen is slightly ahead of her husband. This was not the case with William, since he is not the head of the Dutch Armed Forces. The postures are also notable in all three cases. Federico y Mary They appear completely in front and it is she who puts her hand in front. The king of the Netherlands and his wife appear completely equal. And, finally, in the case of Felipe and Letizia the posture is more affectionate. Although they do not appear to be touching, the Spaniards seem to be giving each other a discreet half-hug due to their diagonal positions.

Patients who have multiple conditions at the same time are often sent from one department to another where specialist doctors carry out their treatments separately. Patients often get lost in a care maze.

Patients are often their own care managers of their increasingly complex care processes. Because what exactly had which doctor done? And the cardiologist did not warn against the medicines that the internist had prescribed for one disease because those medicines would actually worsen the other disease?

Patients are forced to keep an overview themselves, because consultation and coordination between doctors with different medical specialties is not a given, according to joint research by the NOS and News hour.

Wobbly

This leads to fragmented care and can cause disasters, for example due to medication errors. 79-year-old Anjo Geluk has experienced what the lack of coordination can lead to.

She feels “wobbly on her legs” after her original knee was replaced. If she wants to get anywhere now, a crutch is a necessity. Because falling is no exception.

“We will never know whether my knee would have been in better condition if I had received good rehabilitation in the hospital,” says Geluk. Because she did not receive that when several doctors lost overview of her overall health situation.

Patient as a ping-pong ball

A hospital bacterium got into her knee while she was in the orthopedics department and a serious infection was the result. Heavy antibiotic treatments through the IV were required for weeks to remove the bacteria. Geluk’s kidneys were damaged as a side effect of the medication. So she was suddenly transferred to the nephrology department.

“Without any consultation with me, but apparently there was no coordination between the doctors,” says Geluk. “Because I never saw anyone from orthopedics again, even though I needed guidance with exercises for my knee to rehabilitate properly.”

The story of Happiness does not stand alone. In fact, there are also patients who are not only a ping-pong ball between departments within one hospital, but even between several hospitals.

This happened to Diana Kwast. She developed multiple chronic diseases and had 9 different specialists in 5 different hospitals:

Patients like Geluk and Kwast who have multiple conditions at the same time will become the most common patients in hospitals until 2040. And this is already visible to those who ask people about their situation during rush hour at the outpatient clinics of the Jeroen Bosch Hospital in Den Bosch.

An older woman on a mobility scooter: “I spend too much time in the hospital, with different doctors: ophthalmologist, rheumatologist, for Parkinson’s, internist, neurologist, various surgeons. I have just been there again for twelve days.”

‘Hospital subscription’

A man in his 66s with a mobility scooter also appears to be a regular customer. “Only twice this year, but last year 23 times, including my operation on my leg. And now that sugar has just been discovered, I also have a cataract in my eye.”

“I never came to the hospital, but now I have a subscription,” said an 84-year-old man. “I have to be here at least eight more times in the coming months. I do vascular surgery, cardiology and nephrology.”

In this hospital in Den Bosch, the doctors are busy adapting how they treat and work together. Since the corona pandemic, internists, clinical geriatricians, pulmonologists and cardiologists have been working together every morning in a special admission department to develop a treatment plan for complex patients during a structural consultation.

The program is successful. On average, patients can go home two days earlier. In addition, patients visit fewer doctors because the collaboration has halved the number of mutual referrals. Due to its success, the hospital will also make the new working method the standard in other departments. The first outpatient clinic will switch to the new way of working from May. This hospital is currently one of the few places where work is done in this way.

A primary school teacher saved the lives of nine children by preventing the vehicle they were traveling in from crashing after the driver collapsed, in the Russian city of Tula, in the province of the same name.

According to Tatiana Shulenina, the distressing incident, which occurred last June, occurred when she and the minors were returning home from a children’s camp. The driver, during the journey, lost consciousness and the bus entered the opposite lane. “I got up, grabbed the steering wheel first and drove towards our lane,” the teacher said in an interview with the REN TV channel.

When he drove the vehicle into his lane, he sat between the two seats and tried to reach the pedals, but later he realized that there was a railway bridge and it was very dangerous to go under. So she decided to drive into a field. “There [en el campo] I already reached for the pedals, the clutch and the brake, pressed them and stopped the vehicle,” Shulenina recalls.

«The action of our compatriot is worthy of special respect. In an emergency situation, he showed initiative and courage, he did not allow the tragedy,” said the governor of Tula, Aleksei Dyumin, in a statement at the beginning of August.

In addition, he reported that the teacher will be recognized with the regional Honor and Courage medal on September 9, on the day of the province of Tula and the Hero City of Tula, noting that Shulenina “reacted in time”, took control off the bus on a busy road, took the children to safety and also called an ambulance to assist the driver.
