Celebrating #WorldKidneyDay at Leicester General Hospital @Leic_hospital 7 years ago today! 10 months after my Dad donated his #kidney to me there. We are forever grateful to all the amazing renal staff 💖 @17Lgh @Ward15N @DrMattGB

These are so helpful for our staff who come to work not even knowing which ward they will be working on that day.

Difficult and challenging times at the moment for the ward, but we will come through this 👍

[LGH 17 Transplant @17Lgh]

Thank you to them all, so valued

Thank you UHL for my Amazon box. Being a peer vaccinator too, I can’t believe that a little token can bring so much joy to colleagues faces 😂@Leic_hospital @UHLRebeccaCOO @UHLRRCV

It’s an amazing feeling seeing all your OSCE nurses in pale blue. It’s like fledglings fleeing the nest. Onwards and upwards well done to them all so proud of their efforts @Leic_hospital @UHLfox @UHLRRCV

Started to take staff over to see the new ward at Glenfield. Think they were impressed or was it the air conditioning that swayed them. Happy times @UHLRRCV @Leic_hospital @UHLsue_mason

[LGH 17 Transplant @17Lgh]
