Listening to Christmas music and decorating the tree alongside patients (with baubles that they made in social group) has been such a heartwarming part of my day.
Infinitely grateful to have the most wonderful job in the world 🎄❤️
@kayleigh_psw and I put our lovely Christmas tree up today in the OT department with the help of some of our service users... we even have some hand made decorations which finish it off perfectly 🎄🎅🏻
