@RNAppleby What a great thread! I moved from working in a London hospital to work in Exeter as the clinical lead for stoma care, the best move I ever made! Fantastic, professional and motivated staff. Wishing you all the best in your role.
@michboucher1@littlemissileo I heard about it via a patient! I think the numbers in the UK that use the product are minimal, however there isn’t anything as a comparison as far as I know??
Do encourage people who need emotional support to book themselves in for this free tailored service. The feedback has been great 👇#Livingwithandbeyondcancer
Come along to our August HCA event, if you want to join our fantastic teams or simply want to explore what your options are or what the role entails come see us.
