@BartsFrailty
As a part of our research at UCL, we are looking for Dietitians who work with the identification and management of Frailty in the Older Population.If you know any Dietitian working with people with frailty, kindly share and pass on! Thank you😇

[RCNi: the life-long learning partner for nurses @rcni]

All nurses working with older people's care deserve the highest praise for the specialist work they do, but do you know a nurse or a team who is extraordinary?

Enter #RCNAwards to share the impact older people's nurses have in improving patient care.

@Triciahandley @docofagesSophie @clairedavis45 @ClaireDow1 @JenLeonard6 @CGZimuto Was beaten by younger son on the plank as I just managed a minute and he did over 2! Not sure I'm looking forward to the build up in squats now as min over next 10 days is 30!
