Great session teaching today- fantastic to see lots of staff who are eager to help reduce pressure ulcers in our patient- remember prevention of pressure damage is better for a patient than having to treat pressure damage

Sometimes the pressures on the NHS don't hit home until you see if for yourself. Tonight @bbcpointswest I speak to Marie @Precioustimes12 who wrote a public apology to staff at the NHS after being admitted to A&E in #Gloucester recently. Thanks to Marie for her honesty.
To all those people that are supporting the NHS staff by putting a ๐ in your name THANK YOU. If you are unsure why this is being done please watch this video https://t.co/mwDgNyjlPJ
