#BillGranger These are our most tattered, food stained and well loved set of his cookery books. Sending deepest sympathies to his family that featured in his books and made it feel like he was sharing his love of his family and food with us.

@EmergMedDr But they will fix ALL of the problems in the NHS. This is what we need…….

The new waiting area for paediatric theatres is open, along with lovely new signs- making the area much more family friendly. @NuhTheatres @nottmchildrens @ClinSupportNUH @NUH_QPST (cute photos taken with permission)

For many people, what matters the most during a hospital stay is SLEEP

In the middle of the night:

No loud bin lids
No loud speaker phones on
No shouting across corridor
No screeching wheels
No talking really loud
No clanging of cups
No slamming doors

Sleep is part of recovery

This is exasperating! Here is a 10ml syringe in appropriately sized packaging, below it is another 10ml syringe in a vast amount of plastic 🤯
How to we address this? #wastemanagement #surgery #NUHTheatres #NUH_QI

5 stages of burnout: What to look out for 🔥

[Esther Gordon #vaccinated @EstherEdam]

I’ve been working @NuhTheatres for a few months now. I have always appreciated the domestic staff around the hospital. But the domestics here are outstanding and hard working. Folded papers every day, friendly and helpful. #teamwork @TeamNUH 👏👏

So impressed with #NHS. Same day appointment with physio for my 15y.o son. Very thorough assessment, including asking what was going on with his leg hair…He’d lost a bet and had two wax strips applied!!😂

We had a brilliant time @dwtimefracture in London. Immersive, fun and the sets were incredible. A family of very happy #DoctorWho fans! Wonder if you can guess our daughter’s favourite Doctor…#BowTies #Geronimo

@RussInCheshire Me and my Dr Who loving daughter (9) think that it should be a child. Someone of Karen’s (from outnumbered) calibre…

In a new address overnight, Zelensky spoke directly to Russian soldiers, in Russian: “You will not take anything from Ukraine. You will take lives... But your lives will also be taken. But why should you die? What for? I know that you want to survive.”

Assuming the brace position. Here we go again. Good grief this is exhausting.

@TantamKate @UHP_NHS Wow! That’s wonderful 🌞🌼🌻

@BowerRbower @NUHSurgery @nottmchildrens @TeamNUH Going to work in paediatric theatres as a theatre practitioner. Hoping that I’ll be able to use some of my PICU skills and develop new ones.

[Esther Gordon #vaccinated @EstherEdam]

Goodbye PCCU, 13 years (give or take two daughters)! I never thought that I’d be a #PICUNurse, then I couldn’t imagine being anything else. 💞
But change is good, and I’m looking forward to my next learning curve ⁦@NUHSurgery⁩ ⁦@nottmchildrens⁩ ⁦@TeamNUH⁩
