@Ryanair why oh why when trying to change the date of a booked flight from June to July 2025 does the return flight keep coming up as an error when selecting?
How can we possibly change the flights to a date we can travel??? This is as time consuming as frustrating

[Heather Sahunta @HSahunta]

@JamieMusical What an amazing final night, the energy was electric. Thanks 😍👠💃

[Jane Gunn @gunn_jane1]

Dear new Doctors rotating to maternity hospitals this month - please visually inspect the infant palate as part of the newborn examination & refer promptly to the local cleft team👍 Thank you for your attention 😁

@Katewales20 Interesting question, I’ve often wondered about how interesting it would be to be a fly on the wall to see how others frame their sessions. Just the ethics and confidentiality to overcome 🤔

[Heather Sahunta @HSahunta]

@NurseStandard RIP to an inspirational leader

[Heather Sahunta @HSahunta]

Dear All Nurses, you are never a ‘just’ and you are not ‘the’ pay grade. We are strong, safety critical advocates for our patients, keep doing what you’re doing. #InternationalNursesDay

[Nursing Standard @NurseStandard]

Have you ever described yourself as 'just a nurse'?

A brilliant post and a reminder to all health care professionals to look at palates with a touch and tongue depressor - a look and a feel just don’t work and leads to a missed diagnosis #cleftawarenessweek

[Andrew Fraser @cartoonsidrew]

Today like @CLAPACOMMUNITY were talking about cleft palate which is less visible than cleft lip. My son was also born with a cleft palate which was noticed at birth, but it is sometimes harder to diagnose if no cleft lip… #cleftaware #cleftawarenessweek

[Heather Sahunta @HSahunta]

I’m just going to leave the first sentence to speak for itself 🥰

If you work with infants on the neonatal unit (particularly EoE folk but all welcome) and would like to learn a bit about why neonatal feeding can be a challenge, join our virtual study day and hear from our amazing EoE teams about their work to support these infants

I have generated a word cloud of menopause symptoms based on a large survey of nearly 6,000 women we did recently - the larger words are the more common symptoms. 

Notice how many of the most common symptoms are related to the brain!

What a delightful morning, speaking with primary school children in assembly about my job as a cleft nurse. The school were engaged, asked brilliant questions about clefts, and to top it off they were having a non-uniform day to raise money for @CLAPACOMMUNITY 👏🏻 @nottmchildrens

[Heather Sahunta @HSahunta]
