Huge news - the nurse title is going to be given legal protections, something people like @alisonleary1 @caspertown42 and many others have been campaigning for - for years
I've done it!
I'm moved my Ten Minute Rule Bill in @HouseofCommons, to ensure only those registered with the Nursing and Midwifery Council can call themselves a nurse.
Full speech to follow. Thanks again @protectnurse campaign. #ProtectNurse
Now it's over to @UKLabour Govt.⏳
🚨NEW: On Tuesday 11th February, I will introduce a Ten Minute Rule Bill seeking to make 'nurse' a protected title in UK law.
Pleased to have support from and build on the vital @protectnurse campaign @alisonleary1 @caspertown42. #ProtectNurse

@Leic_hospital it’s when you use services you see how incredibly inefficient they are. Just been to 3 locations in the same building re eye appts. No comms, sat 20mins in wrong place and now hoping someone sees us waiting on a chair cos I’m not allowed to press a buzzer 🤷🏻♂️

New monthly real-time suicide figures for England have been released by @OHID, taking us to March 2024.
They show no change over February & no return to the January peak that caused concern.
What should we conclude? 1/3
Inpatient suicide rates have fallen over the last decade, without transfer of risk to post-discharge period.
But the ⬇️ seems to have stalled. New prevention drive needed.
