This is outstanding from Rowena about the importance getting up, dressed and moving, especially while in hospital.

When you phone the care home to ask for their cut off time and they reply "they can come back whenever, it's their home". 🥰 Why are they not all this this, it would help free up so many beds!

[Portsmouth Hospitals University NHST @PHU_NHS]

PHU remains in critical incident as the hospital & ED are over full. Only attend the ED if you have a life-threatening injury or illness. You'll be redirected to an UTC or NHS 111 if you attend with a minor illness/injury. Use NHS 111 online or your local pharmacy over the BH.

[Portsmouth Hospitals University NHST @PHU_NHS]

Our hospital remains very busy and you can help by supporting us to get your loved to get home, if the decision has been made that they are ready to be discharged.

Visit our website for more information on how you can help them be #ReadyToGo

The conditions in which improvement work takes place is critical to the success

Busy, overworked, unsupported, unequipped, judged and silo working staff are not going to be able to do it #QITwitter

Brilliant day with @SHFT_transforms looking at rehab bed admission process. Key aim to minimise delay and failed transfers to improve care and patient experience. Great to have @SolentNHSTrust colleagues join us too! Exciting times ahead! #QI #collaborativeworking

[Dr Rachael Morris @two_docs]

Does anyone have a true shared CGA between acute, community, ambulance etc? Where it can be read and updated by teams other than the host organisation? #hospitalathome #frailty #GEM
