Do you know what a green dot on the side of a motorcycle helmet means?

You’ll find lifesaving rider information on a CRASHcard inside the padding of the helmet.

Unfortunately Covid is one of the reasons why my husband and I decided to leave working in the NHS and move to New Zealand, unfortunately leaving our teams understaffed. You can’t help but feel guilty even though you made the right decision for yourself.

2 years today since starting work as a qualified physio. Global pandemic, promotion to senior band 6, deputy team lead, hospitalised with covid and long covid fight ongoing. Proud to look back on what I have achieved so far!! #Physio #Reflect #LongCovid

We’ve lost half our hedgerows since 1945, but we can turn that around.

I’m joining @CPRE in calling on the government to plant and restore 1000s of miles of hedgerows every year, starting now. Add your name. https://t.co/m7g2fyoyty

I know it is only a minority that is behaving in this way. But it makes me worried for the safety of my friends and family. We achieved something amazing by reaching the final and nobody deserves abuse of any kind. Well done to our world class football team #ProudOfTheBoys 2/2

[Nicky @NickyGrayMackay]

After the football last night and the disgusting racist comments that have surfaced, I am ashamed to call myself English. After the progress we had made thanks to the #BlackLivesMatter movement we are showing the worst of ourselves to the rest of the world. 1/2

5 months on and I’m still struggling with #LongCovid. Many of the people I’ve met in support groups are also healthcare staff and most of us are doing the bare minimum to function. The impact on an already understaffed NHS ….. bleak!

[Long Covid UK @long_covid]

"A very significant proportion of #LongCovid patients are healthcare workers. These are educated, active, highly productive people who now can't function. The impact of that is going to be huge."

Awesome day for all staff at DCH seeing one of our own be discharged home. Keep fighting for recovery Jamie!!

[Dorset County Hospital NHS Foundation Trust @DCHFT]

An emotional day as one of our own was able to go home after almost six months of being treated for COVID-19. HCA Jamie has been treated on ICU and Moreton Ward. The teams who have cared for him and his colleagues were delighted to wish him well as he headed home with his family.

@physio_martin Well done! That sounds really interesting. Would love to read it! What were your findings?

[Nicky @NickyGrayMackay]

Twitter and physio friends - does anyone know of some private long covid treatment clinics? Ideally looking for some neuro OT/cognitive rehab. Thanks 😊 #LongCovid #Physio

Excellent @TheACPRC short course on Bronchiectasis yesterday and nice to see I was learning alongside some friends @CarylAPhysio @RobynStiger

Well done everyone. It is fabulous to see how patients benefit from Physiotherapy both in hospital and for ongoing rehab in the community. We are all in this together. Team NHS. @BelfastTrust
