Working on some e-learning for my new role as a nursing home nurse. I decided to go through the Epilepsy training today. Iโm so glad there is information about SUDEP. @SudepAction @SUDEPaware @epilepsyaction@epilepsysociety@RedcrierTrain
@picklescat72 @jack030894 @Nick_Dampier1@wesstreeting You can phone 111 for emergency dentistry. Iโve used 111 for residents in pain where I work and were seen quickly in the nursing home.
So #nursing Twitterverse /Xverse - Iโm playing with ideas of how I want to evolve with my career. I have a real passion for teaching and STNs. Those involved with teaching, can you please share pros and cons (if possible or in private message) please? And GO! โบ๏ธ

@BBCBreakfast , thank you so much for discussing Epilepsy on the program this morning. Itโs shocking and sad to hear the lack of healthcare professionals in epilepsy care however, itโs great that it is being highlighted.
Please be kind to your HCA's. They are a wrath of knowledge for you & your patients when you can't be with them due to other tasks. I've said it when I myself was a HCA, and now as a nurse I've had HCA's say it to me. Some nurses weren't hca's before they were a nurse & it shows.
Older people with unexplained fatigue or mental health problems should be offered a vitamin B12 test, according to latest @NICEComms guidance. This draft publication offers recommendations on how to diagnose B12 deficiency & which treatment option to use. https://t.co/FKzRTzTPm1
