@BeckyD_physio It’s been so interesting on ICU, you can spend a whole session thinking the patient hasn’t heard anything and then you ask them to squeeze your hand and they do it! So it’s so true, the importance of communicating :)

Our fabulous Rotational Physio's rotate in a few days - we will miss them hugely but the goodies ease the blow a bit! Thank you @Physio_RachelO it's been a joy having you on the team ❤️

As difficult and stressful as 2020 has been, being on the frontline of COVID-19, it has made it clear to me that although each service has their own specialities that make them important, what’s more important is how much support has been shared between teams (continued below...)

What a year 2020 has been for everyone! As an OT working within the @SwbMedTherapy team, I feel so grateful to work for such a fantastic and supportive team, as difficult as work can be, it is always a pleasure to come and work along side my work family (continued below...)

[Rachel Overy @Physio_RachelO]

What strange and tough times but at least I have the best housemate I could ask for to be isolating with over Xmas ❤️ Merry Christmas everyone 🎄I hope that everyone is ok #thankyouNHS 💙

[Ellen Bannister @bannister_ellen]

I didn’t think I would be spending Christmas this year COVID-19 positive and in isolation after an outbreak on the wards ~ guess it’s the inevitable way to spend Christmas 2020 as an NHS worker! Thank you to everyone for all the support 💛 #COVID19 #NHS

Happy 1st of December!! We celebrated with Christmas socks and homemade Christmas treats by our very own TA, Liam’s Nana Sue! After all of the challenges of 2020, December is a perfect month to celebrate everyone’s hard work and dedication 🎉 @ibedsSWBH @icares_SWBH @SWBQuality
