Thank you Jess and everyone at FNF, it has been lovely to meet such a wonderful group of students, stakeholders and FNF staff 😀

[Frimley Integrated Care System Student Council @FICSStu_Council]

It was truly incredible day :)

[Rachel Connolly @Rachel_Rags]

@KarolinaBielin2 writes so beautifully about #FNFStudents day and captures so well how inspiring it was to hear the individual nursing journeys from so many professionals 😊

[Florence Nightingale Foundation @FNightingaleF]

📣 Read our new #blog from @KarolinaBielin2. Karolina is a member of @FNFFrimley and in her blog, she talks about her recent attendance at #FNFStudents Day + the Florence Nightingale Commemoration Service.

I happily called into one of my favourite places on my way home (National Gallery), the words beside Van Gogh's 🌻 painting seemed poignant - yellow symbolising "hope & friendship", as the #FNFStudents I've met inspire with their friendship & hope to improve student experiences

[Rachel Connolly @Rachel_Rags]

A really interesting and thought-provoking Regional #FNFStudents meeting. Thank you to @JessLSainsbury for all the thought put into the event. Great opportunity to catch up with everyone particularly our @FNFFrimley student council @Eleanor_FNF @KarolinaBielin2 @STNJossy_ICSrep

[Rachel Connolly @Rachel_Rags]

Excited to catchup with #Fnfstudents and stakeholders at the regional meeting today - just passed Florence on my walk here @FNFFrimley @FNightingaleF

[Rachel Connolly @Rachel_Rags]

Fab afternoon catching up and filming with @FNFFrimley

[Rachel Connolly @Rachel_Rags]

@KarolinaBielin2 @vlpear Thank you Karolina for being so supportive always 😊

[Rachel Connolly @Rachel_Rags]

@AnyaTerry1 Thank you Anya 😊

[Rachel Connolly @Rachel_Rags]

🥳Good luck to all the amazing students today at #SNTA particularly excited for @KarolinaBielin2 from @FNFFrimley for all the amazing work she does in supporting other students and shining a light on positive support from her NHS colleagues at @FrimleyHealth #FNFStudents

[Frimley Integrated Care System Student Council @FICSStu_Council]

We wish good luck to all finalist of #SNTA and we keep our fingers crossed for @KarolinaBielin2!🤞🤞🤞

[Rachel Connolly @Rachel_Rags]

This is so thoughtful and I imagine helped make all those students feel immediately welcomed on Day 1 😀

[Katie Webb @KatieWebb21]

What a great way to welcome students to their new placement area ❤️

[Rachel Connolly @Rachel_Rags]

@NurseStandard This idea was raised recently to me by a fellow student-anything that can support staff is positive, but the value to students is particularly relevant given the fulltime & unpaid hours worked on placements which limits ability to earn to financially support themselves/family.

[Rachel Connolly @Rachel_Rags]

@nursingasgabs Get well soon Gabs, thinking if you lots 😊

[Rachel Connolly @Rachel_Rags]

@Eleanor_FNF what a fantastic piece of honest & courageous writing. I think when HCPs share their lived experiences or use them to improve patient care it makes for a kinder healthcare service. Let's hope hostile or judgemental responses from others become a thing of the past 😊

[Rachel Connolly @Rachel_Rags]

I have increasingly become aware of the important work (what is now) @NHSE_WTE do to support student nurses-recently learning via @FNightingaleF about the RePAIR work @KatieWebb21
& @marycjenkins1 have undertaken to understand the financial hardship for student nurses. Thank you

[Jess Sainsbury RN 💙 @JessLSainsbury]

I'd personally like to mark today with a #ThankYouHEE thread as without what is now @NHSE_WTE, my nursing journey would be very different indeed 🤍 #HEE10 🧵👇1/7

[Rachel Connolly @Rachel_Rags]

Last week on placement I was fortunate to spend time with a Dementia Associate Practitioner, part of Frimley's @dementiasquad - As a student nurse it is fantastic when inspirational staff share their knowledge so that we can best support patients and their families. Thank you 😀

[Rachel Connolly @Rachel_Rags]

Thank you @JessLSainsbury and all at FNF for everything you do to support student nurses and AHPs. Jess’s latest blog shines a light on how FNF are helping students’ voices be heard: https://t.co/YMt0xo5Dyg
