@SFHImprovement@ChloeMaltby_NHS@sambray29 It’s a real privilege to have our new discharge lounge. The team have done an outstanding job creating the best facility I’ve seen - 19 beds, 22chairs, infection control areas, will be open from 24h on Monday. It will improve safety across the whole UEC pathway.
@historyinmemes@BrianwDolan@PeteGordon68 great clip of Orville Rogers. Going to use it to show not all old people are frail and the power of mobility - he didn’t start running until he was 50.
Today the incredible @OHEAP_official team went above and beyond by dressing up as children's heroes as they worked on upgrading the fire alarms in the Holly Ward and Children's Unit! They even brought sweet treats for our young patients. You are real-life heroes! 🦸♂️🦸♀️
‘We are looking for women of all ages (minimum of 16 years old) that have had a coil/IUD procedure (insertion or removal) that they found distressing.’
