Today we're celebrating the vital role Operating Department Practitioners in supporting UHCW patients through every stage of their surgical journey. From anaesthesia to recovery, their skill, professionalism and teamwork make a real difference to patient care every day.

It's #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek! What actions can #TeamUHCW take to support good mental health? Since it is also the #NationalYearOfReading, we might have an idea or two to help...

Happy International Day of the Midwife! This year’s theme is #OneMillionMore. Research shows the world is facing a shortage of nearly one million midwives, leaving millions of women without access to the care they need before, during and after pregnancy. https://t.co/yIj1FgCRK0

Have a look at the summary of our contributions in the images in this thread. If you found yourself exclaiming "I didn't know the library did that!" perhaps it's time for us to meet and talk about how we can support your team? Get in touch: [email protected] #BetterNeverStops

[UHCW Knowledge and Library Services @UHCWLibrary]

"I didn't know the library did that!" is a common phrase we hear when we meet new users, so we've been excited to take part in the Staff Improvement Kaizen event this week, demonstrating how we work to support #TeamUHCW.

[UHCW Knowledge and Library Services @UHCWLibrary]

To showcase how we can improve the staff experience, we've framed our work using key elements of the NHS People Promise. We know that our resources and services help to deliver continuous learning, provide safe spaces, contribute to staff wellbeing & support inclusive services.

Here's the answers to our #WorldBookDay quiz! Unfortunately, no fully correct answers were submitted so we'll roll those goody bags on to another giveaway. Did any of these stump you? #NationalYearOfReading

We've had more logins to our #Elsevier subscriptions than anything else so far this year. Find @ClinicalKey in the Online Resources section of our website https://t.co/Ssj1k9vGlA - log in with @OpenAthens

We've got 3 library goodybags to give away to the first 3 correct entries. Only #TeamUHCW staff are eligible to win the prizes, but we'll gladly accept entries from other participants who we'll give a shout out to when we reveal the answers on Monday... Good luck!
