Feeling proud!🌱We picked our first courgette, and we’ve even spotted a little tomato 🍅😍
Who can remember the first pics we posted of our garden patch?! It’s come a long way in just a month - shoutout to play leader Lucy for keeping up the watering 💦

Some new additions to the Ward walls this week!😍A place for our lovely thankyou cards and pictures & space to let colleagues know they’re appreciated🤗 It’s important to remember kindness and gratitude in this tough time, we are grateful to have a team who are sharing the love❤️

We are really focused on maintaining the wellbeing of our team 🧘🏻‍♀️Our new way of encouraging this is with the 10:10:10 theory🥰 We have posters up to encourage everyone to use this technique to rationalise worries & manage feelings 🤗
Why not try this technique in your daily life!

This week we have started our “Focus on us” initiative - to make sure we are looking after ourselves 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦
We will be doing activities and competitions, to keep our team spirit strong 💪🏻❤️
Firstly, we have “guess who”! Can you spot any of our nurses?👀

[Ward L30 @WardL30]

Here is our Perfect Ward wall 😁
We’re always striving to be the best we can be for our patients - and this new initiative is a way to show us where we can do better and what we’re doing great at, as well as giving us a chance to think of our own ideas to make our ward perfect✅

[Ward L30 @WardL30]

Today we have implemented our new time & money saving emergency boxes! 📦🚨
They keep everything we need for emergencies in one place, whilst also keeping them clean and sealed away to prevent waste caused by throwing away items after a patient stays in a room!♻️
