Brilliant article by @a_mermi on the role of the performing arts in supporting the mental health and resilience of health care professionals. Something @perform4care and others have been working on for some time and that COVID-19 only made more apparent. https://t.co/CYn3RxupC2

[Performance for Care @perform4care]

Nursing students whose learning has been altered because of COVID-19 response arrangements and social

@perform4care @KarlTizzard Your phd is about theatre and nursing so it's research not distraction.

@JohnMcArts @perform4care
as you suggest it's important to recognize why healthcare professionals might 'lack' empathy and resilience - including the sort of working conditions outlines by Anne Laure Humbert

Professor Pam Smith references this wonderful book by a nurse/performance poet

@perform4care
is it the role of artists' to train and support healthcare workers? With a better resourced health service, perhaps this sort of project wouldn't happen

nurses are 'the best among us' and we still abandon them
