Attending #SAPHNA24 Conference today, @JamieWaterall is absolutely right, school nurses are part of the solution to many of the problems we currently face.
But the profession needs more support, starting with an increased number of school nurses in the country.
On average, at least one child a month drowned at home in England. The report also highlighted that 2 out of 3 drownings that occurred at home did so in the bath, and that most of the children affected were aged under 5 years.

We continue to build our clinical governance team. As a Band 7 specialist Midwife, you will lead the QI improvements across perinatal services working with risk, education and digital midwife. A rare and fabulous opportunity to join us here in @nhslanarkshire.
Change takes two full leadership cycles. This election is crucial.
I'm standing in Scotland, with a proven record of leading change from the outside - as an ordinary member who simply wants better for nurses.
Imagine what I could do, if elected!
