What a fantastic few days at #rcmconf24 in Liverpool! Very honoured to have been able to share findings from my service evaluation into Digital Technology and the Midwife-Woman Relationship as the first Chief Midwife Fellow in @NHSGrampian. Hopefully this will spark curiosity! 🔥

More food for thought at #QualityEvent23 - Civility Saves Lives with Dr Chris Turner. Sure we've all witnessed micro-aggression & incivility, how to deal with it? It can be subtle & demoralising,we can all be kinder. @junebrown116 @NHSGrampian @civilitysaves
