I know opinions are split on this but I can, in all conscience, not sign this. #NoDeal would be a disaster, #MaysDeal a disaster, #PeoplesVote is our best option.

Useful slide from ⁦@nmcnews⁩ on subtle differences between Nurse and Nursing Associate roles. Nurses to lead, evaluate and coordinate care. Nursing associates to provide, monitor and contribute to care

Great question from representative of @TizardCentre to @cj_dinenage on how will national training program for healthcare workers on learning disabilities be #coproduced #APPGLD

[Andy Ambler @ambler_andy]

“Less than 6% of people with a learning disability are in paid employment” we have to improve that to help improve health outcomes! #APPGLD

[Andy Ambler @ambler_andy]

@heslop_pauline just told #APPGLD that health and social care need to look at how we can combine training programmes to help share best practice across both sectors
