@alisonleary1 @tracey_gunter @KateBurkeNHS Yes they do but they don't have national educational competencies saying they have to do a recognised post graduate qualification like in critical care, or national standards stating 50% of nurses on those wards possess said qualification.

@NursingTimes @LeedsHospitals @NHS_HealthEdEng Congratulations @EsterJamera I cannot think of a more deserving winner. Proud to work with you.

[Cat Balcombe @BalcoCat]

@joelycett Surely it would be better to donate to a good cause?

[Cat Balcombe @BalcoCat]

Reflecting on my previous life. Many lives saved and memories of those we lost.

@dzrichar @RoryStewartUK @RestIsPolitics Totally agree, it's disgraceful

[Count Binface @CountBinface]

If Matt Hancock would rather go on I'm A Celebrity than serve his constituents while being paid lots of money to be an MP, he should face an immediate by-election. Against me. RT if you agree.

[Cat Balcombe @BalcoCat]

Seriously this is disgusting. We cannot take this government seriously. Clearly no responsibility for his role in government. But why would I expect anything better
