Dear #NHS Managers,
How are you holding up?
There’s so much you do
I drew just a few
How do you make it all fit?
Order, organise & sort it all out?
The booking, calling & planning
The juggling, creating & finding
You are the glue
We see what you do
And to us, you matter too

I know I bang on about this but I do think it explains some recent binfires. Obviously trusts have no influence on JD pay or front door demand but too many are focussing on the top without sorting issues at the bottom, trying to make staff happy when they don’t yet feel safe.
We ✨must✨ invest in the provision of skilled inpatient & community #AHP’s, experienced in empowering people to take risk positive decisions so they can return to (& stay!) the familiarity of home.
One assessment to plan discharge fails people in the last years of their life.
Join us on 12 December where we will be showcasing the brilliance of our support workforce. More details on our website>> https://t.co/w7SmVe1BFU

Remember that person who always brought bad vibes into the workplace? Don't be that person. #HappierNHS
Work is a big part of our lives. So let’s be aware of the vibe we each create in this space.
Really enjoyed working alongside my MDT colleagues, delivering teaching and facilitating this Frailty course! Some really positive discussions and recognition of the role we all have in improving care and enablement of our frail patients! 🩺👩🏻⚕️🦴🫁🩼🏥 @Medway_NHS_FT
This group of happy Nurses, Physio’s, OT’s, Therapy Assistants and CSW’s have just completed their internal Frailty Course facilitated and taught by the whole MDT. Great discussions and learning about the holistic factors needed to care for our frail patients 💪 @Medway_NHS_FT
