My daughter, student paramedic was on this ambulance today. So sad that experiencing this is part of learning to be a paramedic today.

Working in the vaccine hub @WalsallHcareNHS with an amazing team of nurses, a physio, pharmacists, HCAs, marshall’s and cleaners who are working hard so we can give out as many vaccines as possible #COVIDVaccination #MDTeffort #walsallandproud @DarenFradgley @AnnMarieRiley10 ❤️

[Ben Diamond @Ben_Diamond_]

Fantastic to have the vaccine here, and thanks for the incredible work that everybody has done to enable vaccinations to start today. Well done everybody.

ICU Senior Sister Ly was accompanied by a round of applause, smiles and the odd tear today when she became the first member of staff to have her Covid-19 vaccination at Walsall Manor Hospital #WalsallandProud 1/4

Great conversation on 'Diversify' by @junesarpong with colleagues @WalsallHcareNHS. Any colleagues that question the need for Black History Month should join us in the next discussion.

Today in 2005 Rosa Parks died. Let’s celebrate the strength that it took her to say no when told to give up her seat for a white person on a bus in 1955. Let more people have the strength to say no to racism.

@yvonnecoghill1 @LewisHamilton @JohnBrouder @wmakala Maybe his achievements sit way above our desperately outdated honours system that recognises achievements for the empire. I doubt he would be comfortable as a knight of the British empire.

[David Lammy @DavidLammy]

Black history is British history.

It must be taught in our schools so it is understood in our society.

And the health inequality gap widens a little further...

[Polly Toynbee @pollytoynbee]

Eton Head confirms to me that every pupil had a Covid test on arriving at school. Imagine if every child and teacher in the country had access to those private tests. Instead growing numbers stuck at home for lack of a test..

[Ben Diamond @Ben_Diamond_]

Well done everybody, fabulous work.

[Daren Fradgley @DarenFradgley]

So we are on our way! Final go live check point passed and our migration to @EprJourney has begun @WalsallHcareNHS Looking forward to supporting all our teams over this weekend and next week on our exciting journey. Thanks to digital team for phase 1 of migration.

White colleagues: if you're outraged that our colleagues continue to face structural racism and want to develop as an anti-racist, this might be a place to start

[NHS England @NHSEngland]

Communicating while wearing a face mask can be difficult, and even more so if your patient is deaf or hard of hearing. @SECAmbulance Paramedic @SECAmb_Danny shares an excellent way to make sure you can communicate effectively with patients, while keeping them protected. 😷 🚑

This is rather good in some ways

[liz gaulton @GaultonLiz]

Took a few hours off from Test & Trace this morning to talk about Covid in relation to inequalities, so very important. Thanks to @LGAcomms for the opportunity and to @TheKingsFund for the population health model that is serving us well @coventrycc
