This #WorldCancerDay, 94 year old Ken talks about his experience of being treated for oesophageal cancer at our new hospital in Liverpool.
"It's not been easy, but it's been worthwhile"
Thank you for sharing your story Ken
So true. Proud of all the incredible dietitians across the UK playing their part. Thank you for all you do and for the role you play as well as all @NHSuk staff. Without everyone playing their role the NHS wouldn’t be what it is. ❤️
First day at the new hospital done. ❤️ Masks still in full force. Hoping my lungs will be stronger with all the stairs and mask wearing. 😷 #new#hospital#COVIDー19#mask
Our #Dietitians support patients who may be having difficulty eating and will sometimes advise feeding through a gastrostomy or nasogastric tube. During #Coronavirus the team have reduced the length of stay for tube placement by five days.

It's the start of #DietitiansWeek and we're celebrating with our #Dietitian Team being today’s Hidden Hospital Heroes! They have been working extremely hard to reduce our patients' stay in hospital.

"I thought am I alive? Am I dead? I was clearly alive but I had this fifteen inch tube down my throat and I couldn't talk."
David Hunt was treated in the same intensive care unit as the PM after contracting #coronavirus.

@Merseytravel I’ve seen the new bus and train timetables and I’m wondering how key workers are meant to get from Liverpool to work in Wirral hospitals by 8oclock as no buses or trains are leaving before 7? #COVIDー19#keyworker
Please consider all this and those around you before heading out on a non essential trip and when you do follow advice and socially distance. No one wants this to escalate further than it needs to.
