Passionate about the health needs of people with learning disabilities. Proud to work in the NHS.Enjoy live music, singing, travelling, the ocean and good food.

[Chris Walker @RCNi_Christine]

Nearly a third of English NHS trusts do not have a learning disability liaison service employing a registered learning disability nurse as our #FOI investigation found @RCNi_Anita. Reverse this workforce gap and inequality and outcomes might just improve.

The NHS Long term plan highlights the need to double RNLD workforce to reduce inequalities & premature deaths.
@NandM_Keele have withdrawn their Learning Disability Nurse programme.

BREAKING

TORY govt breaks the law AGAIN as @libertyhq WINS their case

Last yr Suella Braverman changed definition of “serious disruption” to mean “more than minor” giving police almost unlimited powers to shut down protests

Today, Court has said it was UNLAWFUL
Liberty 👏🏼

Happy International Nurses Day to all the amazing Nurses out there. 😍

The biggest outbreak of whooping cough is being seen in the UK for many years, with @UKHSA now reporting five deaths of babies from the infection in England between January and March. This article outlines what children's nurses should look out for.

[Neena Jha @DrNeenaJha]

Five babies have lost their life in 3 months due to whooping cough

The saddest thing is that these deaths were fully preventable 😞

The whooping cough (pertussis) vaccine for:
💉PREGNANT women b/w 20-32 weeks
💉 BABIES at 8, 12 & 16 weeks

Vaccines are SAFE & LIFE SAVING!

Medical researchers now have more evidence linking infection w/ Helicobacter pylori—a stomach bacterium—to colorectal cancer. Already a causative factor in gastric cancer, H. pylori upped the risk of colorectal cancer by 18% & increased mortality by 12% https://t.co/Nou8J1A9dU

@VickiRNLD @Southern_NHSFT @RoyalSurrey Thank you for inviting me to present today and spread the word about H Pylori detection. 😃

[Marie Curie @mariecurieuk]

Join us on Sunday 3 March for Marie Curie’s Day of Reflection, a moment to remember everyone who died during the pandemic. 💛

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Aleksey Navalny was a fearless advocate for his beliefs who died unbroken by the tyranny he opposed. He fought corruption, inspired millions and never wavered in his insistence on free expression, the rule of law, and a Russia that is accountable to the people and not a dictator. He died in unyielding defense of his vision of a better future for his country - a vision, and a courageous example, that will never die.

[Giorgi Revishvili @revishvilig]

Navalny's wife, Yulia Navalnaya at the Munich Security Conference (w/ ENG translation):
"And I want to call on the entire world community, everyone in this room, people all over the world, so that we unite together and defeat this evil, defeat the horrific regime that is now in Russia. Both this regime and Vladimir Putin must bear personal responsibility for the terrible things that they are doing to my country, to our country Russia in recent years.”

[Clare Roberts @clare_RNLD]

@CoatesMarta Love these guys. I follow them on Facebook. My boys are in a street dance group so enjoy watching their videos too.

[Irene Tuffrey-Wijne @TuffreyWijne]

It’s beyond shocking that this is still happening. Not even headline news. So many similar devastating stories over the years, its just horrific. No wonder people with learning disabilities called 2022 #leder the “spot the difference” report https://t.co/QzyXck6tpP

[Clare Roberts @clare_RNLD]

Another serious health condition linked to H. Pylori. More awareness is needed amongst professionals and the public. Links were also made to colorectal cancer last year.

In the world right now, there are about 130,000 people starving says @WFP but in Gaza there is 4 times more at over 500,000

@amydawks1 Sorry only just spotted this. I think the slides might be sent out in the New Year by NHS England but if not you can DM me your email on here and I will send the presentation over. 😀
