So…. I’m speaking for a tight, stirring, uplifting 18 minutes at our #TEDstyle event on the 12th. I’ve just shared the title but not the content ‘leadership, culture & language in social care’. What should I say 🤔. @AdamDPurnell@Justacarehomeg1@AlyMcKechnie@GaryHodge1968

Happy #InternationalWomensDay2023. The care sector is still predominantly a female workforce so please celebrate how great you are. (That's not to say that the men working in care aren't too! 😊)
Continuing to work with @ICSOneDevon and @DevonCC is vital, with @ProudtoCare doing a sterling job to highlight job vacancies.
You can hear me waffling on about this @bbc5live#WUTM at 0535. I even pause for breath occasionally. https://t.co/Wadczz8L4b
We don't value compassion and kindness enough in society. If we did, we might see that they are something that you can make a career out of. Celebrate the career, push for better wages, drive for recognition. Let's talk about care as a career in schools and colleges.
I am raising money for Thea's Kenya Trip 2024. We are trying to set up a link with Kenya to distribute unused mobility aids from Devon. Click to Donate: https://t.co/TklpUduN6w #GoFundMe
Such an important message so please take a moment to make yourself aware. Only this week our care staff sought medical attention for an individual with suspected sepsis (later confirmed). @devoncarehomes 💚💚
@CoxonGeorge This mindmap is still so relevant but I think huge strides have been made with ‘representatives - commentators not being near enough to ground level’. @devoncarehomes has provided a valuable platform for on the ground voices to be heard.
Dementia support - these are great tips, in fact many should be universal. Prof Tom Kitwood explained in ‘70’s that a significant part of distress associated with a Dementia is how healthy individuals interact with a person with Dementia. 50 yrs on, have we progressed that far?
This is linked to some of the conversation yesterday with @DevonCC CHF and @devoncarehomes when we discussed nutrition and hydration - and electrolytes. @Mark_J_Reed @PeninsulaCare1@courthousecare more to be discussed and researched! SO many rabbit holes on this!! Love it 😍
