On International Nurses day, delighted that my specialist & advanced practice nurse colleagues, with @WeHSCPs, CHO, admin & medical support, shared significant progress on @slaintecare projects, impact on access & positive patient outcomes @DonnellyStephen #TUHworkingtogether
Good start to the weekend as #COVID19 hospital numbers are down to 208 & 51 in ICU. We could be on a good trend with the early benefits of the vaccines reducing the sickness levels for the most vulnerable. The light is shining a little brighter for now. @HSELive
Some continued signs of encouragement this week. Reducing cases, positivity rates & close contacts. But hospital cases & ICU aren't reducing yet. So please let's keep our guard & resiliance for the coming weeks as we aim to avoid the trend in Eurpope & the UK. @HSELive#COVID19
Updating staff info wall in the COVID-19 assessment centre . Recent results from the Covid-19 pulse survey. We thought that the most important things were communication and involvement in decisions making. We need to keep on #engaginghealthstaff tirelessly!

Hospitals, testing & tracing systems in many EU countries are under severe strain today. Many have greater capacity than our hospitals for beds & ICU. I know its hard on many, but what we continue to do is protecting us to date from ending up in the same place. @HSELive#COVID19
Today & for next 2 weeks, ask ourselves, who do we really need to meet? Who can we defer inviting to our home? If you casually meet someone, avoid that desire to head for a chat. Take a step back.Tough, yes. But it's avoiding more people hospitalised or in ICU. @HSELive#COVID19
