Turned up for more induction training this morning and was told it wouldn't be going ahead (some emergency took priority) so I went shopping instead and bought way too much stuff 🙈🙈

[Ellen Boyd @ellenboyd2]

Day 1 of induction at the new job it was bloody freezing but very interesting and looking forward to getting stuck in next week 🤗

Here is how you imagine the 150k lives lost to Covid.

It’s just taken me 10 mins to walk the half kilometre length of the national @CovidMemorialUK wall, directly opposite parliament.

Each heart represents one of those 150k lost, those families changed forever.

Please share 💔

A 1% pay-rise for all NHS nurses is ~£82.5m.

Government WASTED TWICE that amount (£155m) on a SINGLE botched PPE contract, given to a friend of Liz Truss.

Guess it’s who you know that matters more to this government, not what you do.

We’re heroes until we ask for a pay rise

Wednesday's budget is a chance to thank key workers, not by clapping, but by creating an economy that helps workers, their families and their communities to thrive.

@StNurseProject + the many different avenues within nursing and how there will always be new challenges and learning to do
- the toxic nature of a lot of nursing environments

[Ellen Boyd @ellenboyd2]

@AnnaJam85632075 @WeStudentNurse @StNurseProject You have to make sure you are ok I'm qualified and just spent the last 2 days at home because I couldn't get my car out my road you feel guilty but you have to remember you come first

[Ellen Boyd @ellenboyd2]

@thisladywill As a healthcare professional we are taught to use the words death/died so there's no ambiguous language particularly with children the implication that lost means they can be found and that creates issues I 100% think death should be talked about more in an open and honest way

[Ellen Boyd @ellenboyd2]

@Nurseinjustice @PracticePlusGrp @StNurseProject @RCNStudents I've just accepted a nursing role within prison should be starting in a few weeks I'm nervous but excited for a new challenge it'll definitely be interesting 🙈

@nursekelsey I am that hearing aid fairy 😂 I wear bilateral hearing aids myself so forever find myself helping others with theirs

[Ellen Boyd @ellenboyd2]

@chels_patient Babes you've always been insane 🤪🤪

[Ellen Boyd @ellenboyd2]

@Yorkshire_Nurse @WeStudentNurse @WeNurses @AiredaleNHSFT This is such a lovely idea 🥰🥰

[Dr Rachel Clarke @doctor_oxford]

When you say you don’t know who to believe on Covid, you’re treating the testimony of frontline NHS doctors and nurses like me as no more believable than anonymous Twitter trolls.

Can you imagine how that makes us feel?

We’re your NHS.

Please trust us 💙

@WeStudentNurse Im hearing impaired myself and wear bilateral hearing aids and although it would be great to teach BSL as part of the course there's already a lot of content and expecting even more is a lot of pressure but in my experience basic deaf awareness would go a hell of a long way 👌

[Ellen Boyd @ellenboyd2]

All NHS trusts summed up nicely 👌
