@RedPepperNutri @covid_rehab Interesting that large numbers of #patients currently report receiving letters discharging them from dietitian services without discussion or review. @headsmatter @NeuroAlliance @NHSEngland @s9tmt @StrokeInfo1 #COVID19

@GMNeuroAlliance @RedPepperNutri @headsmatter @NeuroAlliance @NHSEngland @s9tmt @StrokeInfo1 We maybe in crisis mode now, but the bigger issues are waiting to rear their head soon afterwards https://t.co/HYkaT6uYv5

[Stroke Information @StrokeInfo1]

@BelgianBenny @RedPepperNutri @GMNeuroAlliance @covid_rehab @headsmatter @NeuroAlliance @NHSEngland @s9tmt Maybe experienced stroke survivors should be consulted #justSaying

[GMNeuro @GMNeuroAlliance]

@RedPepperNutri @BelgianBenny @covid_rehab @headsmatter @NeuroAlliance @NHSEngland @s9tmt @StrokeInfo1 So we abandon sick vulnerable people already reliant on help to save others? A better plan is to provide continuity so that they too don’t end up in A&E. We completely appreciate you have families but so do carers & patients who never clock off don’t have PPE or a decent wage

[GMNeuro @GMNeuroAlliance]

@RedPepperNutri @BelgianBenny @covid_rehab @headsmatter @NeuroAlliance @NHSEngland @s9tmt @StrokeInfo1 GM wide and across departments no we won’t be recommending complaints but supporting people to challenge decisions and stay well

[Ben @BelgianBenny]

@GMNeuroAlliance @RedPepperNutri @covid_rehab @headsmatter @NeuroAlliance @NHSEngland @s9tmt @StrokeInfo1 I didn’t file a complaint... I just try to change this for the good. But I am only a little survivor, who doesn’t get heard a lot.

[GMNeuro @GMNeuroAlliance]

@BelgianBenny @RedPepperNutri @covid_rehab @headsmatter @NeuroAlliance @NHSEngland @s9tmt @StrokeInfo1 Complaints take too long and the process is designed to fail patients but you’re not alone and together we can fight bad service and delivery. We’re not asking for gold standard but we won’t accept bargain basement either. People deserve a quality of living even in a crisis.

[NICE @NICEComms]

NICE has published new rapid COVID-19 guidelines: https://t.co/Wr3TgajIpk

They cover the management of patients with severe asthma, pneumonia, rheumatological autoimmune, inflammatory and metabolic bone disorders and the management of COVID-19 symptoms in the community.

@Dave_Burns_ @s9tmt We’re clapping because we want you to know that we’re as angry and frustrated as you are at this @GOVUK shameful treatment of #healthcare #socialcare #keyworkers we want you to have what you need but those in power aren’t listening - yet #letusmakenoise @s9tmt @GMNeuroAlliance

This morning I told @BBCBreakfast about the importance of nursing and the protection we need to do our job . It was only a few weeks ago that Nursing was considered “ low skilled” by the government - now everyone can see how critical we are to society .#COVID19Pandemic

[Dr Martin Murphy @MartinMurphy001]

The WHO view of how long people remain contagious. Our advice in the UK is wrong and too short

[Bolton NHS Foundation Trust @boltonnhsft]

After seeing an idea from a doctor on Facebook Lucy Bates, Clinical Lead in Critical Care, decided to put out her own advert & donation box in her local Co-op for pairs of knitted hearts 💕 One heart is given to a patient in critical care & the other is given to a family member.

[Eileen Chubb @CompassnInCare]

This policy of barring the most vulnerable from hospital care, IS TRUE. we have received far too many reports confirming this. We will have #COVID19 cases in care homes, staff with no protective equipment, there can be only one outcome, suffering & death beyond comprehension

[headsmatter @headsmatter]

@FoxNikkiFox Lots of people reporting difficulties if they have #hiddendisabilities #ABI #LDs @GMNeuroAlliance @s9tmt

#Epilepsy #Coronavirus Please think of others, in times such as this. Keep in touch with your dear family and friends. Ring them up regularly. Where needed go to the shops for them.

[Epilepsy Society @epilepsysociety]

We're so delighted to announce from 6 April 2020 our Helpline opening hours will be extended to five days a week. You can learn more about our service here https://t.co/e39dV33Fi9 We second Richard in thanking everyone who donated and our mystery donor for making this possible 💜
