Being admitted as an in-patient on a neuro ward for the next week to check my seizures out on EEG monitors. I’m so nervous, normally my admissions are scary and last minute but this time I’ve planned and packed ahead 🥲💪🏼📚

So @Beyonce used the word 'spaz' in her new song Heated. Feels like a slap in the face to me, the disabled community & the progress we tried to make with Lizzo. Guess I'll just keep telling the whole industry to 'do better' until ableist slurs disappear from music 💔

How can my office space have held so many toys and resources! I need to sort soo much stuff (after a long hospital appointment and an early night)

1/2 Today was my last day working with my amazing team; I’ve made the hardest decision ever to prioritise my kidneys and overall health and to look after myself for a while… I’ve never been so emotional😢 this is not goodbye

[Imogen SLT🌼 @imogenthe]

2/2 forever grateful to everyone I’ve had the pleasure of working with in my first job, I’ve met so many amazing young people, their parents, support staff and of course professionals. Thank you all ❤️

We are seeing the highest % of AHP's leaving the NHS since 2014... with a peak in the first 0-2 years after starting.
What simple things can we put into place now to work to reduce this? #AHP #preceptorship #foundation #support

So my family where watching the new Harvey Price documentary and screamed “Imogen look”. I dropped my garlic bread and ran in to see that Speech and Language therapists are being represented so beautifully on tv!

@Clgslt Proud of my northern accent and wish I was at uni when I used to try and sound more southern, with hopes that others might understand me more and take me seriously (my university was 5hrs south)
