Great to see the team (driven by @ShelleytheNurse I suspect) celebrating #NursesDay ! Need to recognise how important the people doing these roles are

Thanks: Soton LD Carers & Carers Steering Groups, @UHSFT @SolentNHSTrust @MountbattenHamp, Social Prescribers & @MB_Healthcare for an insightful view of carers experiences & QI. Carers telling us they need joined up services, universal passports & easier access to assessments.

[Matthew Richardson @ipcnurse]

Incredibly productive QI session in Southampton today looking at services for unpaid carers @HIOW_ICS @SouthamptonCC Did you know unpaid carers have a life expectancy 6 years less than non-carers? Working together to join up care @HIOW_CNO

@BugsIves @emmaabdulaal @HIOW_ICS You'd be very welcome @BugsIves, come and meet the wonderful Southampton Place Quality & CHC team.

@CarterSBethany Congratulations Beth, a huge loss to the world of IPC but a gain to F2SU. Best wishes in your new pathway.

[Matthew Richardson @ipcnurse]

Fantastic evening at the Hampshire Care Association annual awards, celebrating wonderful individuals & teams dedicated to caring. Congrats to all the finalists. @HIOW_ICS

@DPJHodges Are you doing SA is so similar to the UK that all data is automatically transferable? Av. Age half of UK, vaccination rate <30% of population, totally different health care system. Omicron still had the potential to dessimate the NHS with staff shortages & attendances.

[Matthew Richardson @ipcnurse]

There are plenty of opportunities in HIOW to get vaccinated... protect yourself and those around you at Christmas. https://t.co/8XgLoNx5ca

@mallondavid1 It takes 3-4 years to train a nurse, similar for AHP, 5-7 years for doctors. You do the math.

[Matthew Richardson @ipcnurse]

@DebWaines @Lubilu44 @dalv_135 @leelizard4 @georgegalloway That's because PCR detects the presence of DNA/RNA but can't tell whether it's viable or not. However, in the presence of symptoms this is kind of irrelevant. You seem to be implying it's not a sensitive test which is incorrect.

[Matthew Richardson @ipcnurse]

Please get vaccinated... it's your best chance of protecting yourself, others and Christmas. It's quick & safe & our vaccination teams are fantastic. Walk in, no appointments needed.

[Southampton Primary Care Ltd @so_pcl]

Walk- in covid boosters available today until 2pm at St Peter's Surgery, 49 Portsmouth Road, Southampton SO19 9RL. No appointment needed, age 18+. We have plenty of vaccine, vaccinators, and the best volunteers waiting for you to #getboosted
