Now this is newsworthy...the real behind the scenes nurse experience. A Tasmanian Nurse just private messaged me their experience working in the ED today where those kids ended up. Read the original post here: https://t.co/YvQDDTtxPA
Take a moment to lend thoughts to our healthcare workers and emergency services colleagues in Tasmania. Today they were dealt something unspeakable that'll profoundly impact on the tight knit community & tonight on nightshift, a new team will be ready to do it all again. RIP

Feel brave marching through streets or proud of yourself protesting with chairs in the streets due to no lunchroom?
If only you could shadow a nurse in a COVID ward, ED or ICU for 1 single hour, let alone more than a year.
Then you'll realise what brave and proud looks like.
Please RT! Our latest #podcast has just been released! We speak to Jackson Heilberg, founder of @thenursebreak, about how vital it is that #nurses, #midwives and #students access support whenever they need it. Happy listening!
