Warning: Miss one month’s council tax payment & it could ask you to pay the whole year bill within weeks. Council tax debt collection is far worse than finance firms. It’s destructive especially for those with mental health issues. My speech at @MMHPI campaign launch

We are absolutely thrilled and honoured to have been nominated and shortlisted for UHNM’s ‘Clinical Team of the Year’. Recognised for all the hard work and support given to patients over the last 12 months in North Staffordshire.
What a team⭐️
Good luck to all other nominees!
Yesterday we celebrated Nurses Day which is Sunday 12th May! Just a little thank you to show how appreciated you all are 👏❤️ #NursesDay2024#compassion#ThankYou
CPR is not a treatment for #ordinarydying. Every instance of futile CPR - which is what will happen if nobody has sorted out the protection of a DNACPR for someone whose life is coming to an end - is a tragedy. Please, doctors, nurses, patients, families - #havetheconversation.
Cliques divide people into insiders and outsiders. Healthy groups offer everyone a sense of belonging.
It's not enough to be polite. It's critical to convey that we value each member's contribution.
The foundation of respect is making sure others feel seen and heard.
I just popped to a supermarket. In the carpark, there were *three* separate homeless ‘camps’ housing 5 different people.
How is this ok in 2024 Britain?💔
I spoke to two of them. One lady told me her hubby had died & eventually she’d found herself on the street. She has a dog which she says is now her “protection” and she apparently can’t get a hostel place unless she gives it up & she can’t bring herself to do that.
Another guy told me he’d lost his job (he was a chef) and then things just declined for him. He too has a dog that he can’t give up, he said he loves her too much…so apparently he too can’t get a hostel place.
Today is #NationalPetDay and I’ve seen so many people proudly sharing pictures of their pets. It made me sad that loved (and possibly essential) pets can be the reason homeless people can also be declined the basics of a bed for the night 😔
More broadly than that, it makes me so sad to see so many folk on the streets💔
It's change over day! Welcome to Ward 7 and CCU 🥰
And a huge thank you to our amazing medical team for all your hard work the last 4 months 👏 #teamwork#juniordoctors#nursing
Thank you @Tesco Hibel Road for another very generous donation of toiletries for our patients and eggs for the staff ready for our annual hunt this weekend. It's much appreciated 😊
