These reports are always a tough read. So sad to see how many deaths were avoidable - 49%. We need to continue to raise awareness, educate others and challenge the health inequalities we continue to see so regularly #LeDeR@HWHCT_LD
Nursing pay has been held below inflation for years and the #CostOfLiving crisis has only worsened the impact of longstanding low pay. #FairPayForNursing is critical for the profession and the public's safety - RT if you agree that the upcoming NHS pay award must address this.
Fabulous day doing our Rebound Refresher course today. Lots of new skills learnt, hoping we can re-start our Rebound Sessions soon…endless physical, emotional and educational benefits
Let’s get #ScrapNHSBill to number 1 on the UK twitter trends. Let’s make sure everybody understands what MPs will be voting on tomorrow.
The Health and Care Bill will accelerate NHS privatisation. Patients will suffer if this Bill goes through.

Congratulations to our physio tech Sharon who smashed her race this weekend at the British Canoeing Marathon Championships. She won her category and is now the Masters National Champion. So proud of her achievement! Well done Sharon! 🎉🎊🙌@HWHCT_NHS@BritishCanoeing
I think this needs to be seen, I think every LD nurse I have the pleasure in knowing has heard or been told that we are not proper nurses at some point in their career.
Well here's a reminder to all, that we are fabulous nurses.xx
Spoke to a young lady a few days ago who wanted to be an LD nurse but others were trying to put her off. I told her it’s the best job and to go for it. For too long our nursing branch has been devalued by others in the profession. This has to change!
Certificates sent out today to all those who contributed to our Art-a-thon event for #LDweek21 we look forward to displaying the canvases in our office to remind us of a fantastic day #positivity#proud
