Erskine Edinburgh residents John and Yvonne recently paid a visit to Bird Gardens Scotland, allowing them to get right into nature and meet all manner of birds, including flamingos ����
Pat and Tam, two of our Erskine Edinburgh residents, recently enjoyed a trip to Edinburgh Castle with some of our care team. It was a particularly special trip for Tam, who previously worked at the castle during his time serving with The Royal Scots 🏴����
Today I attended a Hustings at RCN Scotland’s HQ. Disappointed that the specialism of care home nursing was not mentioned.
How do we remove barriers and stereotypes if our own Government representatives do not recognise the value of social care nursing?
