We’re one of four UK sites recruiting patients to take part in a ground-breaking international trial for treating prostate cancer.

It's investigating whether Aquablation, a therapy using robotics, AI and real-time imaging, compares favourably to traditional surgery.

We’ve been named the fourth busiest hospital for aortic surgery in England with some of the best patient outcomes in the National Vascular Registry Report.

Aortic surgery is a procedure to repair the aorta, the body's largest artery, to fix problems like aneurysms.

Norovirus is a stomach bug that causes vomiting and diarrhoea. You can usually treat yourself or your child at home with rest and plenty of fluids.

Please do not visit the hospital until you've not been sick or had diarrhoea for at least 2 days.

[Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals @NNUH]

If you’re feeling unwell and suspect you have a virus, stay at home to stop it spreading it to others.

If you need advice, NHS 111 can tell you what to do next.

@RoyLilley What interests me, is that all this commentating about how poor the handling was and damaging this has been to the NHS - who’s listening? Certainly not the people who should be. And most importantly, what can we do about that?

[Karen Hindle @kmhindle]

@NHSEngland Perhaps next year a collaboration between NHS and RBL to provide an enamel poppy pin with the NHS lozenge?

[Karen Hindle @kmhindle]

Not before time. Good news going forward

Menopause will be part of routine NHS health checks for the first time.

By tailoring checks to include questions around menopause, we hope more women will get the support they need to manage their symptoms.

Incredible. And so good to show this footage

Watch as a donor heart is brought in to @RoyalPapworth - whilst it's still beating!

The Organ Care System reanimates the heart outside of the body, keeping it beating and ensuring it remains healthy while in transit to the hospital, ready for transplant.

@RoyLilley @nhse Also upsetting for organisations who are partway through this process
