long term nhs nurse still dabbling away but sad at leadership too much too poor

@DonnaLouise1212 Don’t be surprised my mum had to pay full fees despite her and dad working over 50 years each (mum was a nurse) using up all their equity. There were people in the same unit who had only been in the country for about 2 years who didn’t pay a penny (and the family kept moaning)

@BBCNorfolk Easy for Boswell in his golden triangle house just a walk to his place of work and no young kids He selfishly does not care/understand the transport challenges meaning big vehicles and emergency services have to drive through villages such as ringland/costessey

[phill @phill55846180]

@ZoeBillingham Well I’m sorry but Marie Gabriel was not inspiring at nsft She presided over failure and made very poor senior appointments; it’s a clear political award that most people can see through

[phill @phill55846180]

@ProfLAppleby Louis Appleby you are largely correct it would be good if these discussions were part of nurses training rather than the box ticking drivel we are delivering/receiving

[phill @phill55846180]

@DBDouble @implausibleblog Sadly Duncan many do but for wrong reasons; many agency staff are desperate for nhs contracts and will openly state v generous T&Cs on offer

[phill @phill55846180]

@NSFTCrisis Think the issue here is partly nsft have used the older persons beds for younger adults ; previous older persons leaders advocated against this but they have left (been hounded out) leaving inexperienced leaders who have no real interest in older people) but interest in the grade

[phill @phill55846180]

@DBDouble Good to hear Duncan some of the behaviours from the CEO/COO and head of governance were poor

[phill @phill55846180]

@DBDouble Your welcome

[phill @phill55846180]

@UB40 Shame you pulled out at last minute today. Disgraceful given everyone had turned up after you had cancelled but they were not informed on entry. Both attendees are old fans and both work as nurses in nhs Safe to say they are not happy and your credibility has sunk

[phill @phill55846180]

@DBDouble @NSFTdeaths @NSFTtweets @NSFTCrisis Duncan. Retaining experienced staff who are leaving/have left would have been a start. Listening to the exit interviews. Sadly nsft have overpromoted people who ‘fit in’ and this impacts on shop floor staff who are not stupid. Not recruiting overseas staff who are not MH trained!

[phill @phill55846180]

@DBDouble Think mind need to sort out their own bullying culture first Duncan. It’s appalling and mid managers are terrified. They also keep taking on new projects when they haven’t finished last ones. Sadly they also lie to public. Hardly good for mental health

[phill @phill55846180]

@DBDouble @NSFTtweets @ZoeBillingham @CathByford Duncan. They won’t as it will evidence the service has been poor for ages and senior leaders have defended it publicly: it’s about face saving not openness

[phill @phill55846180]

@DBDouble @NSFTtweets Also it is fair to say agency staff are often made scapegoats

[phill @phill55846180]

@DBDouble @NSFTtweets Duncan I would be interested to see how many hours the 2 staff had worked in the weeks before. Many bank and agency staff work excessive hours with no ability of organisations to monitor. Essentially agency staff are sub sub contracted

[phill @phill55846180]

@nikkijfox It’s not just resources. There is so much waste. Personally, I’m sick of hearing SR being termed kind. He was only kind of you agreed with him. Just like the former Cheif Nurse under their leadership older persons services has become toxic and good staff gone/going

[phill @phill55846180]

@NSFTCrisis TBF Cath Byford is good and actually gets the local picture. It’s just a shame under SR and especially DH so many good older staff have left as they didn’t fit the cheerleaders model. Let alone have professional integrity

[phill @phill55846180]

@DBDouble @HBowdenJonesOBE @TheLancetPsych Duncan. Sadly more jobs for girls and boys which ultimately means nothing on shop floor mental or physical health care provision; it’s just a rotating list of names moving from roles/posts that mean nor deliver anything

[phill @phill55846180]

@drsaustun Maybe you were not datix’ed but the patient safety issue was

[phill @phill55846180]

@NSFTCrisis @ZoeBillingham @NSFTtweets Your career depended on how you got on with certain senior staff even tho they never actually worked with you
