I am so fortunate to have the opportunity to work alongside our Chief Nurse @CatherinePelley MBE, especially the last 1.5 yrs when so much of her focus has been to keep us all at @NHSHomerton , staff & patients, as safe as possible. Congratulations CP!
First full week of 2021 has had it all - huge concern associated with highest number of Covid patients we have seen in the hospital to date, high emotions and massive pride associated with the staff vaccination programme kick off and then there was this....@NHSHomerton
A privilege and a pleasure for @CatherinePelley and five members of @NHSHomerton staff to talk to HRH The Duke of Cambridge and update him on the massive challenges faced by our hospital and the NHS in dealing with this second wave of the coronavirus pandemic.
Providing support for NHS staff at such a challenging time is essential.
Funds from @NHSCharities - of which The Duke and Duchess are Patrons - have paid for breakfast boxes sent to hospital staff, and a new break out room for A&E staff. Watch full: https://t.co/OHnJDctpwC
We are so thankful for the work of our incredible NHS staff, at such a challenging time 💙
Prince William spoke to staff from Homerton University Hospital in London to hear about their experiences in recent weeks, and to offer his thanks for their continued efforts.

Unexpected & absolutely honoured to be 1st, from @CatherinePelley herself!
So many people have worked so hard in the trust & beyond, including Prof Sarah Gilbert & all @JennerInstitute
THANK-YOU🙏
A really really positive moment for all at @NHSHomerton -staff vaccinations are here! I have spoken to @CatherinePelley and she really did have tears of joy and relief. Thank you to all prescribers, vaccinators and the administrative team - it is buzzing down there. @DrFarebro
Covid patients in the @NHSHomerton today are even higher - over 200, 48% less than 65 yrs old. Our amazing staff are working incredibly hard, getting so stretched in looking after very sick patients. Please comply with the Covid restrictions. @hackneycitizen@hackneycouncil
Excellent thread about the pressures our colleagues are seeing at @NHSBartsHealth with similar themes being seen at @NHSHomerton. Our staff are stretched on all sites across north east London. Please comply with Covid restrictions #StayHomeStaySafe
Reading tweets & feeling sad for those feeling anxious to return to school & sharing public stories of confirmed, tragic cases of students passing to adults & vice versa. My school has not had a SINGLE case transferred on site, despite being in Tier 3 with over 1,000 students.
