@gemmamitchell92 @TheQNI I went straight into School Nursing from qualifying and although the service was happy to employ me, a lot of nurses in the team struggled my lack of acute experience. I think universities encourage community more and more, but staff attitudes also need to shift. #schoolnursing

[Miriam Duncan @slamduncs]

@mrsmkelly Booked myself on it. Thanks for letting me know! I’m really excited! #allourhealth

[Miriam Duncan @slamduncs]

In England, suicide is the most common cause of death for men aged 20-49. Every suicide is a tragedy. We want to do something to stop this: our target is to reduce suicides nationally by 10% by 2020/21. #WSPD18
