A new article from me about #mentalhealth and the ever increasing medicalisation of all aspects of society. Credit to @JDaviesPhD and @ClinpsychLucy for their work over the years and given me faith to do an article about this. Thank you @NursingTimes
Are you a consultant nurse in mental health?
We have started a new WhatsApp group for the network. The group is for peer support and development of the network. If you would like to join, please DM us with your request. All consultant nurses welcome 🙂
EVENT: We are holding a Reducing Restrictive Practice Learning Event today alongside @InnovationNWC.
The event provides great opportunity for North West mental health wards to share ideas and gain inspiration from each other.

Well I had to teach in the dark today to try and make the room as cool as possible. Not too sure it made any difference in the heat. But everyone did amazing to keep focussed all day.
Thanks again to @WeAreLSCFT for having me

Very excited to be talking directly to government next month on shaping the future of #mentalhealth services and #socialprescribing we have the opportunity to shape something for the better let’s not waste it @wfpevents
The government and the unions are in cahoots. A small pay rise will be accepted but without additional funding to the #NHS. This means services will be cut to fund it. Then nurses and doctors will be blamed for services being cut.
@LuisaSophs Imagine one more answer “none of the above, this woman has internalised years of patriarchal systemic abuse and her suffering has been medicalised to reinforce these stereotypes”
@1973Jtizz Agreed. The problem with nursing is I’ve done the rounds with them all. However, RCN does look to have get itself more organised with new leadership after the last lot were forced out. So might go back.
