Such a pleasure to be on @BBCDerby for NHS day to talk about @UHDBTrust @Pulvertafthands and their amazing treatment that saved my career. It was emotional and a lovely surprise seeing my surgeon Jill again after so many years 🥰

🏥 Our A&Es are very busy today - and while our dedicated teams are working hard to prioritise care for patients who are seriously unwell, anyone attending A&E with a minor illness or injury is likely to experience a long wait. (1/3)

[University Hospitals of Derby and Burton NHS FT @UHDBTrust]

If you do need to come to A&E, please consider how many people attend with you. We have limited space in our emergency departments, and patient seating must be prioritised - so visitors may be asked to make room for patients. 🪑 (3/4)
