@howardbakescake Sorry to read this Becky. All good experience so just keep moving forward and you will get to where you are supposed to be x

Today was a fab example of cross organisational MDT working with the patient at the centre.
There may have been a different outcome due to assumptions, but instead we have avoided a long and distressing admission.
