‘patients in hospitals in which 60% of nurses had bachelor's degrees & nurses cared for an average of six patients would have almost 30% lower mortality than patients in hospitals in which only 30% of nurses had bachelor's degrees & nurses cared for an average of eight patients’

For my dissertation I’m creating a tool to improve care for autistic children & their families when visiting hospital. If you have visited A&E or been an inpatient with your autistic child what would have improved your stay? Would do you want us to know? #Autism #StudentNurse

Well done @ODPNikkiStroud! Really enjoyed your piece in the IPP tonight. Lots for me to research! Imagine all the other ways theatres could become greener with simple changes 💚 AfPP - SaferSurgeryUK College Of Operating Department Practitioners

This is a banner which was hung in at least three schools in York by the South Bank Trust, a MAT. It is harmful to young people and their families, and it is dishonest. This is why. 1/

How do normal people afford Taylor Swift tickets? At £440 a ticket, there’s no chance I can buy a pair and take my daughter….. seriously I can’t believe it. Who needs to earn £15M per night?!

If you are a recently graduated nurse, might you be willing to join an online meeting? We’re trying to identify factors that influence career choices & decisions to stay or leave the NHS/nursing. You’d be helping to inform policy plus we’d give you a voucher to thank you.

5 years ago Milton Keynes was dubbed ‘tent city’ by the media. Today, no one needs to sleep rough on our streets. How did we do it? A thread by the Cabinet Member responsible 👇

The #KingsSpeech failed to address the nursing workforce crisis. Mention of health and social care was scant, with no new legislation to reform the NHS. The NHS and patients will continue to pay the price until at least the next election. Read more: rcn.org.uk/magazines/News…

Please, Sir Mark Spencer, say YES to happy farmers, healthy #bees, safe soils, clean waters. And NO to bee-killing poisons. My email to you today explains why. Please listen to the scientists & experts like The Wildlife Trusts ️#NoMoreNeonics #ActionForInsects #NatureFriendlyFarming
