Tonight Sen Sr Sue Andrews finishes her last (night) shift: retiring after 33yrs in the NHS, ~ 30 of them dedicated to Portsmouth ICU. She is a legend, I loved working with her and she will be massively missed by us all. An ICU rock. Thank you for everything Sue Portsmouth Hospitals University NHST #NHS

Why we need older persons SDEC to work, why we need more therapists, why we need more staff to support getting patients out of bed, why we need improved community care. 😔

Not the whole story, of course, but highlights some of the key issues to be addressed if our NHS is to be fit for the future, & in a way we can be proud of. Can’t just keep relying on incredible staff to do more, with less bbc.co.uk/news/health-64…

🚨 It's crazy that the NHS has told 350 doctors training in anaesthesia that the NHS has no job for them after 3 years training. At the same time we have massive shortages of, you guessed it, anaesthetists. These self-defeating bottlenecks defy logic. Statement from Royal College of Anaesthetists
