As #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth draws to a close, read my latest Department of Health and Social Care blog. Once again, I emphasise why #socialcare professionals and informal #carers should take care of their own mental health and wellbeing, as much as those they care for. bit.ly/3ZbdA8e

This #CarersWeek2025, I want to recognise the vital role of unpaid carers and the close partnership between carers and our adult social care nurses. Together, you make compassionate, person-centred care possible every day. Thank you. #AdultSocialCare #Nursing

I was proud to present a Chief Nurse ASC Gold Award to Marcia Williams to close off #CarersWeek2025. For 7 years, Marcia has delivered outstanding #care, rain or shine, morning and night, enabling independent, active lives. A shining example of what great care looks like.

Great to be at Jubilee Court this week with QICN colleagues and the launch of the Social Care Nursing Faculty. A fantastic place for social care nursing to develop its community!

Really interesting roundtable today on learning disability nursing in social care. We explored how to raise awareness, demonstrate impact, and take action. Grateful for the breadth of insight from colleagues across the sector. #LDNursing #SocialCare
