“Though you no longer walk beside me physically, I see you in every memory. I feel you in every heartbeat. I hear you in every song. I know you in every thought. I laugh with you in every joy. I cry with you in every sorrow. For though you no longer walk beside me, you have never truly left me, for I feel your presence with me every step of the way and you have never truly gone.” Wonderful words by Tahlia Hunter ❤️ Amazing Artwork by Helen Yousaf ❤️

Today I have written to our Prime Minster @RishiSunak @10DowningStreet urging him to facilitate urgent & meaningful negotiations between @SteveBarclay & @theRCN @patcullen9 There may be a small window of opportunity to avert industrial action, it must be taken.

And the award for Exceptional Contribution to the Patient Experience goes to Joel Bonner! During what has been the most difficult time to be a patient in A&E, Joel’s warmth and compassionate nature have made a real difference. Well done! #StaffAwards2022

111 were on great form last night and I noticed that all patients with abdominal pain are diagnosed with a ruptured or dissecting aneurysm! Do you know how common this actually is? Not very I can tell you. It just heaps more pressure on an already struggling #Ambulance service.

Anti-vaxxers saying they don’t want the vaccine because they care what goes into their body…..I’ve seen most of your exes, no you do not. #antivaxxers #Covid #Covid_19 #COVID19

In the hospital where my sister works, they’ve been asked not to attend parties or social gatherings so not to put patients & colleagues at risk. So do remember that many NHS will be sacrificing what happens in their own private lives to keep others safe. So let’s all do our bit.

Right now 100% of the patients on our Critical Care Covid unit are unvaccinated. They are young. All between 30 - 57 years old. All eligible for a vaccine. Severe covid is a preventable disease. Please get the Jab and when asked get a booster.

You do not need to attend A&E for common colds, coughs, minor injuries etc. I understand it’s difficult if you cannot get a same day appointment but attending an emergency department for minor issues is not the solution.
