We welcomed Mark Landler from The New York Times to our hospitals to see how hard our teams have been working despite the challenges. He also visited our Surgical Hub and heard about our work to reduce our waiting lists. nytimes.com/2023/07/16/wor…

Merry Christmas !

We received feedback on the Amazon tablets we provided for children in neurophysiology. These devices can offer distraction & entertainment during what can be a stressful & challenging time. Playing games, watching videos or engaging with educational apps, can help pass time.😀

Epilepsy can happen to anyone. Would you know what to do if you saw someone having a tonic clonic seizure? - Stay Calm - Cushion the person's head - Call for help For more info: bit.ly/3VnGj88 #firstaid #epilepsy #seizure

Thank you to the Telegraph Breaking News Online for removing the word 'epileptic' from reviewer Keith Watson's description of Wynne Evan's Halloween dance on Strictly last weekend. The term was inappropriate and offensive. The apology and action are very welcome.💜 bit.ly/4hskJZq
