#OliversCampaign NHS Ability NHSE Workforce, Training and Education – NW

Throughout this time, I have had the honour of caring for patients and worked alongside fantastic colleagues. Although recent years have been the most challenging for the NHS, nurses, midwives, nursing associates and health and care support staff have together achieved so much.

🧵Today, after five years as CNO for England and a career in the NHS for almost 40 years, I have announced that I will be retiring later this year. My role as CNO has, undoubtedly, been the highlight of my career in the NHS and has been a privilege.

This should be a really interesting event for psychological professionals working with North East Yorkshire region. Dr Romana Farooq Transcultural CBT Dr Jude Graham BEM QN 🌈💙 Gail Harrison SYNERGI Leeds NHSE Workforce, Training and Education – NW
