Great to see some practical sessions for subcut and iv insulin administration using real examples of issues seen in practice 👍 PHU Patient Safety Naomi Bailey, BA(hons) PGDip MSc RN Amanda Bakes PHU Meds Safety Team

Due to extreme pressures, we've declared a critical incident at QA Hospital. We need every space to treat people with life threatening conditions. Please do not attend our ED unless it is vital & use our local urgent treat centres or call 111. bit.ly/47ULEHX

(1/3) Our Emergency Department is extremely busy. Please keep it free for those who need it. We need two things from our community: • Support patients who are ready for discharge to get home as quickly as possible. • Do not come to the Emergency Department unless it’s vital.
