Santa’s little helpers have returned to Ward 8, to help Buddy in PAU. The Elves have isolated, vaccinated and covid tested. Also wearing their masks! Keep an eye on their mischief-making! Be good #icanthelpmyselfpaediatricnurse Paediatrics

Thanks to the lovely people at Project Linus, who once again have made these beautiful blankets. Making Ward 8 child friendly, and a precious keepsake. Paediatrics

Meanwhile on Ward 8, Snowflake Elf ended up on the good list. Elfie Elfkin, with a tracheotomy, needed some physio and suction an AGP. So Snowflake put up an isolation pod, and did a fabulous job. Alas Buddy, we noted taking selfies, adorned the staff board 😱🤣. Paediatrics

Santa sent his elves to measure the chimney’s. Maybe a little weight gain in lockdown. Poor Bob the Builder was volunteered 🤣. Santa has to save his magic for those without chimney’s. Paediatrics

Ward 8 elves 😱, think they are back on the naughty list. Buddy was building snow people ⛄️, now we can’t find Buddy. The other elves are throwing snowballs…beware. Paediatrics

The children on Ward 8 have enjoyed seeing what mischief the Elves have been up to, but it’s time to leave and help Santa deliver the presents 🎁 see you next year. Thanks to all the nurses. Paediatrics
