Hello my name is …. What do you like to be called ❤️

Still so many people are afraid to talk about mental health and suicide. There is still a taboo around it. Please know that talking about it saves lives. We talk about breaking our arm, we understand when it is a physical illness, but when it comes to our brain people shy away.

The next parent 'Sleep Workshop' from the Children's Learning Disability Team is on Weds 17th April from 10am-12pm on the topic of providing sleep advice and support for parents. For more information or to book a place, call 01274 221203 [email protected]

Etymology of the day is an important one. The root of ‘compassion’ is a Latin word meaning ‘suffer with’.

To be compassionate you need to do 4 things.
1) Attend-be fully present
2) Understand
3) Empathise
4) Helping. Great advice from prof Michael West #ACA2024 Airedale Hospital Avinash Ganesh Annie McCluskey Sajan Sathyan Amanda Stanford💙💛

Compassion is the single most important intervention we have available in healthcare Michael West
