Worrying for #MentalHealth Nursing, that as well as a diluted undergraduate education, there is a growing culture of the expertise not even being valued in clinical practice. #MHDeservesBetter

Happy 2nd anniversary to Learning Disability nurses everywhere!!! This is our day, so lets shine! Here's a dabble I've created to highlight just a small sample of some of our amazing leaders and the movement we continue to create! @CNOEngland teamCNO 💙 Tom Cahill 🌈🌈 Andrea Sutcliffe 💙💚💜

Amazing piece of work commissioned by our @CNOEngland and designed by the brilliant The Makaton Charity. Thank you!! Great working on this with Ellie Gordon Such a vital learning resource. Acosia Nyanin 💙 Prof Mark Radford CBE PhD RN

Was also talking about the power of ‘being with’ with students today ❤️ we can forget that it is a powerful intervention, perhaps one of the most powerful tools we have. It should be a core part of MHNursinf curriculum Mental Health Deserves Better: #MHDeservesBetter

Couldn’t agree more. Especially as I support apprenticeship learners. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/in…

The Nursing Times are seeking ideas for nurse education in their 'manifesto by nurses'. Opportunity for #MentalHealth nurses to be heard in calls for respecting the field specific content within undergraduate curricula. Please respond. #MHDeservesBetter nursingtimes.net/news/education…

Meanwhile we're still waiting for a review into field preparation at university. We hope the review of practice learning at least reviews the abomination of the practice assessment document, which sees students box-ticking many skills they will never use. #MHDeservesBetter

It was a pleasure to be interviewed for the below article 👇 mental health nurse to mental health service user was an arduous and insightful journey. My personal reflection surrounds the fact we are human, muddling our way through life, all vulnerable to MH challenges

I recently had a paper published by the Journal of Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing, about my experiences of harm in mental health services; how this caused me to self-discharge; and my life now as a "service-avoider". It's available here: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jp…

This mornings DMs from ⚠️Healthcare professional told to withdraw a serious datix ⚠️A #nurse who was only RN for 32 patients overnight ⚠️Three people asking about raising serious concerns due to push model. It's not even 9am Is it any wonder we have a retention problem 😬 #nhs

4/4 If like us, you feel this and you want to get involved, please review this document and get in touch. #MHNursesDay #MHDeservesBetter …talhealthdeservesbetter.wordpress.com/2023/08/28/wha…

A fantastic piece here!

Hello Nursing and Midwifery Council. How regular is 'regular'? The future nurse standards don't assert, promote or protect specific skills for mental health nurses, and change is needed. #MHDeservesBetter

People don't choose to be on disability benefits. It's their last resort. Stop blaming people with mental health problems. If the Secretary of State wants a grown-up conversation about this, then he should meet with us. We've sent an invite. 1/3

Why we must vote this year...

"There is a clear call from participants for MH nurse education to be recognised as a distinct specialisation... emphasising the importance of specialist training–a clear response to the sense that MH nurses can often feel invisible" #MHDeservesBetter onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/in…

Perhaps with this damning report, there is an opportunity for renewal, and a regulator that really listens. Poor #MentalHealth nursing education is happening under the nose of Nursing and Midwifery Council, and they have done nothing to prevent this. #MHDeservesBetter
