Looking forward to sharing my anti-racism work commissioned by Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust, with additional funding from Arts Council England, London. Alongside 2 other fantastic artists whose practice explores themes of identity and cultural belonging It's free! artsandhealthhub.org/events/creativ…

Celebrating #BlackHistoryMonth on ITU Harefield Hospital thanks to SSN Pearl for organising this wonderful display 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Ellen Dunthorne Lauren Berry Royal Brompton and Harefield Guy's and St Thomas' Dr Debbie Ford 💚 (she/her)

Meanwhile, back at the beeb… 3 leaders in the NHS; 2 frontline clinicians and one no longer practicing clinical medicine. Guess which one gets Dr in their title? 🤔 Of course it’s just another honest mistake… Sort it out BBC News (UK) Miss Shamim Umarji FRCS @StGeorgesTrust deserve better

Today is #WorldMentalHealthDay 🌍 And it’s time for action. Take that first step to getting help. Or share this post and help us reach someone who really needs to see it 💙

“I lost colleagues whilst I was working each day and the government has barely acknowledged that fact… People were dying in front of us & the morgues were full. We had no body bags left in the trust.” Please listen to this heart-rending testimony 😔

Taking care of our staff ensures the delivery of better patient care. This #WorldMentalHealthDay, we speak to Dr Debbie Ford (Dr Debbie Ford 💚 (she/her)), staff psychology service lead, about her passion for providing psychological support to staff: rbht.nhs.uk/careers/what-o…

I’m very proud of #staffpsychology Royal Brompton and Harefield Evelina London Guy's and St Thomas', and all our incredible team have delivered since we started developing our service. On #WorldMentalHealthDay2023 we continue to strive to challenge stigma, care deeply and make change happen together #WMHD2023

This thread is spot on. Many people progress or develop advanced skill. Not all can lead. We grow and nurture that skill. People need to invest in themselves as leaders. Get feedback on their leadership #time #patience #practice

The eternal illusion. Everyone else has it sorted, is organised, copes with it all, is in control. I’m yet to see anyone, including the person I see in the mirror, have all their ducks in a row. I LOVE THAT. The imperfect, beautiful humans we are. Through good & bad #nojudgement

If you're an NHS board doing this I can guarantee at some point you're going to end up dealing with a media enquiry from me when the 💩 hits the fan: kingsfund.org.uk/blog/2023/10/p…

Excellent thread. The pressure in the system is real. Not one person, anywhere, has it easy as an NHS employee. Thankyou ✨Sonia Sparkles✨🖤 for your honesty, vulnerability and thought provoking reality #nhsstaffmatter

Yes, just as nationwide NHS staff support services in are cut or face cuts, and the mental health system is chronically underfunded & overstretched. We are not the answer, we need foundations to be stable, but we help everyday #nonhswithoutstaff

What an amazing morning off Lindengate - such a great charity! Learning our craft with Gaynor, the wreath legend! & all the amazing volunteers. So lovely to see all you do to help the wellbeing of people, supported and surrounded by nature. #xmas #wellbeing

I enjoyed taking part in this discussion with The RCN and Suman Shrestha Cardiac arrests can be very traumatising for the individual, it’s good to talk and share experiences.
