My @KingsNursing PhD graduation ceremony celebrated with my wonderful parents, supportive husband, extraordinary supervisors Prof Glenn Robert @spuddyjo anne marie rafferty Rona Moss-Morris & clinical mentor Catherine Oakley. My gratitude to all who supported me. You all know who you are!

40yrs ago this week I qualified as a nurse UCLH & stayed to staff on a urology ward. That is where I decided my career was to be in oncology/urology/surgical nursing. A great career having given me lots of opportunities to develop my scope of practice & deliver quality care.

Doing a "workforce review" in the middle of a retention crisis is akin to pouring petrol on a burning house.

I love this Helen Bevan totally on point
