The Ayes have it! Honoured to move my Nurse (Use of Title) Bill, to protect the title 'nurse'. It now moves to 2nd Reading. My Bill will enhance patient safety, protect public trust and ensure we truly respect the experience & expertise of a registered nurse. #ProtectNurse 1/2

Incredibly proud of this and so humbled that it has received so much recognition! Thank you to everyone who supported me on my journey 💜

Huge congratulations to Ethan, MIMA's 'Apprentice of the Year' winner! Very well deserved 👏 #NAW2025 UoS Health & Society University of Salford @promanchester

Many congratulations Nursing Associate in Manchester - well done Ethan and an NMC thank you to everyone who has nurtured and developed you.

We're incredibly proud of Ethan & everything he has achieved whilst on programme & beyond since he graduated in September! #MadeinManchester #MIMA #NursingAssociateMagic

Getting tired of seeing so many articles about “half cooked nurses” or “half trained nurses”. The RNA role is its own profession, NMC set the platforms, RNAs who work in specialised roles did further training such as additional degrees, they don’t need to “top up” for everything!

Love working with my #DistrictNursing family! A rare stop for lunch on a beautiful but busy day! Manchester Local Care Organisation MFT NHS

The role of Nursing Associate is necessary in bridging the gap in care within the NHS and yet somehow there’s still mystery behind our role. Help us get the recognition and national standardisation we require by signing this!! #nursingassociate change.org/p/protect-and-…

Double whammy!!

Slightly late announcing it but I got my first module results of my Master's degree 94%!!!! University of Salford crazy to think all the work I have put in to establishing myself as a Nursing Associate and now I've manage to get this result at master's level UoS Health & Society UoS Nursing Associate Foundation Degree Programme

Did you know? Silver dressings can reduce the infection risk in wounds. I've just finished a research study on the subject, there's lots of great research out there! doi.org/10.1111/iwj.12…

As someone passionate about teaching student Nursing Associates, I know how challenging it can be to navigate a role still finding its place within healthcare teams. Role ambiguity and limited career visibility remain real barriers. #NursingEducation #NursingAssociates
