I've been an acute setting nurse my whole career & I'm absolutely blown away by community palliative care. It's such a HUGE privilege to visit people in their own homes. It's so amazing to be clinical again, helping with symptoms, listening, ACP. Follow your heart if can. X

Absolutely brilliant that Channel 4 is reporting on sickle cell, the lack of funding and the value of specialist nurse. Better training and less neglect of the speciality needed! #sicklecell

My response as a palliative care doctor to Matt Hancock’s monumentally ignorant desire to play God during Covid.

Dear Clinical Colleagues,

Students are not a burden, they are a joy. They are a valuable asset to a team & are the future

The reason you were able to graduate and become the professional you are is because someone took the time to invest in you.

PAY. IT. FORWARD.

Did you know you can self-refer onto our wellbeing service?

If you are accepted onto the programme, the first session will allow you the opportunity to talk about the emotional impact of your condition.
