Lydeard ward! It was great to get out and see Lydeard ward yesterday. Part of cohort 3 ready to spread and display their ward performance to celebrate what they are excelling in and create discussion around areas of improvement for their area!

When we're leading a meeting or facilitating a group, it's easy to look at people as one homogenous group. But each person comes with a different context, needs, & experience. We need to find ways to engage on different levels: instagram.com/p/CjxZNwSsgl1/… By Tash

Saw this on a filing cabinet at work today. Had to take a picture. Everyone is working under such pressure at the moment and doing their best in challenging times. Despite all our efforts we won’t always get it right … #letsbekind

Hi 👋 I’m Naomi, your new accreditation facilitator. I joined the team in early January and have begun being out and about in the wards and at Champion days.I’ve been at @SFT for 18 years as a midwife so this move is a big change for me, but looking forward to the challenge!

Great presentation from Walsall Healthcare really putting the powerful message of the need for a discharge lounge into perspective. 1 patient going to the discharge lounge supports 5 patients in total #biggerpicture Continuous Improvement @ LTHTR
