The current state of the NHS looks and feels really bad. Really, really bad. The volume of genuinely unwell patients is just overwhelming. Staff are utterly exhausted and dispirited. There is some hope in Scotland and Wales, but...

Is travelling abroad worth the grief right now? 2 teenage children will be only partially vaccinated so will need PCRs =last minute extra costs and stress + potential flight cancellations #COVID #flightcancelled #holiday #staycation

Throwing £150m at blue lights in the high street, is money down the drain. More ambulances mean more queues. On the other hand, investing the £150m in care workers, at current rates, would buy about 12,500,000 hours of care. myemail.constantcontact.com/All-we-ve-got.…

EXCL: This is the NHS as you’ve never seen it. 19 patients crammed on trolleys in corridors unable to get into a full A&E. 92 year-old May has been stuck on hers for 3 days. Outside, ambulances queue, delayed getting to other calls. Patients have died waiting. #ITVTonight

Assignment completed with 3 days to spare! Celebrating with BBQ, hot tub and a glass of wine!

Thank you! I think we both really enjoyed these shifts. You were such an enthusiastic learner, welcome to work with me anytime 😃 Learning from Excellence, Plymouth NHS Trust

Suicide is the leading cause of death in 5-19 year olds. Prevention should 100% be taught in schools. End the stigma surrounding mental health, and get people talking. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/6233…

I have reworked my thread on the NHS pay deal having read more about it. The argument I make is the same, but the data is slightly different, so this is version 2 of why the NHS is at very real risk because of this deal. A thread….

For all #NHS staff thinking their pay offer may not be all it is cracked up to be, please read this. The reality is you are being massively short changed.

Super excited to be offered my dream job of trainee ACP in ED! University Hospitals Plymouth NHS Trust

Many of these poor patients are waiting in noisy corridors with no privacy, all dignity lost. Their vulnerability visible to all who walk up & down the busy corridor. I really struggle with this but know that outside there are even sicker patients waiting in ambulances. 1/6
