This is welcome change to a system that has been in desperate need of reform for a long time. A step in the right direction (but not the whole leap, yet)

Happy #LDNurseDay to all friends and colleagues in the wonderful profession! 🎉🎊
Every day I consider myself lucky to be a part of this community, and proud to be a learning disability nurse.

Extremely important points raised below. Money alone will not address these problems.
Caring for staff = caring for patients.
Whilst I welcome investment in the #NHS,
I want to get a few things straight.
Here are 3 things you need to know if you care about our health service: 👇🧵

Pleased to be back at my old stomping grounds today, delivering a guest lecture on acute care for people with learning disabilities, for the second year student nurse cohort. A lovely group with some fab ideas #PracticeEducation #Nursing #LearningDisabilityNursing #keephoLDNon
This is fab.
It's time society stopped making assumptions about people with learning disabilities and what they can or can't do.

Why do we have Occupational Therapists working on inpatient mental health wards?
Because people with severe mental illness find even the most basic self-care and daily activities a huge challenge.
I’d rather this money was spent on helping patients recover, not trying to shoehorn them into jobs they are unable to do.
Mental health patients to get job coach visits, says minister…
*This is mostly bollocks & a waste of time & money✔️
**Tell/show me u have never set foot on an Acute MH ward or PICU… without telling me…

There are so many benefits to including people with lived experience in improvement work
We need to put the effort, time and support into making it a reality for all projects – not just some projects on the outskirts of healthcare

Spend a few moments checking in on yourself, your loved ones, and others today #WorldMentalHealthDay #WMHD24
It's World Mental Health Day! 🌍💜
It’s a day to talk about mental health and show everyone that mental health matters.
We all deserve good mental health. 💜

There is no offer of RNLD training for the whole South East of England this year. This is a workforce crisis for the NHS and for equity in access to health and care @wesstreeting
