Well worth it …
We still have spaces left on our upcoming Restorative Just Culture workshop. Develop your understanding of Restorative Just Culture principles and how these can impact staff wellbeing and learning at NBT

One massive thank you from ICU to @SuperSouthmead for their support to make this possible 🧸🏥🧸 @hvweale @kate_allchorne @NBT_ICU
Donations have been used for soft toys to comfort children & families who are separated for long periods of time in the ICU @NorthBristolNHS. One toy is given to the parent or caregiver being treated, & one to the child to create a link between them while they're not together 💕

Our amazing ICU roof top garden 🌻🌷🪻🌹 It took many years of fundraising, generous donations and organisation by individual groups of staff, patients and their families to get here … but it was so worth it 🪴🏥 @NBT_ICU @ICUEd_NBT @SuperSouthmead @NBTNursing
"For patients who are critically ill or have been through major trauma, the garden can bring a sense of normality & a break from the clinical setting”, says ICU Senior Sister Sara Millin. Spring has arrived, so we revisited the ICU terrace garden to catch up with the team. 🌻🌿☀️

It was a long time coming … to become digital 🖥️⌨️🏥 It hasn’t been without teething problems, but with a bit of ‘tweaking’ and support from @nbrisNHSdigital we are getting there 😊 @NBT_ICU @SuperSouthmead @ICUEd_NBT #patienceisavirtue 😉
One year ago today... we launched a new Philips ICCA ICU system @NorthBristolNHS. This has provided access to real-time patient data, supported safety, and aided collaboration - all from a generous donation to Southmead Hospital Charity. @SuperSouthmead @ICUnurses_NBT @NBT_ICU
