Receiving lovely feedback today from a deputy manager- mixed & unexpected emotions - it shouldn’t be this hard for colleagues in care homes to have their voice heard. They shouldn’t need me to be heard #socialcarenursing

Our second foot health webinar focused on the CPR for Feet campaign. It raised awareness about avoidable pressure damage to heels and gave advice about providing pressure relief and redistribution to suit individual needs. Watch here: https://t.co/jWF74oMs0L

Alongside other health boards, we're being asked to reduce our use of agency staff. Joining the nurse bank puts our staff in the best position to pick up regular shifts up to five weeks in advance. Get ahead of the curve. Switch to the nurse bank today. https://t.co/l2tc5xZmIB
