It was a pleasure to visit Acute Frailty Unit today and complete their STAR Visit. Leadership and teamwork was the common theme which shone through resulting in the whole team and the ward manager- Nikola receiving one of our much sought after shining STAR awards 💫@D19Kathryn

The ups and downs, the laughter, the trial and errors, the positives and the learning curves have all led to AFUs second birthday! The ward wouldn’t be where it is now without the hardworking team and wider network of staff supporting us - so thank you ALL 💙

Our specialist nurse Emily has received special thanks from a patient she has been following up on our Virtual Frailty Ward. We aim to keep discharged patients safe at home and prevent readmission #teamwork #continuityofcare #frailty #admissionavoidance
