My heart is heavy this week as 5 nursing staff died due to #Covid_19 . We must do all we can to protect staff, keep them safe. This includes; correct PPE, vaccination, providing culturally sensitive health and well-being interventions & keeping healthy. May they rest in peace 🙏🏾

This morning attended the final morning prayer at #church before Christmas Day tomorrow. It’s going to be a very different Christmas for all of us this year. I pray for all especially those who are on their own, sick & who’ve have had a tough year. Amen and Blessings to you all.

It’s important that the #nursing #Midwifery professions are aware of health inequalities. The student nurses are in their 1st year of training. Many were seeing & listening to Black and Asian nurses & midwives for the first time in the ‘Exposed’ documentary! @HospitalSantPau

As I was walking into work @KingsCollegeNHS this morning. Observed one of our Specialist Nurses comforting & consoling a young man on the street. Didn’t know if he was a patient/public or relative. But the #Nurse embodies all that’s good & great in #Nursing profession #TeamKings
