A very hot (and cake filled) day of celebrations within the team today! Happy Birthday Tosin, and we will miss Callum & Kirsty as they move onto their next rotations
🍾🎂🚑
Sad for our TAP'S to be rotating out, what an amazing few months it's been 💙💚
But also welcome to our 2 new band 5's 💙💚

My latest mission is to improve pelvic health within our elderly population on W12. Incontinence in the elderly is not normal, and we need to address it to improve QOL, falls, skin integrity etc. - not to mention the ££ spent on pads in the NHS @GeriSoc @AGILECSP @Age_and_Ageing

@GeriSoc @UKHaHSoc @RCPhysicians have released a joint statement in support of the term #HospitalatHome instead of #VirtualWard. The term ‘virtual wards’ does not reflect the level of care and skill required, nor does it provide clarity to patients. bgs.org.uk/policy-and-media/…
