Yes, therapy helps heal trauma. Learning about the mind-body connection is also a great resource. What is often overlooked is the power of validation. The words that tell someone we donβt think theyβre crazy, we think theyβre hurting. This has immediate and lasting impact.

Itβs funny, I remember when I was a kid and my mum explained periods to me and I was like - sorry, what the fuck?? This sounds appalling??? And now Iβve been menstruating for nearly 20 years I have to say - I was spot on

Reasons why this is NOT good
1οΈβ£ We have a RETENTION problem not recruitment
2οΈβ£ without experienced RNs who is going to educate in PLEs
3οΈβ£ we have a shortage of nurse academics. So again, who is going to educate them?
4οΈβ£ plug the multiple holes in bucket BEFORE adding more water β at Ingliston, Scotland
We're investing in & growing our future workforce. Student nurses & midwives will increase by 8.7% in 22/23, total intake = 4837.
10th consecutive year of growth, with intake doubling over last 10 years.
Mental health nursing β¬οΈ20% from previous year.

Let's not rest on numbers alone - more students without proper support in training has a risk of affecting quality of learning. Can't just bring more people in the room without looking at what resources are currently available to train them.
Today @ucas_corporate have released their end of cycle data. @CNOEngland and I are thrilled to see we have exceeded 30,000 acceptances for nursing & midwifery courses at English universities for the very first time this year. This works out as a 34% increase since 2018. Β (1/5)

Play Specialists/Nursery Nurses are the unsung heroes of children's care in hospital. They honestly cannot be praised enough for the work they do ππ
I have a vivid memory of opening up to a uni doctor at 22 about mental health issues I barely understood, and his reaction was to ask me if I'd "talked to Mam recently". I have never felt so infantalised. It was a few years, and acute MH crisis later, before I tried a GP again.

The Golem effect is where our behaviour leads to poorer student performance.
It's where we place lower expectations on our students, and consequently their performance is worse.
If you've ever had a supervisor who doesn't believe in you, you'll know this effect well.

The sheer contempt and callousness contained in the word "only". As if only perfectly healthy children count.

Women who stand up for themselves get penalized.
51 studies: a woman who negotiates for herself fearsβand facesβbacklash as selfish & aggressive.
If she negotiates for others, suddenly she seems caring.
I want to live in a world that celebrates women advocating for themselves.
Really astounded by the amount of one-upmanship shown by a lot of HCPs, it's exhausting. An environment of excessive competition goes against the team working and safe educational space that is necessary for safe patient care. I'm growing so tired of it.
