Qualified 2022. Entered GP as an NQN. I’m enjoying the personal and professional challenges, and development opportunities my role offers. Ask me about it 😊

Exclusive: Half of practice nurses still without pay rise for 2024/25, @NurseinPractice survey reveals buff.ly/40GTp3k
Today sees the first of our #RSV clinics done and it was very positive. Patients were informed and receptive, and we managed the reconstitution process in 5min appts.
Look forward to protecting more 75-80yo over the next few months

With only a few weeks to go until the start of the university term, it's important that students are up to date with vaccines for:
🔹 MenACWY
🔹 HPV
🔹 MMR
This can be checked on the NHS App 📱
ALT Dr Shamez Ladhani, Consultant Epidemiologist at UKHSA, said: "We usually see increases in cases of meningococcal meningitis after the university term starts in September. New and returning students from around the country and overseas coming together and mixing means infection spreads easily, with some students becoming seriously ill and tragically in some cases, we see deaths. I urge young people starting or returning to university to check they’re up to date on their MenACWY, HPV and MMR jabs and to contact their GP if unsure."

I still can’t quite believe this happened. What does it say about our society?

Networking and learning #gpn @mcalinden_helen @RCNGPNForum @Gpnsnn @PrimaryCareNHS @stwwellbeinghub @NHSSTW
17months qualified as a #GPN & I’m embracing my supervisor role. My @StaffsUni #studentnurse has been a credit to the uni she represents and the profession she is joining. It’s such a pleasure and a privilege to work alongside our future #GPNs
I’ve recently started to do #HRT reviews… there is so much to contribute when patients are experiencing #perimenoause or #menopausal symptoms #GPN
I’ve taken a step back for a few months. I recognised that being an #NQN was enough & I needed to step back from nursing outside of my #GPN role. But exciting times are ahead & I want to share my experience #studentnurse
Tense morning waiting for our daughter’s GCSE result email to *ping*. Her secondary schooling hasn’t been easy, leaving a girls grammar school in Yr 9 due to mental health and integrating into a mainstream co ed - she’s worked hard both socially & academically 🙌🏼 #gcse2023

General Practice Nurses – Are they our unappreciated leaders?
GPNs play a pivotal and dynamic role in the healthcare system, often serving as the backbone of primary care services...

Junior doctors start their careers on £29,384.
There is not a single Conservative MP who would be prepared to do their jobs for that salary.
If we’re not careful there won’t be a single junior doctor who is prepared to do so either.

How many times have we heard "you will deskill in primary care!"
This myth needs to be busted!
These #StudentNurses are proof that we can offer amazing #ClinicalPlacements: all 9 have achieved all of their competencies & will be joining the #NMC register very soon! @RCNGPNForum
