I have always been proud of telling our cohort’s story to the IENs on how we survived during the pandemic. We arrived a week before the national lockdown was announced. The pandemic taught me resilience, discipline including high value for life and wellbeing. I had a bittersweet first year in the UK. However, my experiences during the pandemic honed by clinical knowledge and skills. It gave me confidence to try other roles which aligns with what I am passionate in doing - teaching. 4 years later, I am still teaching and I would not have reached to this point without those encounters, the people who have incessantly supported my insane ideas and the respect that I have developed over the years towards this role. And I have always associated success with boldness. Because if others can do it, why can’t you? Happy 4th Anniversary to me and to Cohort 14 ❤️

As part of Pain Awareness Month, today's #ThriveThursday session focused on pain management pathways & the vital role that nurses play in caring for patients. We met nurses who are keen to become Pain Champions to help improve patient care, education & best practice @ImperialNHS

When a team steps away together, they come back stronger. Lilian Holland Ward’s PTE away day gave nurses the space to connect, reflect & rally around excellence. The journey starts here. ✨ #SharedGovernance# @olulat3 @MLU_PTE @SigsworthJanice @ImperialPeople @rvanessadr
