Returning to work. Post my big hysterectomy and big loss of my dad. The NHS has a lot of problems but kindness and compassion from colleagues has been plenty. My dad was forever proud that I became a nurse so I will continue on ❤️
Quick question , what is the dress code for Congress ?? #RCN #Congress24 #union @theRCN
The gift of my child was a gift I didn’t know I needed. I just wish society felt the same. #WDSD24 #WorldDownSyndromeDay #EndTheStereotypes
I am recovering post hysterectomy at the age of 32 because of endo, so pleased it is been spoke about at #RCNReps24 thank you @EndometriosisUK @theRCN

Just emailed my M.P @GarySambrook89 for the @theRCN to Protect my freedom to advocate for my patient’s care and my value. I ask you protect the nursing profession's freedom to strike. #fairpayforNursing #fairpay #union
Let's get this trending. For too long the @Conservatives and the devolved administrations have neglected nurses and nursing students. We need proper funding for students, proper pay, and proper staff levels. #fundourfuture #nhsheros #saveournhs @RCNStudents

A year ago since I stood very proudly for #fairpay for @theRCN @RCNWestMids I shall be back to union duty very soon 🤗
Feeling like a #partnership in the @uhbtrust joint Union office, for the @theRCN @RCNWestMids with @olgalwalters

No, @RishiSunak, you have not reached a resolution with nurses in the NHS. Our members rejected your pay offer, and we remain in dispute. Over 70% of the public back strike action by nursing staff, we will continue to fight for our profession and for our patients. @bbclaurak
It’s been wonderful, bring on 2024! @theRCN @RCNWestMids @RCNSthBham #union #team #nurse
Boxing Day as Nurse in charge. Today I reminded site manager that #patientsafety was my priority always short on staff not short on food or #compassion #nhsboxingday
My #NHSBoxingDay eating left overs, forgot my gravy but least I could find cutlery #nurse #boxingday Thankful I get my entitlement of break today 😂😂
Just told my MP @GarySambrook89 to protect the nursing profession freedom to strike. #FairPayForNursing #rcn #union

@trishgreenhalgh Is this guy for real or is he another dangerous Tory shill? What is happening to this country ? To our NHS? Keep speaking truth Prof. 👏👏👏❤️👍❤️
Wishing my @stjohnambulance collegues well on todays @LondonMarathon early start, long day, amazing teams #beingthedifference #caringforlife #oldhastagsrule!
@StephJonesBerry My vote would be for @alisonleary1 or @JaneEBall 🔥 I'd like to see safe staffing legislation, protection of the nurse title in law, strict limitations on NA scope and greater investment in postgraduate learning and professional development opportunities for nurses.
@credland_nicki @ShaunLintern @CNOEngland @alisonleary1 2/2. staff has never been higher. It’s not being thought through properly [workforce issues].
The RCN set Workforce Standards. Now it’s time to make the case for Nurse : Patient ratios. I’ll be setting out the evidence that demonstrates the critical importance of getting nurse staffing right. #RCNRatios #safestaffing #valuingnursing

Hear from nursing support workers about the benefits of becoming an RCN member. If you are a nursing support worker, discover how RCN membership could benefit you and your career: bit.ly/3GoRsyF
I am very much looking forward to leading the debate on this at Congress in June. You simply can't have your cake and eat it, international workers should have the same right to a family life as anyone else in the UK. This is blatent discrimination. #rcn24
It's quite something when a government appears to celebrate tearing apart the families of international care workers. Only investment in services will deliver for patients, not anti-migrant politics.
There is a limit to the number of dogs you can walk safely. Why is there no limit to the number of patients a nurse can care for safely? #SafeStaffingsavesLives #RCNReps24
#RCNreps24 really enjoyed being able to listen online. didn’t mind not having to do the group work as I could use that time to self reflect .
