Fab day yesterday with @KatieNoble241 responding to 999 calls on @stjohnambulance co-responding pilot. Even had time to meet up with the @NARSBASICS Emergency Responders - another charity working to save lives across Norfolk.
Today was @KatieNoble241’s and my final shift supporting @EastEnglandAmb volunteering with @stjohnambulance, as our funding from NHSE comes to an end. It’s been a great experience and opportunity to support our communities.

💚🚑 Teamwork makes the dream work! Our crews were assisted by @stjohnambulance volunteers in Winterton on Sea at the weekend. A great example during #VolunteersWeek of how we work with other partners and charities to provide emergency care to our patients!
Really enjoyable weekend out responding on behalf of EEAST with @stjohnambulance

Started the L3CERAD course this weekend.
37yrs years of driving habits needed changing to learn a new method of driving!
1st day meal stop with @TW10FLY @SamFarmer1 near Cromer pier.
Looking forward to the rest of course but passing the exams are a concern 🤔

A year ago we were teaching our @RSPCA_official rescues that people aren't all scary and it's okay to be in the same room as them. Last night we facetimed each other from opposite ends of the house because we'd both been cat trapped. Best decision ever #AdoptDontShop

Only took 8 years of living in Norwich but we finally made it to a City match 💛💚 based on the score, I'm going to say we're not the good luck charm they need this season... – at Norwich, England

A week of annual leave well spent if you ask me. Now to spend the day retreating to my 19th century housewife hobbies of gardening, embroidery and reading a book with a cat on my lap – at Peak Forest, England

First few days of annual leave and we've already ticked off the highest peak and the deepest cave. Now time to explore the bits in the middle... – at Peak Forest, England

A huge thank you to all of those who voted.

Flowchart from @NHSEngland.
“Do not perform urine dipsticks: Dipsticks become more unreliable with increasing age over 65 years. By 80 years half of older adults in care, and most with a urinary catheter, will have bacteria present in the bladder/urine without an infection.”

By 80 years half of older adults in care, and most with a urinary catheter, will have bacteria present in the bladder/urine without an infection. This "asymptomatic bacteriuria" is not harmful, and although it causes a positive urine dipstick, antibiotics are not beneficial and may cause harm *
