#NHS75 without the NHS, exchange transfusions and specialist neonatal care I would not be here. Proud to work for the NHS, proud of my teams and lucky to have made lifelong friends in my career.

If we are a team then no job should be seen as beneath you If we are here to help each other then we do things we might not usually do… Whether that’s taking minutes, printing labels, emptying bins, checking stock, cleaning up or folding laundry No hierarchy at times of need

As another wave of #RCNStrike action comes to a close, our members send a clear message. Prime Minister @RishiSunak, it’s your choice: 1. Choose for strikes to continue 2. Choose to negotiate #FairPayForNursing #SafeStaffingSavesLives

I thought long & hard about whether to take part in the nurses strike this week. I thought & hoped this would never be needed. Yesterday & today, I went on strike for patient safety, for safer staffing, for the safety & well being of my colleagues & for the future of our NHS.

You are powerful. You are passionate. You are your patients' greatest advocate. You are fighting for what you are owed. To everyone who supported this week's strikes, thank you. We will keep going and we will win. #FairPayForNursing #RCNStrike #SafeStaffingSavesLives

If no action is taken to resolve the record number of unfilled nursing jobs then we risk losing the NHS. We need #FairPayForNursing to turn this around and give the public the care they deserve. RT to show your solidarity with nursing staff like Ellie. #RCNStrike #NursesStrike

"We need you to take this seriously." As our fourth day of strike action begins across England, our members call on Rishi Sunak to stop strike action, protect patients and defend our NHS with a fair deal on pay. Share this post if you agree. #FairPayForNursing #RCNStrikes

⁦@theRCN⁩ #fairpayfornursing #NursesStrike something I thought I would never do, spent the day on the picket line at BGH representing. Great support from the public and also from my managers. Not a bad spot for networking either ⁦@PullanPullan7⁩ ⁦

How do you write a tweet the day before a #NursesStrike ? How do acknowledge and support nurses who have always, for generations, put patients first, but have been undervalued for too long. Be kind, informed, professional, respectful and visible, on and offline tomorrow 💙

#NursesActive no stairs today but fast morning walk around the site before work and again at lunch time. Great outside spaces in Horsham Hospital.
