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

Please stop using JUST-Without you, nothing in the #NHS would function
I’m just a HCA
I’m just a porter
I’m just a cleaner
I’m just a receptionist
I’m just a cook
I’m just a technician
I’m just a band 2,3,4,5…
YOU are helping to run the NHS
YOU are amazing ✊
YOU are valued 🌟

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.

Throughout #RCNStrike action the overwhelming messages of solidarity from patients and the public alike has given our members that extra strength to keep going.
Thank you for your unwavering support. Together we will continue this fight to protect you and the NHS.

You are powerful.
You are passionate.
You are your patients' greatest advocate.

To everyone who supported this week's strikes, thank you.

2nd stop in Brighton at Sussex Community Trust again meeting formidable passionate nursing staff who are determined to keep going on behalf of their patients #RCNStrike

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.

"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.

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 💙

MENTAL CAPACITY 🧵
💬 Could you assess Bed 3’s capacity quickly?
💬 Do you think he has capacity to decide on discharge?
💬 I thought he had, but now I’m not so sure.
Ever hear discussions like these? What do you understand by capacity? Let’s think through it together...

🍁Footwear and falls 🍁
We should aim for shoes or slippers first. However, where well fitting shoes/slippers are not available slipper socks are a great alternative. @nhs_scft colleagues, check out this video to make sure we are using them correctly ⬇️
Ensuring your patient is wearing the right footwear is a critical factor in managing falls risk. Medline have put this simple video together to help you train teams on the appropriate use of their slipper socks.
