Sway. Have a look at the new " Non-medical prescribing bulletin Autumn 2022" |sway.office.com/VGgKIhoAj1nh…
We are sorry we had to close the library this week, but as you can see it was for a good reason and despite what it looks like, the library team are making progress and I’ve enjoyed standing by the doors explaining what’s going on @WestSuffolkNHS

New for WSHT Staff!
The BMJ Best Practice comorbidities manager supports the management of the whole patient with guidance on the treatment of an acute condition alongside pre-existing comorbidities. Funded by HEE, free to the NHS in England. @NHSKFH bmj.com/company/hee/
And so it begins! Estates and Portering have started to remove shelving and furniture ready for the installation of our new shelving on Monday, already the space looks bigger and the new, lower shelving will make a huge difference. Phil and I are so excited!
It’s finally arrived! We will be installing our new, mobile shelving from 7-14 October! Unfortunately this means the Library will be closed during this period but we will continue to respond to email queries as soon as we are able.
Laura has set out her stall at the 2022 Palliative Care Conference in Bury St Edmunds today, looks like a packed programme and lots of opportunities to talk about how NHS Libraries support all who deliver palliative services.
It’s #AlcoholAwarenessWeek and we have a display in the Library with lots of information and resources. The theme this year is alcohol and relationships as drinking can have a devastating effect not only on the drinker but also on colleagues, friends and family members
New books added to the catalogue in August, see the full list here eel.nhs.uk/wsftlibrary and follow the link to the catalogue to search for these and others.
All the latest healthcare news is out now in the August edition of the HMIU at eel.nhs.uk/HMIU
We’re all feeling pretty tired after the last 18 months (Phil and I are literally worn to the bone!) so come and enjoy a break with our new collection of relaxing reads chosen by NHS staff for NHS staff. Scan the code on the bookmark to see the full collection @WestSuffolkNHS
Hopefully with a working link this time, latest edition of the HMIU eel.nhs.uk/HMIU
June edition of the HMIU out now at eel.uk/HMIU (and an excuse to post a gif of Mr Darcy)
It’s a double celebration in June for Pride 🌈 and NHS Knowledge and Library Services Awareness Week #KLSNAW we’ll be tweeting throughout the week to highlight how libraries take the heavy lifting out of getting evidence into practice @WestSuffolkNHS @SteveDunnCEO
The May edition of the Equality and Diversity Bulletin is out now at eel.nhs.uk/WSFT-EDI
Me and Phil would love some new company, so if you are feeling a bit overwhelmed with being back at work, pop over for a free hot drink and some quality downtime and check out our fabulous collections for your well-being.
If you are returning to work @WestSuffolkNHS and feeling a bit wobbly, a warm welcome awaits you @wshlibrary and Fred and Phil would love to see you. Free hot drinks and oodles of lovely books and online resources, plus our Mood Boosting, Well-being and Equalities collections 👍
