Ooh - my new paper on case study is out! What’s a case study, how do you do one, how do you spot a good one? Includes niche examples like the REF impact case study (though it’s mainly about research case studies).

What a fabulous leadership summit organised by @emilymcwhirter.bsky.social & team today. Great presentations but more importantly some fabulous reflections & questions from senior nurses. And a real sense of developing community. So glad to be a part of it. @rcn.org.uk #RCN #NursingLeadership

BLOG from Marcus Wooton. “If we do not demand that its development includes all of humanity, our richest and our poorest, and every nation and place considered, future generations will rightly judge us harshly - and, like elephants, they will not forget.” www.rcn.org.uk/news-and-eve...

NEW PAPER: “Addressing ‘persistent’ and detrimental organisational factors throughout nurses’ careers should continue to be a priority to retain them, safeguard their well‐being and enable them to deliver the standard of care they aspire to” scholar.google.com/scholar?as_y...

Gender discrimination in nursing “You have to be young and pretty and quiet” #RCNResearch25 @gaucipatricia.bsky.social

It's astonishing to me that so much healthcare policy fails to take on board subject matter expertise or engaging the workforce in design or implementation and still expect success www.nursinginpractice.com/latest-news/...

NEW BLOG: Nursing staff need to be empowered with the skills to understand, engage with and potentially lead research – to ensure care is safe, effective and future-ready. That requires a step up in support for nursing research and for nurses engagement in research. www.rcn.org.uk/news-and-eve...

Nurse lecturer redundancies and severances in higher education will impact the quality of education nursing students receive. This is an incredibly serious moment risking the quality of nursing education, the future domestic workforce, and patient safety. We need urgent action. Read more.
