Pleased to have contributed to this panel discussion at the Nursing In Practice conference in Birmingham last week. Some nurses ‘cannot afford’ to work in general practice www.nursinginpractice.com/latest-news/...

Nurses in General Practice face an even worse fate. Many not on AfG & have poorer pay & only stat mat & sick pay. Losing experienced GPNs will result in poorer patient care and outcomes www.york.ac.uk/news-and-eve... bmcprimcare.biomedcentral.com/articles/10....

Nursing in Practice survey makes intersting reading & aligns with #GenRet Study findings www.nursinginpractice.com/latest-news/...

Lovely time @theqni.bsky.social ceremony today. Proud to be a Queen’s Nurse

I'd like to read this, but all my energy is currently being taken up by trying to close a low-risk staff study and the bureaucracy entailed therein, so I've not got time.

Personal continuity was viewed as being provided by the entire #GeneralPractice team, not just by the patient's own GP. Optimising personal continuity for older patients should focus on strengthening the team-based provision of personal continuous care doi.org/10.3399/BJGP...

Great sessions at THIS Space 2024. Looking forward to more in the afternoon especially 'What's the problem with access to general practice?' @thisinstitute.bsky.social #patientsafety

If you're in the North East, I am giving a University of Newcastle Public Lecture next Thursday, Curtis Auditorium, 530pm, on Inclusive Health, talking about how we can include disabled people.
