So proud to be the Occupational Therapist working with this great team. Together we recognise and appreciate the importance of safe but efficient discharges. 🏥➡️🏠
Great to catch up with the team on ward 406 and congratulate them on gaining bronze every day counts accreditation. A real team effort. Reducing delays in hospital and getting patients home as soon as possible has never been more important. Thank you 😊 @SueRoberts31

Spot on👏🏽
Healthcare workers may well be doing their job, doing what they’re ‘paid for’ but that doesn’t mean that this is an ordinary time and it doesn’t mean that this whole thing isn’t taking a physical and mental toll. 1/
