Getting some teaching sessions from our ACCP on the nightshift. Great to get these in-house sessions for all staff when we can. Also some mini nurse-led sessions on haemofiltration, BLS and infusion pumps this week. @AberdeenICUEdu @PaddonHelen 🖊📖

Kairen's amazing book chronicles the stories of the NHS Grampian heroes who have gone so many extra miles during the various COVID waves. Utterly amazing work by everyone and I couldn't put it down. Thank you from a very humble patient who is privileged to make an appearance!
