Another successful SIMMS day with the first group completing new scenarios of situations we encounter on Nightingale. Great verbal feedback from the group identifying the day as valuable for take away learning points that can be implemented in practice! 🩸 💉 🫁

Awesome f2f catch up with @HIS_infection for a trainee session led by @TimCJBoswell and Dr Shanom Ali. Theatre ventilation diagrams finally make more sense (could have done with this pre Part 2!) and also got to play with some environmental sampling kit!
