Practice nurse with special interest in T2DM, weekend FPL obsession, dream of having time to read books.
I really hope the inclusion of practice nurses in the ARRS scheme comes to fruition. It’s about time their vital role in primary care is recognised and supported in a way that strengthens the whole team! #PracticeNurses #PrimaryCare #NurseSky

General practice nurses work hard to support patients and keep communities healthy. It’s time for our pay to be fair and reflect our commitment and expertise! #NurseSky #ValueGPNurses

General Practice Nursing staff play an essential role in delivering NHS services, but many of them still aren’t receiving the fair pay they deserve. We're campaigning to change that.

That nursing is a vocation. I think I’ll scream at the next person who says that. It’s not a vocation, it’s a highly skilled profession, and language like that is used to justify low pay. #NurseSky

Alright, I’ve officially given in and bought Salah. Spent the whole season pretending I didn’t need him, and now I’m just hoping he can work some point-scoring magic to make up for my denial 🙄 #FPL

Some great results from the NHS Path to Remission Programme, showing real progress with weight loss and diabetes remission using total diet replacement plans. But honestly, I’ve seen so many patients struggle to stick with it. How can we make this easier for them? #DiabetesCare #NurseSky
