Patients being treated in corridors is widespread, but it must not be normalised.

If you're having to deliver care in inappropriate settings, raising a concern with your employer will help protect you and your patients.

What do you do if you’re taken to hospital in an emergency, but you’re worried about your pets?
Patient liaison officers Emma Dodd and Maxine Intrieri at William Harvey Hospital are a new team on hand for issues just like this, working as a bridge between clinical teams, patients and their families.

Day 2 equally fabulous @cliffreid.bsky.social
Very challenging to think about how we negotiate when your patients life depends on it, and there's a difference in opinion and management.
How to negotiate without adding conflict in the team, that would lead to pt harm 🩸🩸

NHS short staffing associated with at least 4,000 extra deaths annually.

High staff turnover & reliance on agency workers lead to severe consequences, esp. in A&Es.

Stable, well-staffed workforce needed for patient safety & quality care #ResuscitateEmergencyCare
