Day 4 (last day of @rcn.org.uk Congress): lively debates on financial hardships for nursing and care planning.
It’s been a great #nursing Congress and had great company from Shona, Mark and Jonathan from the Forum.
Think we convinced some nurses that #Neurology was the specialty to be in!!!

GPs are an integral and essential part of any person’s journey with Parkinson’s. SpotlightYOPD have created a poster to help GP’s support their younger patients pre and post diagnosis.
Please do share with GP colleagues/ surgeries.

Had fab visit from @carolinerassell.bsky.social from
@parkinsons.org.uk in Plymouth this week. Sometimes it’s helpful to precise a situation out loud to a visitor to see where the strengths and challenges are. We rarely get the time to reflect. Lots of planning conversations afterwards!

I’m always a bit nervous just before a podcast…. Always worried that the dog will bark (she did), or I’ll say something ridiculous (probably did). Anyway, it was fabulous to talk about our charity SpotlightYOPD, and how collaborative working is key.
