It was such an honour to win a Woman of the Year campaigner for health equity award yesterday! An incredible day, and I’m so grateful to everyone I’ve worked with over the last 20+ years.

I love the idea of inviting someone back to yours after a blind date, this is your living room, and you say nothing at all

When I was CD I fought like mad for us to keep our Day Hospital.
It was a cornerstone of outpatient, CGA, SDEC, MDT therapy and admission avoidance all in one.
That was 15 years ago.
Very short-sighted 🤷🏻‍♂️
I envy those units across the UK who were fortunate enough to retain theirs.

We don't have any day hospital for older people at NCANHSFT. Used to be one at least at Salford site. Do you have one?

Many a day hospital in my experience ceased to exist in service reconfigurations.

Why oh why did we ever get rid of day hospitals for older people? With little to replace....

With increasing pressure on budgets and demand, neighbourhood health services need better approaches. At today’s Moving Care Closer to Home event at The King’s Fund, we’re exploring inspiring examples, and you can read more in our blog.

Oh no! Hope wait not too long! Get well soon. Ps don't know your age. But in my book not old until 80 or above! At 51 I'd officially be recruited to research studies in the older person category 😅
