#Proactivecare
is there any evidence?

@gerisoc.bsky.social has produced a playbook for clinicians and commissioners working with #olderpeople

Authored by BGS Past President and recent NHSE Special advisor Eileen Burns, it’s a must read

Asking "What Matters to you?" will drive the change in moving care closer to home. Shift from hospital not only improves quality but saves money. @sheffielddoc.bsky.social @gerisoc.bsky.social #BGSConf #ChooseGeriatrics

Positive disruption to what has become the norm in nursing is what is needed right now. I am really looking forward to the new council and what it will achieve! With people like @leannehpatrick.bsky.social and @alisonleary1.bsky.social and many more integral members, change must be on the horizon! 🧡

I'm looking forward to beginning my term on council with the Royal College of Nurses in Jan.

The RCN needs to be formidable in its pursuit of respect for nurses or we will continue to lose them.

There is no health system, and no healthcare, without nurses.
