#Halloween today and we hope anyone enjoying it has a fangtastic time!

We also think it's the petrifyingly perfect time to mention a book on cannulation for #FridayReads - it's witchful thinking if you thought making these terrible puns wasn't in our blood!

Last night we made the local news!

Calendar covered a small exhibition at Diana, Princess of Wales Hospital run by NHS Humber Health Partnership showcasing a nurses story from the 50s.

We would love to add to this collection. Even in the digital era, human stories connect people.

Reminder for NLaG, HUTH and all NHS Humber Health Partnership staff as well as anybody in the wider #NHS -

When it gets hot out there staying hydrated is critical for self-care. We need to look after ourselves so we can look after others. ☀️

Libraries Week: Libraries Change Lives 2025.
Today is all about evidence.
Last year NLaG's Library and Knowledge Services saved staff over £17, 404.20 by carrying out evidence searches for them. Time that was used to care for more patients, lead improvements and support colleagues.

Libraries Week: Libraries Change Lives 2025. 
Up to 71% of our patients struggle to understand health information when it contains words and numbers., which can lead to increased hospital admissions and low use of preventative services... it also accounts for around 5% of NHS spending.
