This evening I had the privilege of attending @ScotParl. Celebrating 135 yrs of #QueensNurses @QNI_Scotland. Showcasing the phenomenal work done by QNs. Also got a sneaky peak of the chamber 😬 thanks to @CNOScotland and all the MSPs @DMS_MilMed @DMS_DPHC_Comd @SharonFindlay6

Give this team a massive👏👏, they have completed the @SuperheroTri!! Getting DMRC patients to an event like this takes a lot of focused rehab & behind the scenes activity but they have smashed it. We could not be prouder of this group!! 💜Donate here: justgiving.com/page/complex-…

It was an absolute delight to be back at St Mawgan yesterday to see DG open the new medical centre, part of the Culdrose Combined Practice. It was also wonderful to catch up for a cream tea with my dear friend Dr Liz Cohen. #jamfirst @ClareWaltonRAF @DMS_MilMed @RAFStMawgan

This is a great little bit of work by some of our Foundation Doctors in Defence. NHS GP posts are increasingly hard for Defence to access, but what are the pros and cons to doing #MilitaryGP in F2?

As many will know, I now formally hand over responsibility for leading the brilliant team at Defence Primary Healthcare to my friend Surgeon Commodore Andy Nelstrop. It has been an honour to serve alongside so many committed people. Armed Forces Health is in very good hands.

So good to see members of the @ArmyMedServices and @RoyalNavy Medical Services on the pitch today at the #ArmyNavy #Rugby @DMS_MilMed. Sport is such an important part of the ethos of the armed forces and the medical services. The ability to dig deep and keep going is essential.
