"If our planet were a being, it would've expressed its emotion by saying enough is enough." Ebenezer Yeboah's impassioned plea at #RCN24 for a greener health service was followed by similar calls from fellow @theRCN West Mids members @HarmonyOwhotake, @lucy_uo and @KelvinOssai.

"If you know that it's going to come back to haunt you, don't use social media." Our @theRCN West Midlands member @KelvinOssai highlights the risks of social media at #RCN24 Congress after saying it also helped him to find his current job.

Discussing the future of @theRCN boards and branches at #RCN24 Congress this afternoon, our West Midlands board member @MariaArthur888 highlighted how workplace committees could have a place in the College governance structure, to promote connections at local levels.

Love this, ‘the unseen’ are patients, they are not unseen, rather we are not looking.’ Nurses are looking, speaking up and standing up to redress the needs of this patient group. Nurses see you. @RCNWestMids @RCNBlackCountry @RWT_NHS @WalsallHcareNHS

Please don't suffer in silence. There is 𝗮𝗹𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 somebody that will listen.

I wanted the first piece that I posted in 2024 to be hopeful, practical & profound. So I chose @adamkahane 's recent article on radical collaboration. Radical collaboration is about working together with diverse others from across the system in a way that fundamentally transforms that system. It not only focuses on the good & harmony of the whole, but also embraces conflict & power issues. We need radical collaboration as system leaders to create the relational conditions (affordances) for the big changes ahead: jabsc.org/index.php/jabsc/ar…
