β€œI’ve never had such helpful and positive communication with healthcare professionals before today…” What a compliment from a relative of a patient seen by the @SwbhFIT today at @SWBHnhs ❀️ #frailty #mdt #cga #teamworkmakesthedreamwork

Our trusty green bag got an outing this afternoon for a #DischargeToAssess visit to review bed transfers and mobility. The power of someone’s own home showed yet again with her independence and absolutely no need for care! Her words - β€œoh I would have hated that!” #smilesallround

Today marks 10 years working as a Speech & Language Therapist and working in the NHS! Learnt a lot and seen some big changes in that time as well as meeting some incredible people. Also means I'm nearly 2 years back at @swb_slt @ibedsSWBH after starting my career here.

I had the privilege of seeing one of your therapists talking to a patient in our very busy ED on Tuesday. The care and attention she gave above the noise and the bustle trying to make the lady feel like she was the only patient that mattered. This really is an exceptional team.
Amazing example of why its important to check your patients have their hearing aids in ESPECIALLY in a noisy ED department… β€œAt home do you still use a Zimmer frame?” β€œYes the carers come and dinner time” πŸ™ˆπŸ˜‚ #communicationfail #wearareyourhearingaids #rrts #frontdoorfrailty
