Well done C5 & C6 working collaboratively with a focus on the reduction in avoidable falls ππ
This week, we're sharing Quality Improvement (QI) work our staff on Ward C5 and C6 at Grimsby have been doing around reducing avoidable falls in the over 65s. The video below has information about how you can support your loved ones by making sure they have comfortable clothes.

Please watch and share @AlzResearchUKβs powerful new campaign film, voiced by the wonderful Olivia Colman. Dementia devastates lives, but research can and will change the ending for everyone affected by this heartbreaking condition. I stand #ForACure

Last month there were 12,039 attendances at our emergency departments (A&E).
Of these, more than 60 percent were 'minor' cases.
Help us to help you - call 111 or use their online service if you need medical attention and it's not an emergency.

We're looking for an amazing Children's Nurse to become our next Senior Sister for the Paediatric Emergency Nursing Team.
Could that be you?
We can't recommend this team of skilled nurses highly enough, & the brilliant Paeds & ED teams we work alongside!

With a new Emergency Department in Grimsby twice the size of our old one, and another being built in Scunthorpe, we needed more staff - so we've been recruiting.
Many of the staff we need are here and ready to go and we have more coming from overseas too.

A simple request - share this far and wide, to everyone you know, and ask them to share if further still, so that there's no hiding place for anyone involved in the murder of little Olivia.
We need names.
Silence is not an option.
