We have to re-name DNACPR to something more digestible like “Allow Natural Death” it would help shift viewpoints and difficult conversations with families

ULHT team of the week is our very own Oncology Assessment Unit 🎉 we are so proud of our team. Avoiding hospital admissions where possible for our cancer patients. A well needed and well used service. Stay tuned for stats since our opening in winter 2019 #cancerservices

Scanxiety is real!!! Supporting patients who are awaiting scan results, especially within an acute oncology circumstance can always be a challenge 💚
I wonder if patients know that their #oncologists also get #scanxiety the day before follow up clinic? We are also desperate to know if you responded to treatment, if you’re in remission, or if we need to have the difficult conversation about what comes next.

I want EVERY cancer patient to read this article. I want them to know that it’s not their fault. They shouldn’t blame themselves for not finding it earlier. We need more money for #stage4 research. Please RT and share ⁦#bekindtoyourself dailymail.co.uk/health/artic…

Today we said goodbye (with pizza and flowers)to our wonderful consultant who came back post retirement to support us through the pandemic. It was fabulous having her back on the team, she will be greatly missed but we hope she can now relax and enjoy once lockdown lifts!

A tribute to Tony Chadbourne It is with immense sadness that we announce that EMAS has lost a hugely valued and dedicated colleague this week to COVID-19. Tony Chadbourne devoted 23 years to working in the ambulance service. Our tribute is published here: emas.nhs.uk/news/latest-news…
