From next week, a new hospital will open to provide support for thousands more patients with #coronavirus. Based at @ExCeLLondon, NHS Nightingale will provide up to 500 beds equipped with ventilators and oxygen — with capacity increasing if needed. england.nhs.uk/2020/03/new-n…
Quote from Chief Executive, Sir Simon Stevens: ‘Under these exceptionally challenging circumstances the NHS is taking extraordinary steps to fight coronavirus. That's why NHS clinicians and managers are working with military planners and engineers to create, equip, staff and open the NHS Nightingale London, and we're very grateful for their support.’

There’s a lot of misinformation doing the rounds about #coronavirus, so it’s important you get your information from a trusted source. Visit nhs.uk/coronavirus to find out what the symptoms are, how to prevent the spread, and who should stay at home. #COVID19 🤒✋💧🏠

As part of the @NHSYouthForum I'm working on improving my local Primary Care Network for young people through engaging them in a variety of ways. It's so important to listen to young people's needs and making things fit for them to access services they need. @LiviButt @NikkiKF

If you work with young people, encourage them to engage in local health services, no matter their background. From hospital boards, local volunteering opportunities and focus groups. They have an important voice, please support them to use it! 🗣

Young people have regularly-changing lives, such as moving across the country for work experience, or university. Do you think it should be possible for young people to register at two GP surgeries? Opinions welcome 💖
