⚠️ Our services are likely to be under significant pressure next week with both consultants and junior doctors taking planned industrial action. If you need medical help that is non-life-threatening, use your nearest urgent treatment centre.

Today's #WorldPatientSafetyDay focuses on the importance of engaging patients for patient safety. The role of patients, their families and carers and others, working with healthcare staff, is vital to making care safer, and a key part of the NHS Patient Safety Strategy.

17 Sept is #WorldPatientSafetyDay, with the theme ‘engaging patients for patient safety’. We will be sharing a range of content this week, highlighting the importance of this, and how the NHS is working in partnership with patients, families and carers to make care safer.

Great second session filming for our PSIRF video today with @gailbyrneuhs taking centre stage and fabulous performances from @BrainTumourSurg and @howdoyoufika last week. And the lens didn't break when I did my bit 😀


Took me a moment .... 🤣🤣🤣


We did it. Our first indoor skydive. We won’t be taking it up as a hobby.

Disappointing to hear that the hospital where my mum died threw away her necklace with her clothes after she died. They need to read @LucyGoBag book on the value of personal property to relatives no matter how seemingly insignificant

ℹ️ The junior doctor's strike starts today and runs to Tuesday 18 July. It will put services under additional pressure. We will prioritise those with the highest need. If it's not a life-threatening emergency, please go to 111.nhs.uk
