This seems bad for staff and patients www.businessinsider.com/uber-for-nur... bid to the bottom devalues nursing and suggests that skills and experience aren't important. Also makes it less likely you will end up in the same place multiple times because you're not a name your a box

Not that I actually expect much from @thesun.co.uk but if you're going to put a list of recommended gifts at the bottom of the article do make sure they aren't the gifts the article says people hate 🤦‍♀️ www.thesun.co.uk/fabulous/324...

Today started off as 1 of those days when you wonder why you love this job. But actually by the end it turned into a decent day, although maybe I have just gone manic!

Government has the power to improve nursing pay, but right now the UK govt has suggested only funding a 2.8% pay increase for NHS staff in England next year. We say the PRB process is outdated. It's time for direct negotiations on pay. Agree? Sign our open letter: buff.ly/3VDEkfN

As someone with multimorbidity I prefer 'work' to 'burden', it's not always a burden, it's just my life, and actually there are good things. Increased ability to self-advocate. Specialist and personalised knowledge. Resilience. Persistence. Empathy. I wouldn't be the same person without my MM.

Oops missed Day 5

Was my first week back to fulltime last week...and I am still exhausted, but back in again tomorrow. Shifts were particularly heavy ones tbh, so think only part of it is about my health. Was in charge with patients on Saturday and Sunday, and Saturday is assessment day so always busy.

So upsetting that this is becoming normal. Having to worry about patient's oxygen because they are using cannisters. A patient left in urine soaked clothes because there is nowhere for personal care. Unable to do an essential ECG because there is no wall socket. A few of the issues 😪 #CorridorCare

Been looking up research on nursing checklists and came across one about humanist ICU nursing, as in a checklist for nurses to communicate with their patients. It seems that it made patients more satisfied, but it also seems sad and fake to have this as a checklist pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37551195/

Abstracts authored by all-female teams are less likely to get accepted for presentation at economics conferences than those authored by all-male teams, even after adjusting for the authors’ prior track records and institutional prestige

If this really happens, and they do a full shift it could be interesting. Just so long as they get an 'average' person to follow, shadowing a matron, for example, would give a different picture to a staff nurse

My most recent blog for @thercn.bsky.social Newly-Registered Network looked as speaking up as a NRN. Some of our discussions with members have suggested that this is an area where being an NRN can make things more difficult.

This is absolutely insane. What are you meant to do if the time runs out? Stop operating and finish in a 'new' surgery later? Leave patiemt with a bill for the 'extra' time? Or just not do the surgery because the patient can't afford to pay if it goes over?

Next Wednesday! Please share with any NRN or StN colleagues/friends who may be interested #NurseSky @thercn.bsky.social
