I left nursing in 1991 when poor staffing on the neonatal unit I worked on scared me so much I thought babies would die as a result. How has this been allowed to continue for sooooo long despite numerous reports highlighting the issue???
3/4 “2 in 3 staff feel unable to carry out their jobs fully due to workforce shortages”. Staff on the ground are being let down by the poor state of maternity services. Underfunded services mean a workforce experiencing burn out.

Today we've launched a new requirement that all applicants must demonstrate how their research will address existing inequalities in health and social care as a condition of funding. Applicants will now be required to show how inclusion is being built into all stages of the research lifecycle. nihr.ac.uk/news/inclusion-no…

Congratulations Sarah on this belated and much deserved promotion.
I am delighted to share the news that I have been promoted to Associate Professor 🥳
Some of you will know that I was rejected on the first attempt of going for this promotion. The time that followed was incredibly tough. It took a lot to pick myself back up & go again.

Midwives urgently needed!
If you talk with parents about possible planned late preterm or early term delivery please consider taking part in an interview - we have spoken with drs and parents but need to hear from midwives too.

Obstetricians and midwives:
Recruitment to our study about parental input to decisions about possible planned late preterm or early term birth has now re-opened after the festive break.
We would love to hear your views and experiences.
