You cannot make an ICU nurse overnight! They need experiential experience with continuous theoretical education! We need to invest now to retain & recruit ICU nurses for the coming yrs! ⁦@BACCNUK⁩ ⁦@credland_nicki⁩ ⁦@CNOEngland⁩ ⁦@FICMNews⁩ ⁦@theRCN⁩

Social distancing works. The London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine estimate that before the lockdown one positive person would infect 2.6 other people. Now it's just 0.62. This means the virus is cornered - it has nowhere to go and will burn out. Good news.

Today is my birthday, not when I was born but received new life by heart transplant 17 years ago. Forever grateful to my donor and their family. I could hardly walk across a room, now I can run and cycle for miles on end. Take time to be thankful for what you got. #organdonation – at Glasgow, Scotland

If you are aged 16 or over, you will be considered a possible organ and tissue donor after you die - unless you opt out. Whatever your decision, make sure it's known. Visit organdonationscotland.org

Spending time with family over half-term? Why not chat to them about your organ donation decision. Whether you choose to opt in or opt out, letting your family know means they can honour your decision.
