I live a block away from an asylum hotel and a block up the road from a hostel for single male refugees. Iโve never experienced any problems, folks are just people like any other.
Replying to @BenAllenGP
I lived next door to an asylum seeker house for 8 years.
I did so with my young family, and while we were fostering babies.
We lived next door to many men from Afghanistan, Somalia and other countries.
We had no problems. 2/6
"Would you like 6 Afghan men living next door to you?
On Radio 4 @LeeAndersonMP_ continued
โYou would accept it? Would you kick off about it? Would you think it was a good thing to happen?
The answer is "No"
Nobody in the country wants that"
Well speaking from experienceโฌ๏ธ 1/6

This is genius. Trust CEO @TobyLewis_NHS interviews local ICB CEO Chris Edwards and puts on on YouTube.
It is great to get a sense of who people in management are, what they do and put faces to names.
Very @rdash_nhs. Thanks

โญOur story of discovering the 'Social Determinants of Health'โญ
Our GP surgery had high staff turnover, low morale, and poor patient satisfaction.
Nowโฆ
As a place to work, staff scored us 9.4/10
Would you recommend our surgery to friends & family? Staff scored us 9.7/10

We still have a long way to go! There was more sweat, tears and failure than the paper may have given voice to.
Interested to hear peoples reflections! 7/7
Great to hear the focus on our values last week from @TobyLewis_NHS
One of the highlights of joining RDaSH has been seeing the values that attracted me to to RDaSH are being lived out.
This requires intentionality, operationalisation and reinforcement. Great to see it here.
Hereโs this weekโs video message from @TobyLewis_NHS our Chief Executive. Take a look โฆ #NHS #NLincsisgreat #rotherhamiswonderful #doncasterisgreat @mydoncaster

โญLast week I had the privilege of visiting The Wellness Centre, home of the People Focussed Groupโญย
The Wellness Centre is, quite frankly, a bit of heaven.
At least how I picture it.... 1/11
PFG bring a deep understanding of the local, social reality of peoples lives, the living experience, as well as a grasp of what our dignified patients can do for themselves. 10/11
