Nursing is a privilege & a pleasure, but it's also a responsibility that can be both physically & emotionally challenging. That's why it's so important today, & every day following, you & your colleagues take time to look after your own mental health. #WorldMentalHealthDay 1/2

To say I am beyond proud is an understatement! I don’t think the teams will ever be able to describe all the challenges they faced but they did it together, supported each other and put the patients first. Amazing! @YSTeachingNHS @1972MichaelH @ceadunn @ASawyerYork

Well done to the Covid wards, chosen as our Team of the Year, sponsored by @Portakabin_R! Against a backdrop of fear, uncertainty and unprecedented pressures to provide the best possible care for patients, the Covid wards stayed positive despite the many challenges they faced.
