Just had any #T1D #Diabetes review which thankfully was very good. Finally put on the waiting list for a pump to then be told it’s a 3-5year waiting list! Another case of money before patients 😔

Flu activity has risen unusually early this season, with many cases seen in teens & younger children. 📈 If you've received a consent form from your child’s school for their free NHS nasal flu vaccine, don’t forget to sign it, pack it & hand it back to your child’s school. 🏫📝

🚨🚨 Early warning for flu A season in the northern hemisphere. I would recommend you get a flu vaccine early this year.
🚨Confirmed flu A cases here have grown by 400% in three weeks. 👀 We may be in for a *very hard* and potentially early flu season. Watch this week's flu and covid surveillance report very closely. 👀

I am being VERY brave. Thanks @MarkoNotPolo15 for bringing my flu jab to my office! People with #mentalillness are more susceptible to vaccine preventable diseases and have worse outcomes. Let's get us AND our patients ready for winter #getjabbed @rcpsych @DrLadeSmith

The flu isn’t always “just the flu.” Did you know the flu can be the start of sepsis? When the body’s response to infection, like influenza (flu), spirals out of control, it can trigger sepsis, a life-threatening emergency. Early symptoms like fever, chills, and fatigue may look like the flu, but if symptoms worsen rapidly, sepsis could be starting. 🚨 Know the signs. Trust your instincts. Speak up if something feels wrong. This #SepsisAwarenessMonth, help us spread the word: 👉 The flu can lead to sepsis. 👉 Early recognition saves lives. Learn more about sepsis at SepsisAwarenessMonth.org. Learn more about the flu at FamiliesFightingFlu.org. @famfightflu #TheStartOfSepsis #StopSepsis #FluSeason #SepsisAwareness #KnowTheSigns

Hi @wesstreeting. This is how our specialist nurses are feeling. These nurses are vital to individuals living with chronic conditions like #Type1Diabetes. The crumbling NHS will soon be dust on your watch. #GBDoc
2 days back at work after 2weeks off. Honestly it’s not worth having time off anymore. I feel like I have been run over by a bus & dragged for 5 miles! NHS is on its knees; just constantly making staff redundant. We actually have nobody & no money to do any work anymore!

What is #WhoopingCough? The first signs can look like a cold, and although some babies and adults don't make the characteristic 'whoop' it's important to be able to recognise it. Know the signs & symptoms and how it's treated: bit.ly/4dpjs3h
