“I honestly can’t see how any family would be able to navigate #dementia without an Admiral Nurse. Jody provided us with practical and emotional support. She was a lifesaver for mum." 💙

I've signed Dementia UK's letter to party leaders urging them to put dementia on the agenda this election. Tell politicians that to win votes, they must lead the way in transforming dementia care. Add your name now! @DementiaUK #PutDementiaOnTheAgenda action.dementiauk.org/sign-l…

Apart from the fact that #moralinjury is an important topic & I hope people will join in, it's also great to see this "Moral injury for nurse leaders" intervention properly set out in a theory of change diagram. Every change intervention should have a collectively constructed ToC
How can leaders move from understanding to taking action on #moralinjury? Join the @dementiauk Twitter Space on 26/1/23 at 17:30 to find out more: nitter.cf/i/spaces/1lDxLnQyLLyGm
