It’s a beautiful morning at HRI as we prepare to welcome you to our public open day for our new A&E!
Chief Nurse, Lindsay Rudge's message to visitors planning on seeing friends or family in hospital.
Happy #WorldHandHygieneDay everybody. Key messages: • #handhygiene works and reduces #hcai and #amr • think about technique - coverage is key • look after your hands (moisturise often) • be a positive role model for others • and finally…do you really need those gloves?!
Are you an IPCN ready for a new challenge? Senior post closing date 03/04/23 jobs.cht.nhs.uk/job/UK/West_Yo…
If you are coming to visit a loved one your face mask must be worn for the duration of the visit and not removed. This is is to protect them and others patients. Please don't visit if you are unwell. Children under the age of 16 aren't allowed to visit right now. Thank you!
Just had someone ask me “what kind of adult wears pyjamas?!” so can we get a retweet from every adult currently enjoying their pyjamas please?

NEW Reflections post: 'No CPE but a lot of VRE'. A screen of all inpatients in a large UK hospital has found no CPE but 24% of 540 patients carrying VRE. So, why no CPE but so much VRE? reflectionsipc.com/2019/03/28/no-…

All the hard work is becoming a reality. So excited to open our new department and share it with our patients #Teamwork #TeamCHFT #TeamED #Transformation @CHFTNHS @EDCHFT1 @Davidbritton83
It's been years in the making, but here's the build of our new A&E in just 60 seconds. ⏱️🏗️🚑 It's due to open very soon - stay tuned for news of the official opening date!
So looks like I'll be keeping this uniform for the foreseeable! So proud to be part of the Matron team @CHFTNHS 💙❤️
Onwards to Halifax and @ThePieceHall. Expect a longer set, extra bangers and more of the good stuff x
@juniordrtruths 100%, but trust your nurses! Especially in specialised areas, we know the patients, we know the drugs and we’ve probably seen it before! If we are worried, you should be too.
Today, our Maternity and Women’s Services teams took time out to celebrate 75 years of the NHS with a Big Tea. It was time to reflect on all we achieve each day whilst looking after each other too (oh, and to demonstrate their baking skills 😉) @CHFTNHS #onecultureofcare
Super proud to have been elected. Can’t wait to have the first meeting and meet my fellow colleagues. Thank you all who voted for me. @ChftDigital @CHFTNHS @RudgeLindsay @thisnhs

Today marks the start of Colleague Appreciation Week at CHFT. The flags will be raised at CRH and HRI main entrances at 4.45pm. If you're passing, stop by. It's a beautiful sunny day and we'd love to see you. Events on all week and colleagues can share thanks on the intranet.
Such a fantastic way to capture the learning, values, and collaboration at CHFTs conference at The University of Huddersfield. Many thanks to @JennyLeonardArt for the fabulous live illustration and @CHFTNHS and @Hud_HHS for an inspiring day #FutureNurseAndMidwife23
