This is despicable 😢

I wondered if they employed RNLDs, the posts advertised are for registered nurses, not specialists. There are not enough LD Nurses to fill posts. We need to save this branch of nursing, provide high quality care and save lives.

I got the East of England covered. We need Daniel Marsden and @stevehardyldn.bsky.social on it for Kent!

On the back of the RCN congress perhaps they can promote this petition?

Looking forward to today’s #LDSymp7 lots of great speakers.

So happy to see you here where the skies are blue! 🦋 Welcome!! 🤗

The new commitment document is fairly imminent so you’ll be able to see the national plans then. Obviously our EoE #chooseLDNursing group has a clear action plan. See you at the next meeting on 10th for regional updates. 😊
