A team of colleagues who care for premature babies are walking their way between winter wonderlands to make hospital visits better for families this Christmas and beyond.
We have listened to what you have told us about our NHSP incentives. We plan to make some changes with effect from 1 December. This will replace all of our current schemes and includes shifts worked today. We will review things again at the end of January.
We have created a new Medicines Finder. This will allow staff to search Omnicell and Ward stocks and help you to locate medicines across both South Tyneside and Sunderland Hospital sites.
Due to current operational pressures and increased pressure in the Emergency Departments (ED), HCA shifts have been added to the allocate on arrive NHSP ward rosters. Staff who pick up these shifts will work in the Emergency Department and support the team with ambulance handovers.
Please see details for the next level 6 & 7 Care of the Older Person (COTE) module at Sunderland University. Applications are now open.
After 245 entries the winners have now been drawn. Well done everyone and look out for our January quiz to win a brilliant best seller!
We have just been made aware of the following unfortunate disruptions to Sunderland Metro/rail travel.
