My lovely Uncle Sammy Munien left us yesterday 😢
There are some people who are placed in our lives by chance & some who are there on purpose - he was both.
Spend more time with your loved ones because everything else is actually just noise.

We can never know the whole of someone’s story - so ask. If the person you’re caring for can’t inform you, ask the family who can help you to make decisions that they would want to make for themselves. Do not strip someone of their dignity and identity when they need it most 3/3

It means my mother and I cannot be there purely as his family in our last little while with him, but fighting every step. I am so sorry for any family or individuals who do not know how good care should and can be. Who helps them make decisions or ask for support? 2/3 🧵

To all my fellow nurses and healthcare professionals, whatever the shift, whoever the individual in your care, please, Please, PLEASE care with dignity and respect. The lack of consideration I’ve had to witness for my father these last weeks is mind blowing 1/3 🧵

'No student paramedic should ever have to feel unsafe or vulnerable whilst on placement, and this ideology about it being ‘part of the ambulance culture’ is simply outdated, unacceptable and nothing short of harrowing says' College of Paramedics

Instead of repeating racist B.S - we need to show Diane Abbott MP the full love and respect she deserves. That’s all. #blackwomenappreciationday

Any black woman with a public profile understands the armour of steel you have to wrap around yourself to simply do your job. The threats and abuse go hand in hand with turning up to work. So, it’s a problem when what is clearly racism & abuse is defended 1/

Happy colonisers-gave-us-back-our-land day!

So much of supposed purity & decency has nothing to do with character or being a good human & more to do with colonialism, racism, and the erasure of black & indigenous culture. It’s no wonder so many women are sexually repressed, restricted & struggle to freely access pleasure.

No Justice, no peace. Our thoughts are with the family today and on this long journey ahead.

The first data collection is almost upon us in Wales. And from the start the Welsh WRES will present intersectional data. The experience of ethnic minority women, especially international trained staff, will be presented to drive accountable change. #IWD 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Do you believe there is somebody who needs to be recognised in the medical profession for providing leadership, influence and dedication?

To celebrate #InternationalWomensDay we will be celebrating and sharing inspirational women between 8th March - 10th March.

A little bop for us all to enjoy as we take a moment for #InternationalWomensDay
Have a great day everyone!
