Not sure why @itv has started putting adverts on during the #SixNations2026 #rugby play breaks but I do not like it. I want to hear the ref, discussion & understand what is happening not seeing random ads! Please stop!

Treating #iron deficiency before #anaemia occurs is essential for a good quality of life. Recognising the influence of inflammation on the body's ability to absorb iron & taking a full view and treating is important #EAHAD2026

How we ask about bleeding is likely to provide us different outcomes, by going through individual sites & asking about #bruising as well as bleeding we can be a good way of establishing the true picture of #bleeding? #EAHAD2026

Great to catch the latter part of the joint nurse & psychosocial session on #distress in #bleedingdisorders at #EAHAD2026 Frequently the HTC will be a safe place & staff will recognise signs of distress before others due to knowing the individual or family so well. Check in!

This is really good news. Its concerning that in the UK anyone can call themselves a nurse and offer nursing services even if they have no qualifications, have been struck off or convicted
