Travelling to Westminster to meet with Minister Stephen Kinnock, Rosa Monckton & Jim Blair to address the RNLD workforce crisis. People with LD have a right to equitable care yet their RNLDs are in managed decline: - 44% with 1/2 HEI programs closed preventing growth #RNLDcrisis #RightToHealth

Very excited for the presale release of New Notes on Nursing- Successful Clinical Placements.
I hope our StN/ RNLD & RNMH colloboration and expertise will support others in "Using Evidence Base Practice to inform Clinical Practice"
