Yes. The original Point of Care report, years ago, was very inspiring. I remember a lovely story from you, in a Round during lockdown, on planting flower bulbs for the future, facing grief. And the better news is that Rounds will continue, albeit licensed from elsewhere. @pointofcarefdn.bsky.social

Great to see this coming to fruition. There's lots to unpack from this model, but I particularly like the use of the infinity symbol to capture the dynamic and ongoing nature of the work. How these processes work in threaded or overlapping contexts / workstreams is a harder one to draw!

Harrowing testimonies in the RCN report reveal patients dying in corridors, CPR delayed by overcrowding, and nurses grappling with burnout and compassion fatigue.
Without critical funding to support staff, patient-centred care is impossible.
