According to the WHO, health is defined as “a state of complete physical, mental and social wellbeing and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity" but did you know that there is no universally agreed definition for ‘wellbeing’? That’s up to each one of us to ultimately define for ourselves.

Over the last 10 years more than 200 US maternity services have closed, mostly due to financial pressures and staffing challenges. Here’s a list of 36 from 2024. These closures create huge access to care problems for many pts.

And today, the BBC is reporting that they've just announced that women can no longer train as midwives 'until further notice' (which, by all accounts, means never) - this in the country that already has one of the worst maternal and infant mortality rates in the world. www.dw.com/en/taliban-o...

Two weeks after moving to the Midland Met, Stephen is settling in well at the new hospital.
Previously, he told us how he'd spent 50 years working at City Hospital, starting his role as a domestic aged just 16.
