𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗮 𝘀𝗶𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝟵𝟵𝟵 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹 📞 Did you know that by pressing 55 after calling 999 it will alert a police call handler that you are in need of urgent help but that you are unable to talk? 💭 Dialling 55 lets the call handler know your call is genuine. Even if you cannot speak, listen carefully to any questions or instructions from the call handler who can assess your call and arrange help. If you don’t respond or press 55, your call could be ended 🚨 This is important information which could help save someone’s life. Find out more about how to make a silent 999 call, here: derbyshire.police.uk/contact/how-to… #SaferAndStrongerTogether #DeliveringForDerbyshire #DerbyshireOPCC
Today we've launched a new requirement that all applicants must demonstrate how their research will address existing inequalities in health and social care as a condition of funding. Applicants will now be required to show how inclusion is being built into all stages of the research lifecycle. nihr.ac.uk/news/inclusion…
Oh yes, fantastic recognition of Michelle's contribution to community nursing and so, so much more.
I'm pleased we're hosting this event on diversity in midwifery. This initiative is vital for addressing inequalities in maternity and neonatal services and ensuring safety for all. We need a diverse workforce that is both skilled and capable of providing culturally sensitive care
