Happy #ahpday to all my fellow AHPs. Showcasing quality working - a year of training at our Community Healthcare Hub. Today the unveiling of an information board to help cement the knowledge gained. #proudoftheprogress #AHPsDay2024 @SLT_LTHTR @SamanthaDenman2 @CHH_finneyhouse

Loving the summary in the short list awards brochure. Nice to have AHPs mentioned in such detail in advance of AHP day #AHPday2024 #feelingproud @SLT_LTHTR @CHH_finneyhouse

The boys having a great time drawing along with #phoenixfest2024 @neillcameron we have a new donut Rainbow Mayhem!

@jamiesmart @Usborne Aw I loved murder on the midnight plane as a kid, and recently found it in a charity shop I was soooo excited to be able to share it with my 9 year old (ps him and his little bro love your books). X

At the Nibbies I met the lovely Christian from @Usborne, and told him how much I loved Escape From Blood Castle. This morning a package of classic Usborne puzzle books turned up, along with some new ones, and a letter from Blood Castle author/genius Jenny Tyler herself! 🤩

Fabulous opportunity for any of my SLT friends interested in Neonatal Dysphagia.

A rare opportunity for anyone with an interest in Neonatal Dysphagia! We are a Level 3 neonatal unit and also have a Videofluoroscopy service. Please get in touch if you have any questions. @LancsHospJobs @SLT_LTHTR apps.trac.jobs/job-advert/631…

Feel the need to share after seeing a patient this week who had been prescribed thickener by their GP without an SLT assessment, and no guidance on how thick to make the drinks (family had been ‘sprinkling’ it in). Turns out with some SLT advice/strategies he can manage thin!! 🫤

@neillcameron @phoenixcomicuk @DFB_storyhouse Any chance you might be doing an event in the northwest? My son is so keen to attend but we just can’t make it to the ones you’re at in the south.

I made a TOUR page on my website so you can find all the places I'll be doing events this year! Loads more dates TBA soon! neillcameron.com/tour

Happy 75th Birthday NHS! Just had a dawning realisation I have worked for the NHS for almost a third of its life 🤯. For all the ups and downs, I couldn’t think of anywhere I’d rather work.

Lovely advice from @RCSLT
