@DarrylThompso16 @allofusinmind Congratulations @DarrylThompso16 ! I started my general nurse training 45 years ago this September and although I've changed direction, I still celebrate the fact nursing still attracts great people with a passion to help others.

I started my mental health nurse training 35 years ago today. In the midst of all the current challenges, nursing remains a unique and inspiring career to choose. And I feel very lucky to be continuing this journey with my fantastic colleagues @allofusinmind

A great "Coping with Pain" workshop last Friday, empowering people to manage the impact of chronic pain. A really positive session with powerful contributions from everyone 🥰
