Ashover Ward

Recruitment event in full sing - come down and see us! Were interviewing for potential nurses & hca’s to join us on Ashover. A great team to work with 💙 #recruitmentday #CRH #wewishyouworkedhere #proudtocare

Thank you Ashover ward for the past 4 years - I came newly qualified and am leaving a sister. I couldn’t of asked for a better team of people to work alongside, you are all 1 in a million - love Bex ❤️❤️❤️

Great engagement from staff @ashover_team on our first Tissue Viability Ward Walks. Discussion around use of pressure prevention surfaces and when to escalate and de-escalate equipment. #stopthepressure . @CRH_Pearson coming to you Thursday

Day 1!! Are all of your patients belongings in reach?? Them ‘leaning’ to reach for things can offset balance, in a chair, on the bed and in standing! Make sure all personal items are within reach as best as you can! 👜👓🦻🏼🥤📰🖊📖📱⌚️🎒 #CRHRiskmasCountdown

Lest we forget #proudtocare

Had some time to start our falls awareness board today - adding Ashover’s falls data for this past few months. Our main issue is supervised bays - where possible & staffing allows we aim to have a HCA per bay to help prevent falls & give supervision where needed #fallsprevention

Getting into the spirit of Halloween 🎃👻🎃

The weather’s getting colder, so we thought our patients needed a hot chocolate treat…..covid friendly. #treat #thelittlethings #caring

A few lovely messages for Team A #proudtocare

Sharing valuable information with all who pass by on the corridor. #dementia #sharing #knowledge

And we can always find time for an ABBA sing song 🎤

We’ve had an amazing day on Ashover ward today, great team work & atmosphere.. even time for a few 10 minute make overs, beard gone & hair washed. Consent gained 😍 love to see a happy face.

Big shout out to @ashover_team for reducing their falls last month! For a ward that has patients with very complex needs at times this is an amazing result to be proud of! Well done! @royal_acute @rachywhyman @CRHMedicineDiv 🎉🎉

A big shout out to Oliver Rowett, an LICP1 placement on Ashover ward. Oliver has been nominated as student of the week for ward team integration. Well done 🤩 and thank you to the Ashover Team.

Our lovely medical student Oliver, always willing to get stuck in, nothing is too much trouble & a breath of fresh air on the ward 🥰💙 @KimCastelluccio

@staceybnurse @HPottinger @SallyAnnWilson2 Thank you so much!! We appreciate everything 🥰

So today along with my fantastic volunteers we covered 3 wards to support the nurses with meals thank you all for giving your time @HPottinger @SallyAnnWilson2 and others #Everylittlehelps

Well we had a feathered friend helping to hand out ice cream treats on Ashover today……and there was even enough to take to our neighbouring wards. Be more kind 🥰 #randomactsofkindness #smile @royal_acute @genmedCRH @CRHSpecialtyMed

Thank you @staceybnurse for coming to help dish out lunches today, really helps us out due to the amount of our patients who need assistance with meals & very much appreciated 🥰 - you’re a star.

We’ve done it before, we can do it again!! We are ALL family. #thinkingofeveryone #teamwork @royal_acute @CRHSpecialtyMed @genmedCRH 🥰
