@TeamQEHSurgery @TeamQEH Thank you team for your strong leadership and dedication to the care of our patients and staff. You truly are a force to be reckoned with.

Scalpel got to spend time with the Matrons + Lead Nurses. They have come together this year to form a substantive team. They have have worked very closely as a team; sharing the work load and supporting each other. Scalpel was very sad that Judith had taken a day off 😢 @TeamQEH

@TeamQEHSurgery @TeamQEH Pleased to see that scalpel has discussed with the Elm ward team the important that they have achieved with their appraisals and mandatory training. This has been driven by the team work and leadership. Well done Elm for your outstanding team work.

Today Scalpel has been to Elm Ward. The staff are incredibly proud of the improvement in their mandatory training + appraisal compliance over the last year. The have also seen a reduction in falls having none in the last 2 months! Well done and thank you Elm Ward! @TeamQEH

@TeamQEHSurgery @TeamQEH Well done to the SAU team for their care and dedication that they have given to our surgical patients. Pleased that scalpel has seen how versatile and flexible the team can be. Well done everyone.

On Day 3 Scalpel made his way to the Surgical Assessment Unit (SAU). He was pleased to hear how they have maintained their consistently high standards of patient care despite staffing and capacity pressures. Well done and thank you SAU! @TeamQEH

@TeamQEHSurgery @TeamQEH Scalpel needs to be careful eating too many sweets he will need to pay a visit to our dental department. Pleased to see that scalpel has seen the great work the team on Denver ward have been doing with the safer program and the increase of safe discharges for our patients.

After being found with his head in the treat jar, Scalpel made his way to Denver Ward to hear about how the ward team have been outstanding in their approach to the SAFER project, with record numbers of discharges on many occasions! Thank you Denver Ward! @TeamQEH

@TeamQEHSurgery @TeamQEH Thank you scalpel for highlighting the fabulous work our swabbing team do they have been pivotal to the safety of our elective patients. Thank you team.

And he's off! Scalpel the Elf has just visited the swabbing team for his SAMBA swab before making his way around the Trust. This is along with all the other patients they have swabbed to get the elective surgery back up and running. Thank you Swabbing Team! @TeamQEH
