UCLH Charity’s Post

🌼I’ve just finished my 2-hour slot collecting donations for Marie Curie at Morrisons in Pontefract. 💖It was great to meet so many lovely people who donated for this great charity. 🏥Marie Curie is a very worthwhile cause providing care and support for people who are at the end of their life and the people who are close to them, right across the UK. 🌼Marie Curie Nurses and Healthcare Professionals provide expert hospice care, whatever the illness, in the comfort of home or in one of their nine hospices. 🏥Marie Curie Nurses give practical hands-on care to help people with any terminal illness remain at home. They will often spend a whole nine-hour shift, usually at night, with one patient and their family. ✅They also do vital research and campaigning work to improve the end-of-life experience for everyone across the UK. 💰About half of it is funded by the NHS but the other half is funded by donations. 💡In 2022-23, Marie Curie Nurses and Healthcare Assistants cared for over 44,000 people and over 1.4 million accessed their online information and support. 💛So, if you’re out and about in the next couple of weeks and you see someone standing in a yellow tabard and a silly yellow hat, with a collection tin, please donate – if you don’t have any cash, they have a card reader to make payment by card. It will help a great cause! #GreatDaffodilAppeal

Dying Matters Awareness Week is an opportunity each year to spark important conversations that will ultimately help people who are dying or grieving to get the information, support and care that they need. In light of this year's theme – the way we talk about Dying Matters – nurses, doctors, patients and volunteers from across our network discuss the importance of speaking openly about death.

Just a few more days to donate to the 2023 scholarship for students studying medicine and healing. Or to the caregiver fund, or our ongoing work. What does healing in healthcare look like to you? Here are some of the things we think would be healing: Physicians having more time to support their families during medical school and residency, and more time with loved ones. This means safer work hours, fewer administrative tasks, and better prior authorization. This also means tools allow physicians and other healthcare professionals to do what is best for patients. Donate today Go to https://lnkd.in/g7X4rtrG to sign up as an ongoing donor. Without the generous support of individual donors, we could not do this work. Each person has the power to heal. #donation #Burnout #MentalHealth

Better to give than receive

There are some hard truths in this report. I was disheartened to see NM’s Fair Share Deficit with 69% of our non-profit hospitals underspending on community. There are likewise some powerful and easy to implement policy recommendations. #PolicyFix
