It seems such a long time since my last blog and so much has happened ...
Although I have not blogged I have been hard at work, striving to get the nurse community talking and developing a new project that aims to do this. And now I am very proud to announce the launch of NurChat.
NurChat...
NurChat is a project that I have been working on with the lovely people at Newcross Healthcare. NurChat is a fortnightly chat for nurses and the nursing community to discuss nursing issues, journal articles and nursing news. The chats can be accessed via searching #NurChat and will take place on every other Tuesday evening at 8pm and the date for the first chat is TUESDAY 9TH AUGUST - put it in your diary now!!
To get regular updates of the NurChat twitter chats and to find out more go to www.nurchat.blogspot.com and give NurChat a follow.
NurChat officially launched yesterday and since then I have been truly overwhelmed by all the support from the tweeting and healthcare community, it's great to see everyone coming together with a common goal in mind .... to talk!! I would like to thank each and every one of you out there for the help and support ..and I am really looking forward to getting involved in some great discussions with you all.
See you there ...
So don't forget the first NurChat on TUESDAY 9TH AUGUST AT 8PM. I am really excited about seeing you all there!

Hi Teresa,
ReplyDeleteWe have never met but we chatted the other evening through Nurchat about flu vaccinations for frontline staff.
There is a form on our website where nurses can recommend a colleague for a 'nurse of the month' award. We normally stipulate that people have to nominate someone else but in exceptional cases we allow people to nominate themselves. You are one such case.
We are really impressed with your work in social media and your campaigning on important issues. If you could fill the form in and recommend yourself, we would be pleased to accept the nomination.
As part of the winner's prize, there is an interview that we post on the website - more opportunity to promote nurchat - not forgetting the bottle of champagne, bouquet of flowers and hamper!
The form can be found at: http://www.medisister.com/nurse-of-the-month/#form
Best wishes,
Medisister
