@amandajplatell @BcfcStewart Have you worked as a district nurse at night when two colleagues phoned in sick. You and a health care assistant are “ it” for the next 12 hours for the entire county.

I began my nursing career in 1973 and yesterday I retired. Most of my career has been in palliative care. It's time to look back with pride and to thank all the patients, their loved ones and so many skilled colleagues who have taught and supported me. Thank you one and all
