Speaking South Tyneside NHS Foundation Trust on September 7th

                                 

Hi 

With great thanks to Dr Bob Brown Executive Director of Nursing, Allied Health Professions and Patient Safety for the kind invite to speak  at South Tyneside NHS Foundation Trust on September 7th 

I am good friends with Bob @bobjbrown on Twitter and very much look forward to meeting in person along with the rest of the team 

The event also coincides with the last month before the CEO of the trust retires and I am very honoured to be taking part  

 Background  to the Trust, we are an integrated hospital and community Trust of 5000 staff that is concentrating on building the awareness and confidence of staff to care for people with memory problems and dementia. Hundreds of our staff have watched Barbara's story, and we have Dementia Friendly status in the Trust plus in specific older person Wards and parts of the community we are working to provide additional support for families and older people with dementia
