A day to remember.. Our very own Staff Nurse Iasha Thornton became The DAISY award Honouree for April.
Your kindness and compassion really touched the hearts of a family in such a difficult circumstance. Thank you and Well done! @bthft Prof Karen Dawber 🌈 #daisyaward 🌼🏆

This is exactly why ‘just doing the obs’ needs to be banned. BP monitoring alongside the remaining vital signs should be part of a comprehensive clinical assessment 100% of the time!
