Today, @dawnbutlerbrent.bsky.social introduced a Ten Minute Rule Bill in Parliament that sets out to legally protect the title "nurse".

The proposal states only those registered with @newsnmc.bsky.social as a registered nurse can use the title “nurse”.

Great to see a focus on Digital Clinical Safety and the role of Clincal Safety Officers #REWIRED25 #patientsafety

This is so important and clinical supervision that is bespoke to your role is vital.
I feel the same way about digital clinical teams and digital clinical/patient safety officers needing specialised supervision and this is an area of focus for me as a clinical supervisor #patientsafety

Getting back into my art lately and starting enjoying my transition to using digital. A couple of the things in progress, had to start a Raziel to go along with my play through of Soul Reaver remasters. #digitalart

Warm welcome to @englandcnio.bsky.social !

Really looking forward to seeing updates from the national CNIO team discussing all things digital, data and tech for the nurse, midwife and clinical healthcare space!

I agree, this is very concerning, also the belief that one person is enough for the activities required 😱. Digital clinical safety is key to getting digital transformation right for patients and staff.
Seeing CSO roles advertised from Band 5 to 8a highlights a worrying disparity. It’s time to establish a consistent and fair entry pay scale point that reflects the expertise and responsibility this role demands. #ClinicalSafety #NHS

Lina and Barney, the gorgeous greyhounds in my life. Greyhounds are amazing animals to welcome into your family, with many retired racing greys in need of good homes to get in their sofa time and long hours of snoozing. #dogsofbluesky #rescuegreyhounds

I am loving Bluesky 🦋
Got lost in cute animal pics, great art and some fab posts.
So much so, I haven't even posted yet.
