Long overdue.
Filipino nurses have been the backbone of the NHS since 1969—decades as the largest international nurses in health & social care.
Now, we’re finally named in the NHS Staff Survey.
Not “other.”
We are seen, named, acknowledged. 🇵🇭💙 #FilipinoNurses #EquityMatters

Marking my 25 years in the NHS &
#InternationalNursesDay2025
One unforgettable abseil for a cause close to my heart @ESNEFT.
Thank you to all the mentors, colleagues & friends who’ve shaped my journey.
This flower from my husband made it extra special.

She dedicated her life to uplifting others, ensuring IENs felt at home in the UK.
Rest in Glorious Peace Nang💔

Race Equality Week:
Do we see beyond our biases? Many ethnic minority staff in the @NHSuk & IHS feel judged before they even speak—especially when aiming for senior roles. It’s time to challenge this.

The kindest and gentlest soul, the one who made me feel the love of a father, has gained his wings. Heaven has truly welcomed its best angel. Rest peacefully, Arthur💙

Sitting with my father-in-law, a stoic naval officer now facing his final days, reminds me how fleeting life is. Let bygones be bygones, cherish your loved ones, and don’t act like we’ll be here forever. Life is too short for anything else. 💙

Beside my beloved father-in-law as his life ebbs away @stelizabethhospice.bsky.social, I’m reminded how empathy and integrity guide us, even in the hardest moments. 💙 #DignityInCare #Compassion

Surprised Mama during dinner after flying 8,000 miles from the UK to Manila. The journey was long, but her smile made every mile worth it. This is the life of an Internationally Educated Nurse—sacrifices & love intertwined.
