We're pleased to share that The London Clinic has been selected as a finalist for the Nursing Times award for the Learning Disabilities Nursing Award!    This award recognises the unique role that nurses have in supporting patients with learning disabilities, along with their families and carers, to achieve and maintain good health, wellbeing and their full potential. It focuses on how nurses or nursing teams work to break down barriers that may prevent participation in society or result in health inequalities.      We're honoured to be selected on the shortlist and can't wait for the awards announcements in October.     The London Clinic’s award entry focuses on a project which is about reaching beyond what constitutes a reasonable adjustment. Our Clinical Site Team identified areas of improvement in care for patients admitted with additional needs, and developed a new care framework. This includes:  • improved patient passports   • identification and escalation of patients with additional needs at pre-assessment  • review of time booked for consultations  • further training and education  • policy reviews  • a consistent working group  • assurance into the Patient Safety Committee  • review of patient experience data including support from patients at the patient forum  • improved communication aids   • family/carer involvement.      This also included the appointment of two lead roles within the Clinical Site Practitioner Team including our Dementia Lead (Dawn) and our Learning Disability and Autism Lead (Joao). The team have taken a multi professional approach to the project making sure that all teams are working together to ensure this particular cohort of patients receive safe quality care that is tailored to their individual needs.     #NursingTimesAward #LearningDisabilitiesCare #Nursing #Nurses #TheLondonClinic #LondonHospital #PrivateHealthcare #AwardShortlist

A Loving Organization Consortium, Apurv Gupta, MD, MPH, Peter Pronovost MD, PhD, FCCM -- Wow! This video is so powerful! So many are being pulled to #ALovingOrganization and #LovingWorkflows with our launch of A Loving Organization Consortium this month. It is the love in each of us being attractive to itself, yes? Still, like everything else in life, the key is implementation and sustainability. How do we implement loving transformation in healthcare cultures and workflows and sustain it? This video answers that question. Yes, it's an hour video. Who has time? But this will be powerful use of your time in understanding implementing systemic love in healthcare as the only answer to its many, even existential, woes. If you only want to listen to the brilliant Peter Pronovost MD, PhD, FCCM, Chief Quality and Clinical Transformation Officer and the equally amazing Jennifer Gonzalez, Nursing Excellence Advisor, who have successfully implemented systemic love in University Hospitals, start the video at 9:45 and go though the Q&A. It's inspiring!--(in spirit). I believe we can even accelerate implementation of transformation based in love, such as the amazing work of Dr. Pronovost and his team at UH. This is with the introduction of Nobel Prize-winning systems science, the Law of Dissipative Structures as the accelerant. Simple, fast, aligned with how the universe and nature transform--stress/fear/separation to Love/Connection/Synergy. 💙 💙 #LovingSystemsThinking #3DHealthcare

HAPPY NURSES' WEEK A poem for you, because you are part of an elite TEAM A quick explanation why you are so supreme Some days may be quiet and some days may be slow, While many days you wonder – where did the time go? You work tirelessly for your patients even when they are feeling crappy You go the extra mile just to help make them happy You may find that you’re putting your own needs last So you can always get help to your patients fast You’re appreciated more than you may know And here’s hoping this poem will show You’re the cream of the crop Because you care non-stop. So, here's a “sweet” Candy Recipe for a great Nurses’ Week and a few things to get you through the days to show you’re appreciated in every way: ·       Hugs and Kisses - because you deserve them all ·       Snicker - to remind you that laughter can be the very best medicine ·       Lifesavers - A reminder of the many times you were a real life saver ·       Lollipop – to help you “lick” any obstacles that may come your way ·       Tootsie Roll – to help you roll with the punches ·       Starburst – for the days or nights you need that extra burst of energy ·       Mint – because your compassion towards others is always worth a mint.

A great way to gain insight into the proposed rule!

Patients’ voices are so important in process improvement and growth. If we don’t know we can’t fix it. Patient experience and quality is intertwined in everything we do in healthcare or should be. Meeting patient needs is more successful when you embrace patient family centered care. #patientexperience #patientcenteredcare #patientadvocacy #patientsafety

Striving for perfection in nursing can lead to burnout and dissatisfaction, as the relentless pursuit of flawlessness can be draining and demoralizing. Instead, by shifting our focus to excellence, we embrace a mindset that values progress over perfection, resilience over rigidity. Excellence acknowledges the inherent humanity in nursing practice, fostering a culture of continuous improvement and compassionate care. Let's prioritize nursing excellence as a path to both professional fulfillment and holistic well-being. #NursingExcellence #AimforGreatness #Perfectionism #LifeCoaching #BurnoutCoaching #HealingNurseBurnout
