📅 Rheumatoid Arthritis Awareness Week at The Lister Hospital This Rheumatoid Arthritis Awareness Week we wanted to share some insights from Dr. Amara Ezeonyeji, Consultant Rheumatologist at The Lister Hospital. Arthritis is a group of over 100 inflammatory joint diseases affecting millions globally. While osteoarthritis (OA) is often linked to joint "wear and tear," other types like rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and gout affect people in different ways, sometimes leading to severe pain, stiffness, and mobility issues. 🚫 Myth-busting: Myth 1: Arthritis only affects the elderly. Arthritis can affect people of all ages, including children. Myth 2: Cracking your knuckles causes arthritis. There’s no scientific evidence to support this! Myth 3: Arthritis is just wear and tear. This myth can be damaging. Not all arthritis is due to wear and tear, and many types, like RA, are autoimmune diseases. At The Lister Hospital, we’re here to support those affected. If you would like to learn more about how we can help you manage Rheumatoid Arthritis, you can book an appointment with Dr. Amara Ezeonyeji, by calling us on: 020 3993 7566 or visiting our website: https://lnkd.in/ehKu9kiZ #RAAwarenessWeek #RheumatoidArthritis #ArthritisAwareness #TheListerHospital #HCAHealthcare #JointHealth #Rheumatology #Healthcare

Transforming Lives: Braemar Charitable Trust's Community Surgery Programme The Braemar Charitable Trust’s flagship initiative, the Community Surgery Programme, is a beacon of hope for many in need. This programme involves surgeons and anaesthetists donating their time and expertise to provide free surgeries at Braemar Hospital. The in-hospital costs are fully funded by the Trust. A collaboration between Braemar Hospital, Waikato Hospital (Health New Zealand | Waikato), and the Braemar Charitable Trust saw children on Waikato Hospital’s ENT surgical waiting list receive expedited surgery through Braemar’s Community Surgery Programme. Using the New Zealand Deprivation Index, children with the highest need were prioritised. Since April 2023, 42 children have received surgery at Braemar Hospital, halving the average wait time in the public system to 149 days, compared to the Health New Zealand target of 365 days. Surgeries performed include tonsillectomies, adenoidectomies, and middle ear ventilation tube (grommet) procedures. The programme has seen tremendous support from surgeons and anaesthetists, some of whom have become credentialed at Braemar Hospital just to participate. This collaboration highlights the powerful impact that cross-sector partnerships can have in providing timely medical care. The Community Surgery Programme also covers other specialties and welcomes referrals for patients who face long public system wait times, aren’t covered by ACC, or private insurance nor the financial means to fund private treatment.  These surgeries can be added to existing private lists or performed during dedicated half-day sessions.

Not only is MMA HEALTHCARE RECRUITMENT a nurse found/owned business that has more than two decades of experience carefully screening and shortlisting, relocating the best healthcare staff for the Care Home Sector & Hospitals (both NHS & Private) witin the UK. The you would have seen on our website but what you do not know is the culture we have at MMA and how special the MMA Team bond is, it is of Caring, Trust, Respect, Love, Honesty, Humbleness, Happiness, Passionate, Support, We always figure this out as team. We do not have the attitude what can the company do for us, we have the attitude, what can we do for the company. We love our applicants, many of them come from rural arrears and sometimes have to travel far just to get to a cafe to get wifi to an webcam interview, or if they are lucky and get the job, they have to leave their child/children behind for 12months, can you imagine that. We love our Clients, we know they are under so much pressure with CoS, CQC, Budgets, day-to-day running of Care Home/Ward, short staffed and ALSO they are human and sometimes need a “virtual hug” from us. In this summary we have 3 “silos” (forgive my terms). Silo 1: MMA Team. Silo 2: Nurses/Carers/Support Workers/Social Care Workers etc Silo 3: Client (CEO, HR, Care Home Manager; Deputy Manager, SSN, SN), all these silos place an important role, and we must never forget why we do this very import “calling”, I say calling and not job. The Resident, The Pasient, The Indivual with Complex Needs, they are ultimately the reason why we do this. To give them the best possible care and this why you should use MMA, our values are steadfast, we really do think of everyone througout the journey and we really do care ❤️

Belfast Health Trust Seeks Innovative Suppliers to Reshape the Future of Breast Reconstruction Surgery In a move to modernise and ensure the best for reconstructive breast surgery, Belfast Health and Social Care Trust has opened its doors to potential suppliers. Through a detailed questionnaire available on eTendersNI, suppliers have until 12th August 2024 to contribute their insights and product information. This request for information, referred to as a Prior Information Notice, allows the Trust to gauge the market before potentially updating their supply chain. It aims to improve the outcomes and experiences of patients undergoing breast reconstruction surgery, ensuring that high-quality and innovative products can be effectively integrated into their procedures. Interested suppliers will need to navigate the eTendersNI platform, find the specific call for tender, and submit their responses by the deadline. Remember, clicking the right links might just be as crucial as supplying the right products! While this does not guarantee participation in future tenders, it's a significant step for companies looking to establish or strengthen their presence in the healthcare sector. Admittedly, some may see this as a time-consuming hoop to jump through for a "maybe" deal. But for those with a solid business model and confidence in their product, it's a golden opportunity to strut their stuff. May the best suppliers help shape a brighter, well-supported future for reconstructive surgery! 🤔 Will this initiative lead to better patient care? 📊 How might this affect the local supply chain landscape? 🏥 What innovations in breast surgery supplies can we anticipate seeing in the market? #HealthcareProcurement #ReconstructiveSurgery #PublicProcurement #Tender For more details on this tender, please click here: https://lnkd.in/eNU9c7wR

Sponsorship within the care industry offers a dual-edged sword 🌟. On one hand, it provides essential financial support 💰, enabling organisations to deliver high-quality care 🏥. However, it can also lead to conflicts of interest and prioritising profits over patients 🤔. Balancing these aspects is crucial for maintaining ethical standards 🌱. #CareIndustry #SponsorshipEthics #SupportingQualityCare
