As my fellow lead and I are coordinating the staff psychological support plan across four hospitals plus an emergency hospital in the second-largest acute hospital Trust in the country, I need anything that you can throw me that keeps my retirement dreams alive (and I had less than two years to go, bloody typical...).
Well rural France shopping update. Picard (think Iceland but run by Waitrose), situation normal except they have removed the trolleys so you have to use your own bags, stock normal. Centre Frais 23 (local produce shop) fully stocked, tills protected by cling film :s Bio Creuse (local organic shop) fully stocked including all vitamins and supplements that are going for silly money online at normal price. Carrefour, situation normal just a slightly poor selection of long life bread. All in all apparently a nice stress free shop with zero issues.
Navy hospital ships are like really ugly, boxy cruise ships. How dumb do you have to be to want to crowd up to see one? I see a few public bikes too.
Australia shops have put on limits to stop panic buying........2 cases of beer and 12 bottles of wine a day.
glad to read that, same thing in the nearby superstores around there...as of now , I'm wondering if I'm not gonna join volunteers armies to help farmers with the harvests...already 150000 did so, it could be really helpful and I am unemployed for more than a month, it starts to get on my nerves to be lockdown
Just wait until they complain on twitter that they can't wipe their arse with the facebook likes they got for their selfies
I'm not actually on the wards, so pretty safe, but we are rapidly gearing up and training up staff to provide psychological support to the medical and nursing staff who are. Huge job: 20,000+ staff to look after.
'cause Amazon are prioritising essentials. If it's supplied by an Amazon fulfillment center then it's probably on the back burners. I have a non essential order that's estimated for 25th April, and a delivery tomorrow, and then another one on Friday. But those aren't supplied by Amazon.
Maybe not the general public, but politicians? Oh hell yes... More money, more investment, more medical staff, and fewer managers, please. That's adorable. When I lived back 'at home' we used to get sheep in the garden quite regularly, though I never saw goats - I'm in a much less 'rural' area now!
Yeah, I don't get their "essentials" theory either. I got a monitor the day after I ordered it, but a monitor seems about on par with the speaker stands and power strip I ordered that're scheduled for the 25th in levels of "essential". I guess it's more that they're not shipping stuff they don't have and they're prioritising essentials deliveries, but the slower moving items (Scotch, monitors) aren't being sold out as quickly thus can still ship without interrupting the current "essentials first" mentality. Or Amazon is making it up as they go along and Bezos just wants to appear decent, instead of actually being decent.
More managers please --then senior clinicians can get on with being clinicians. Or less bureaucracy, most of which to do with managing a limited budget. At the moment, we're in this weird, magical space where bureaucracy has been shredded, money is suddenly no object, and things are simply getting done.
Long may it continue . I mean, it won't when this has all died down, but it's nice to think positively once in a while! .
