	"The term nurse can be used by anyone in the UK. They can use this term to offer professional advice and services even if they have no nursing qualifications, experience or have been struck off a professional register." More details

My source (and signed):

Anyone in the UK can call themselves a nurse. Even if they have no nursing qualifications or experience. They can even call themselves a nurse if they have been struck off. This is a #PatientSafety issue
If you are concerned too please sign #ProtectNurse https://t.co/FD9MS1JZpu

How do you integrate their 'outputs'?

I am not disputing the need for APPGs and their number, but highlighting a 'fact of care and governance' and what remain legacy problems of holistic, integrated, person-centred and reflective care.

Social Determinants of Health: The Canada Facts

SDoH: The Canadian Facts

 

Ten years ago we made available Social Determinants of Health: The Canada Facts to fill the vacuum created by Canadian governments and public health agencies on the social causes of illness and health.  In contrast these issues of health inequalities and their causes are front and centre in the European Union. 

Despite virtually no media coverage the document was downloaded over 1,200,000 times over the decade, 85% of which were by Canadians. It penetrated into just about every civil society and public health agency documents and gets 7560 hits in a google search.

We have now produced a second edition, available here https://thecanadianfacts.org/

Of special interest to you may be the Epilogue that places all of the disturbing information into a political economy perspective that examines the imbalance in power between the corporate and business sectors and the rest of us and how this skews public policymaking.

Best wishes,

Dennis
