"Roy McFarlane’s second poetry collection, The Healing Next Time, is a timely and unparalleled book of interwoven sequences on institutional racism, deaths in custody and of a life story set against the ever-changing backdrop of Birmingham at the turn of the millennium. Here forms a potent and resolute narrative in lyrical and multidimensional poems which refuse to look the other way or accept the whitewashed version of events."

"What should I do?"	Glove Awareness: RCN
What can we do?	What must I/we do?

On the 15th April in London I attended the 3rd RIPEN workshop (Re-envisioning Infection Practice Ecologies in Nursing) I learned a lot from listening to colleagues far closer day-to-day - night-to-night to the sharp end of infection control and protective measures. Of particular interest was discussion on hand-washing and the circumstances, frequency and numbers of dressing packs that are used and the constant search for evidence-based practice.

Actually without taking anything from those people at the infection coal-face, can I take back that reference to "far closer"?

Take it back, because this really matters to us ALL.

compassion	THEORY
PRACTICE	governance

While compassion must be demonstrated by the individual practitioner [as one of the 6Cs], it is also a positive phenomena that should be found, experienced and readily transferred - communicated within the team and community of practice.

Allied with governance, health systems should then ensure that there is time and space for compassionate care. While 'middle' might work as a metaphor in Hodges' model, the qualities of compassion and governance are not about the 'middle', as in, being average.

Hodges' model can also help us appreciate the role that self-governance plays in personal responsibility, accountability and professionalism.

The great amount of effort and work to place assure the person is at the center of care (and #h2cm) also becomes apparent.
