Well my PEG (percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy) training was very reminiscent of my phlebotomy training days when I worked in the NHS, but Instead of a silicone arm, I had this cute teddy to practice on!

Undertaking new skills and continuing my professional development helps me provide safer more knowledgeable person centered care. This allows me to keep my skills and knowledge up to date and that my practice reflects current guidance, legislation and care standards.

Training such as PEG care, dementia care, safeguarding, medication and other areas of specialist care strengthens my ability to support clients safely.

I'm very aware I haven't posted anything on my page since last month.
And here's the reason for my absence!
⬇️⬇️
Meet Winnie my new little helper! She's a miniature Dachshund and bringing so much joy already!
She's become the hot topic of conversation with my clients, who can't wait to meet her!

I thought I'd take a little treat to one of my clients this afternoon. These certainly cheered him up!
A big thank you to Beckoffi for being such a special place to visit. And for making the most delicious treats.
These carrot and cream cheese frosting cupcakes did not disappoint!

It's wonderful to see how something as simple as sitting and eating an ice-cream encourages a wonderful reminiscence of childhood summer holidays.
