More blogs to celebrate our 1st birthday!
As it's our 1st birthday we continue to revisit some of our blogs. On Monday we selected our favourite blogs by self advocates. Today we select some of our most popular blogs and why some people choose a career of supporting people with learning disabilities!
Adam uses an iPad to communicate - this is a wonderful blog by Yasmin, our Speech & Language Therapist. She explains how technology is helping people to communicate.
Doors opening for a RNLD - I knew Janice when she was a student nurse, now she is Associate Director of Nursing at King's College Hospital!
Enough is enough - making reasonable adjustments - this is our most visited blog, with over 19,000 visitors!
From atypical to the big bang - the portrayal of people with autism on the small screen - autism is becoming an ever growing presence in the media. I argue although this is great - are we overlooking people with autism and learning disabilities, women?
From Postman to Professional: My Learning Disability Nursing Journey - this from Lee who re-joined us at Oxleas as team manager for the Greenwich team!
From student nurse to clinical director - my career pathway - this is amazing story of Lorraine's career pathway and the wonderful people she met along the way!
Greenwich Learning Disability ResearchNet: Our Presentation at the Psychiatry Conference - this shows the brilliant work of ResearchNet and they are spreading the word!
Light at the end of the tunnel - the 10 year NHS plan - this is our second most visited blog and the story of Peter and Sunny standing up for the rights of people with learning disabilities!
Our inspirational son Oliver - this is a very touching blog by Oliver's mum - Paula and she speaks about her passion for NHS staff to receive training about autism and reasonable adjustments.
The achievements and tribulations of a nurse - a blog about me!
3 reasons why I became an intellectual disability psychiatrist - written Dr Lilly Lines, a wonderful blog!
Who’s valuing who? the power of what you say - a personal blog by me, regarding the type of language we use sometimes doesn't value everyone.
