Hear from two nursing staff about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on care homes and older people's care.
We are living in historic times. Since the World Health Organization declared a pandemic in 11 March 2020, nursing staff have performed a huge range of vital roles in the COVID-19 response in the UK and beyond. Now is the time to go beyond the “clap for carers†and better understand what life during the pandemic has been like for nursing staff in different situations and contexts. From first responders and nursing leaders to staff working in care homes and the nursing students who stepped up from their degrees to support the NHS, this series marks the ongoing impact of the pandemic on nursing and nurses.
Each virtual event takes the form of two live interviews with nursing and healthcare staff and students, followed by a Q&A. The interviews will be recorded and added to the RCN archive, making sure these nursing experiences are recorded for posterity.
Care Homes and COVID-19
In the second event in the series, we will hear from two nurses with different experiences working in and managing care homes during the pandemic. The interviewer is Susan Aitkenhead, Director of RCN Scotland.
Interviewees:
Dr Jane Douglas QN RN is Chief Executive of QME Care and the Scotland Rep on the RCN's Independent Health and Social Care Sector Strategy Programme
Duncan MacDonald, House Manager at an Erskine Care Home
