When we smile happy hormones are released from the brain to our body and these make us feel more relaxed, help to lower the heart rate and even blood pressure.
So this week I’m prescribing you all to have at least one day where you make yourself and one other person smile. Whether it’s through a joke or by a kind gesture let’s spread happiness throughout the world.
This World Health Day is dedicated to celebrating the work of nurses and midwives around the world. 🌏
Throughout my career nurses and midwives have always played an integral part to looking after patients. Not only do they look after patients but they also look after us doctors too! Back when I was a junior doctor I had some fond memories of being bleeped by the nurses on a night shift to attend to patients and after seeing the patients, the friendly nursing staff would always offer me a cup of tea and a biscuit.
Thank you for your ongoing high quality of care and respect that you provide us all.
