    We'd like to give our own round of applause to Connie who at 106 is heading home from City Hospital having successfully beaten #Coronavirus. She is our oldest patient to beat the virus - and may well be the oldest in the country to do so! #ClapForConnie swbh.nhs.uk/media/106-year…

    Dr Jonah Rizkallal, better known as JR, is retiring from the Trust after serving 30 years in our A&E department at Sandwell Hospital. We're sad to see him go, but wish him all the best in his retirement. #nhshero

    Did you know that the NHS employs over 75,000 junior doctors across the UK? One of them at SWB is Josh - who works in our Same Day Emergency Care (SDEC) department. His ambition is to do the right thing for every patient. #PeopleofSWB

    Consultant Neurologist, @djnicholl is seeing rising numbers of patients suffering nerve damage from using laughing gas. He was featured on The One Show tonight - where he warned people “don’t mess with your future. Laughing gas is no joke”.#balloons #laughinggas #bbc #theoneshow

    Many thanks to @amateuradam & @DoctorsDistress for helping us plant an olive tree @ Sandwell Hospital to remember all NHS colleagues who have died by suicide. This memorial is a destination for reflection and a symbol of love and care for all. #SWBfamily

    Finally our last ever inpatient has left City Hospital to be cared for at the Midland Met - a poignant moment as Pankaj Kumar is also an A&E doctor at our Trust. Leaving to a round of applause, his transfer brings the building’s use as a hospital for 130 years to an end.
