Congratulations
Congratulations to Laurence Alison who has been nominated for the Staff Awards, but who I failed to mention last time (apologies).
Kate M Bennett has been appointed Head of School of Psychology and Dr Mike Speed has been appointed Head of the School of Life Sciences.
Congratulations to Laura Golding and Gundi Kiemle (Doctorate in Clinical Psychology programme) who, together with Mark Gabbay & Marina Anderson, were awarded a Schwartz Award for Best Schwartz Innovation by the Point of Care Foundation in November 2016. The main purpose of Schwartz Rounds is to explore the human and emotional aspects of the experience of delivering healthcare and the challenges that staff face from day to day. The Rounds use a large group format and reflective practice to promote staff wellbeing, resilience and empathy. The focus is on staff wellbeing to improve patient care. Funded by Health Education England (North West), the University of Liverpool project involves running multiprofessional Rounds with students across its many healthcare programmes including nursing, occupational therapy, medicine, diagnostic radiography, radiotherapy and physiotherapy. This is the first UK university to run multiprofessional Rounds with students. Rhiannon Barker, from the Point of Care Foundation, attended two Rounds in October and has written an account of this in a recent blog - https://www.pointofcarefoundation.org.uk/blog/accepting-cannot-fix-everything/
Congratulations to all our students Graduating this week - both our on-campus and on-line students.
Congratulations to Paul Christiansen and Nicola on their engagement.
