🌟 Strengthening Skills & Confidence Through Acute Illness Management Training at Rivers Hospital 🌟

At Rivers Hospital, delivering high‑quality, patient centred care is at the heart of everything we do and that starts with investing in the ongoing development of our clinical teams.

Today, our Healthcare Assistants took part in an in‑house Acute Illness Management (AIM) training day, an essential course designed to build confidence and competence when caring for patients.

The AIM course equips healthcare professionals with the skills to recognise, assess, and safely manage acute changes in a patient’s condition. This supports our continued commitment to providing safe, responsive, and high‑quality care across all our services.

A huge thank you to Jackie Jones, our Acute Illness Management Trainer, for leading an informative and engaging session. Your expertise, dedication, and passion for education make a real difference to both patient care and staff development. 👏💙

Turning Challenges into Opportunities for Patient Choice

With The Times reporting that NHS ICBs are delaying routine operations into the next financial year due to major budget pressures potentially affecting up to 140,000 patients many people are now facing longer waits for essential care.

At Rivers Hospital, we’re working closely with the Hertfordshire & West Essex ICB to support patients through these challenges and ensure they understand all the options available to them.

Now more than ever, it’s important to highlight that many patients already have private medical insurance through work or personal policies often without realising they can use it immediately.

⭐ If you’re insured, now is the time to make use of it.
⭐ If you’re unsure, we can help you check.

We’re here to support patients in accessing timely, high‑quality care when they need it most.
