Last week we had an online TRAC meeting with Stacey Rees and friends from Cwm Taff People First. It was lovely to see everyone. 💻❤️

What we talked about:

Training and research. 📚🔍Some members will be trained and paid to become researchers. 💷🧑‍🔬
TRAC members will teach Year 1, 2 and 3 students. 👩‍⚕️👨‍⚕️🎓
Teaching will happen in the simulation suite at USW. 🏥➡️🎓
Students will practise real life situations. This gives them hands-on experience. 🤝🩺
Why this matters:
It helps students learn from real lived experience. 🗣️❤️
It makes learning more realistic and safe. ✅
LD nurses are very important. They keep people safe teaching them helps them to learn how to give the right care. 👩‍⚕️🧑‍⚕️💙
People with lived experience teach students things you can’t read in a book. 📘❌➡️✅

Big thanks to members who joined the meeting. Well done! 👏🎉
