Following on from our Metabolic Health Study Day. A New healthier eating resource available ‘Moving towards more whole foods’ Somerset ICB has been working collaboratively with public health to produce a resource titled ‘Moving towards more whole foods’. The resource explains what minimally processed whole foods are and includes practical tips and recipes to support with gradual step by step change. The resource encourages people to focus on what to eat more of, whilst being mindful of foods which are linked with poor metabolic health.
The resource is also available on Team Net using this link If you or your practice team would like more information or education about the messages within this booklet, please contact lesley.harper1@nhs.net (Registered Dietitian and project officer lead for the type 2 diabetes path to remission programme).

Change of Title for Trainee Nursing Associates (TNA) Following conversations between NHS England and the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC), the importance of recognising the recommended title for a learner on an NMC approved programme leading to registration as a nursing associate has been reiterated. Therefore the NMC’s recommended title of Student Nursing Associate (SNA) will be adopted with immediate effect. For further information please see the linked letter here.
