Since the @RCPhysicians will soon become the Royal College of Quacks, I have taken the honours to make you a new logo. I only ask for one thing and that is to refund all fees doctors have paid. You're welcome!
These dinosaur consultants don't have a clue
This comment on my HSJ story about the resident doctors' pay offer is likely to raise some hackles. I do think things have changed almost unrecognisably for resident doctors compared to those in consultant posts now - and probably not for the best.
Forcing doctors to #BeKind and have toxic humility is that any old unqualified person thinks they can do our jobs, and it’s somehow rude to give deluded people a reality check It’s time to reassert that Medicine and the skills involved are neither easy nor achievable by everyone
There’s a fundamental truth that few are prepared to say Any medical student could walk into physio, pharmacy, nursing etc with their eyes shut The reciprocal is not true 🇬🇧 needs to work out if it wants the brightest to be their doctors? If you do, treat us better! 🤷♂️
No money to reverse Dr pay cuts No money to increase training places No money to hire more consultants It’s all lies It’s always a political choice from a corrupt govt & the ideologically-captured civil serpents
🇬🇾 Deep in the Guyanese jungle, a new £52 million road is being carved through the Amazon — financed by British climate aid @haylesdixon reports on how a fund meant to protect the planet is bankrolling projects that critics say do the opposite ⬇️
The NMC will think nothing about this The NMC will do nothing about this Because there is NO REGULATION of 'advanced practice'
In a return to our race to the bottom series. What is this job? There is no such job as a registrar nurse. This is a nurse playing doctor and using a doctors role in their job title. I wonder what the NMC would think about this. Doctors are being replaced #AskForADoctor
The struthious approach to inconvenient facts
The Chair of the National Pharmacy Association was in his back office rooting around patients ears attempting to remove foreign bodies A procedure explicitly excluded from pharmacy first So forgive me if I call BS on "very narrow scope" x.com/OlivierPicardU…
Daughter’s friend waited hours in A&E for an earring stuck in her ear. They couldn’t help so referred her to ENT 5 days later. So she came to my pharmacy & in minutes, earring removed safely, pain gone without delays. Reduce pressure on #NHS. This is what pharmacy can do!
So this is a document written by two non-medical people, who’ve never undergone medical training or worked in a clinical capacity. For some reason they’ve re-invented the wheel by suggesting a speciality that already exists: Acute Medicine.
"As a nurse consultant, I work at a similar level to a medical consultant” 🤡
So doctors are legally obliged to reject a £15 box of chocolates from a patient as a “conflict of interest”… …but the bloke in charge of the ENTIRE BRITISH MEDICAL SYSTEM can take ~£400K from “private health sources” since coming into office… …and that’s totally okay???
Sadly all on point.
When things go wrong in the NHS (as they do each year and get progressively worse): Department of Health - ‘it’s the greedy doctors. GPs not doing enough. Resident doctors trying to hold the public to ransom with strikes’ NHS E - ‘we need more money, our hands are tied and we…
Brilliant @wesstreeting A message to all medical students and Foundation Doctors You are some of the brightest and best in society. Start looking for roles outside of medicine today. Many companies would love to have you.
Today @wesstreeting has put junior doctors on notice that taxpayers’ cash will not fund more training posts if they continue to strike, in interview with Sunday Times @cazjwheeler READ: thetimes.com/article/afbe06…
As I said to you in the room, the labour government did not give 28%. About 12% of that was given by the tories via DDRB (iirc), and stating it like this ignores the catastrophic pay erosion doctors have experienced (~50%). In fact, doctors are still paid less than before the…
"The BMA should call off these needless strikes, come back to the table, and give negotiations a chance." Watch Health and Social Care Secretary @WesStreeting's statement on BMA resident doctors announcing more strikes.
Here it is - the list of main authors. Not a single medical doctor in the big list of people who decided they could work as doctors without studying Medicine:
I don’t understand the toxicity from some senior nursing leaders towards our Nursing Associates on X. ✅Nursing Associates are highly trained professionals. ✅They are trained to “the nursing model.” ✅They complete an intensive two-year nursing programme. ✅They support, not…
I’ll bite. What knowledge does a day 1 ST4 have that a day 364 CT3 doesn’t have that means an ACP can’t work to the level of an ST4?
Yes I do. The ACP pathway is designed specifically to stop at an end point. There is too much other knowledge required (that medical school and other training gives you) that ACPs will simply never have.
So I sometimes take a break from X. You know why? It sometimes gets too hot. Not just for me, but for others who are assumed to be me. My email has been hacked. My 2FA has been attempted. Others have tried to link mobile nos. I am still here. Take a look at this. You fuckers.
I had the VP of AAA (@ukmat82) repeatedly ask me for my name today. He also repeatedly asked for another anon’s identity, & tried to dismiss anons for being anonymous. I want to draw attention to this post, where a senior consultant & TPD feels unsafe speaking out in the NHS 1/
Interesting article from the super Pandas Nurse Led Team Someone should investigate…. @CareQualityComm
There has been a lot of discussion re ACPs recently, with some defending that ACPs are qualified to act at ST3 level, I thought it’d be helpful to sample ACP courses. I chose two highly regarded unis (King’s, Edinburg) & then De Montfort to get a good breadth of representation 1/
Let me show you what happens when you try to replace more skilled workforce with lesser skilled workforce This always reminds me of a story - a famous bulb manufacturer was working on building better and better filaments fro their light bulbs that would last longer They…
Those in charge of the NHS are trying to tell us all that you can get: - the same or better outcomes - more quickly/better access - more cheaply By using people less skilled This is NHS and quango logic I do wonder why we have an education system in the first place…
