THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: If care is 'faster, simper and fairer' why have we basically not hit the 85% cancer target in almost a *DECADE* 😢

RT if you want honest conversations about resourcing the NHS properly, rewarding staff fairly & #retaining staff to end this 👇

Hi Jonathan Corne 👋

I see you are Postgraduate Dean for the East Midlands

Any chance you can:

1) Give a full and detailed account to these Doctors as to why they're only considered a number to the East Midlands & where exactly things have gone wrong

2) Fix it

Thanks

Join our demo outside the Royal College of Physicians this Thursday, let them know we won't be fobbed off with fake Doctors.
Bring banners, placards, union flags, drums, whistles
This has been kept quiet far too long, let's make a noise!

Why Use #PhysicianAssociates

Rather Than #Doctors

To Treat Sick #Children ?

I for one welcome the UUP decision to select Tim Collins to stand in North Down.

Frankly, there aren’t enough poorly informed, egotistical, arrogant, right-wing cranks living in Kent standing for election here.

Another masterstoke brought to you by the UUP.

So proud of our team who were successful in their bids to present at the International Conference on Integrated Care over the next couple of days.

We are showcasing the amazing GPNI, General Practice Elective Care service and the Practice Improvement and Crisis Response Team 🙌🏻

Iona Collins.DOCTOR. The failure of the GMC to take action on the trust itself is a dereliction of its *real duty*
More than 10% of the patients I clerked in acute medicine died within 6 months
If anyone in this cohort who ‘could’ be acutely unwell needs an in person rereview, then they all do

A fitness to practise tribunal (MPTS) determines that a PA's history should be repeated by a doctor and a PA's examination should be repeated by a doctor too.

If The Royal College of Radiologists wish to raise their rates by 10% this year they must justify it. Radiologists need to know if their FRCR is valued - why are radiographers reporting cross sectional imaging in some trusts? Completely inappropriate.

Can you defend this?

Let’s be clear, no PAs would be holding doctor oncall bleeps, running GP clinics, doing endoscopies, GAs etc

Unless they were actively enabled by specific senior doctors

Having spoken to a senior training ITU consultant myself, I can tell you it’s for purely selfish reasons

Hats off to SoR. So I ask when is The Royal College of Radiologists going to come up with a position statement like this for cross sectional imaging. As X sectional also requires considerable training,experience & expertise. Training is being compromised just look at the most recent trainee survey

Really pleased to speak at Irish Medical Organisation AGM panel discussion “Valuing Patients by Valuing doctors” on The BMA concerns about expansion of Physicians Associates. Important that scope of practice defined and clarity provided so patients know when they are not seeing a doctor.

I'm sure all of those tory sympathisers or people who think others shouldn't use emojis to express themselves on this platform will be giving it large to the Evening Standard right now....

Or maybe they just don't like the truth and articulate women who speak it 🤔

We have been telling the colleges for *years* the issues with their MAP plans. They didn’t listen and it seems they are still not listening. As college members I’d urge you to encourage them to listen.

That the Times even carries such a headline today shows the absolute viciousness of Rishi Sunak’s government.

They seriously set out to criminalise homelessness.

Only pulled back because a few of their own became mutinous.

Stone cold venality.
