I’m still furious that sharing BMA guidance has been met with such intimidation. It’s our trade union.

Many thanks to Cecilia Adamou for asking me to contribute alongside Eilidh 🦀

My concern, beyond public dissatisfaction, is the worsening of healthcare outcomes with the planned Physician Associates expansion within the NHS

This will inevitably cause an ⬆️ in patient harm

Libby Adam Hussain Adam Janjua I think you need to get a copy of this. It’s really sad to see the persisting opinion of the public and ex/current nhs staff thinking GPs are lazy-this is a line generated by the gov/media:

I’ve teamed up with 38 Degrees to create this petition

👉🏼 One in ten of us already face a three-week wait for a GP appointment. With hundreds of GPs facing closure, the number of us waiting could get even higher. The Government need a proper plan to save GPs from closure.…

Happy #NationalDoctorsDay and thank you to all of our lovely doctors working across the NHS, we are so grateful for all you do 💙

UK is DYING
Life expectancy fallen
250,000 excess deaths in addition to Covid pandemic
Longest waits for healthcare in Europe
Conservative Govt is responsible
The pandemic exposed the failures which were already present
Yet since then we have a Govt determined to finish the job

We will be responding to the GMC's consultation on how it regulates physician associates (PAs) and anaesthesia associates (AAs) and would encourage our members and all doctors to complete it

NHSE have mandated (finally!) that ALL work undertaken by PAs must be supervised by the GP

GPs even now still have patients sitting in a consult asking when they are going to open…. That pandemic messaging was so strong

I couldn’t let the North of our patch go without TV coverage! The Lancs & Cumbria LMCs Financial Report featured heavily on ITV News Border where Dr Ellen Welch and I talk about the financial distress GP is in. MP Tim Farron also does the piece justice 👏🏼👏🏼. Watch the clip here 👇🏽
