There is no ‘backstory’ to ending of 2/care NHS Practitioner Health other than (we’re told) - no budget. To remind, it was established following suicide of a psychiatry who also killed her baby and highlighted the barriers doctors have in accessing mental health care.

NHS England is rolling back its mental health support for NHS hospital staff. No new patients will be accepted....given the parlous state of services and how some staff can be broken by their work this seems a backwards step.

This is disastrous, hideous news. NHS England are hacking back the mental health support for hospital staff. One doctor takes their life every three weeks. One nurse takes their life every single week. These numbers will now INCREASE. Victoria Atkins - please do the right thing.

Don’t know the full reasons behind this but this is really concerning. I know many people who’ve really benefitted from NHS Practitioner Health access

Finals started today and we had to do our OSCE whilst people were trying not to cry after getting sent to foundation deaneries at the bottom of their list. As grads, some have spouses, houses and babies that UKFPO don’t count as a reason to consider for mitigation. An awful day
