This is madness. Engaging in conscience-driven peaceful protest ≠ professional misconduct GMC.
Drs have a civic (& human) right to protest, (& a prof responsibility for public health). How is denying them this right a part of GMC remit ('to support good, safe patient care')?

I was checking out the venue last weekend. #Cambridge Please book for the MWF conference Friday 10th May. Or just the dinner (Thurs 9th May with Catherine Calderwood speaking between courses). Women doctors, medical students and allies welcome! See you then...

This. This is worrying and important

Centre for Perioperative Care have developed a manifesto ahead of the forthcoming general election to provide ideas for political parties to incorporate into their own manifestos 🧵

We have written to Amanda Pritchard and Victoria Atkins about our concerns that NHS England is decommissioning NHS Practitioner Health services.

We are concerned about the effect on ALL staff, and particularly concerned that women and IMG doctors will be disproportionately affected

So so many docs on my timeline saying that they too have been greatly helped by Practitioner Health Programme - it will be missed badly unless NHSE reverses its short sighted decision pronto

NHS staff have little time for workshops or away days to learn about good teamwork and communication.

But some more “bite sized” solutions are available to help us change our behaviour, says Prof Scarlett McNally bmj.com/content/385/bm…
