It’s good to see the BBC reporting on this. Whilst pay restoration remains by far and away the No.1 issue for doctors. The patient safety concerns / a safe scope for MAPs and training pathways / bottlenecks are joint 2nd from my discussions with doctors. bbc.co.uk/news/health-68…
Just to emphasis further how ludicrous this is, England has one of the lowest proportions of doctors to inhabitants. Why are we actively pushing doctors away?

As always, an absolute pleasure to speak at the National Medical Schools Widening Participation Forum Conference. I spoke about how as doctors we can advocate and influence policy and wider society…sorry if you thought the talk was about how to get more Instagram followers!

Imagine being told you have 3 weeks before starting your new job to find a place to live - in a city or town you've never been to before. It's unreasonable. It's unacceptable. It's unfair.

Had a great weekend on AMU and got to learn some POCUS and do an ascitic tap. Patient couldn't believe we had an ultrasound machine small enough to fit in a pocket! It's almost magical 😲 Hocus POCUS?
Statement on Dr Sarah Benn from @ERunswickBMA : "We are very concerned that implementation of the current fitness to practise framework could potentially restrict Dr Benn’s ability to continue to be registered as a doctor, for taking part in peaceful protest..." (1/5)
So the GMC takes issue with a female doctor peacefully protesting because she cares for the environment but has no issue with anti-vax male doctors spreading dangerous propaganda. I am shaking with rage.

A great session on Anti-Racism in Medicine by Dr @olamide_dada. The need to have an anti-racist approach in medicine continues to hugely important!
First day of conference wrapped up, amazing speakers and so happy to see Dr @lara_akinn and have the 22/23 Co-Chair duo reunited
Matthew Young is a graduate entry medical student who has to choose between rent and tuition fees. Are we really okay with capable students being priced out like this when we want a more diverse workforce? We can do so much better #Medstudentconf

Fab to see this issue getting some light - retention of Doctors should be considered at all levels, including before day 1! Thanks to @NickTriggle & Emma from Warwick med school for getting this out there @BMAstudents
Behind-scenes NHS problems leave new doctors without jobs bbc.in/3Uush2P
My rota coordinator only works 4 days a week 8am-2pm
It’s good to see the BBC reporting on this. Whilst pay restoration remains by far and away the No.1 issue for doctors. The patient safety concerns / a safe scope for MAPs and training pathways / bottlenecks are joint 2nd from my discussions with doctors. bbc.co.uk/news/health-68…
Went to call a patient from the waiting room in ED last night, there was a literal cheer from the crowd 🥲 Camaraderie between strangers in a stuffy waiting room with > 4 hour waits to be seen, filled me with a weird mix of emotions
The idea primary care can partition off ‘simple’ problems is for the birds. Simplicity is retrospective - can only say once assessed, diagnosed and successfully treated. Undifferentiated pts require experienced clinicians who can deal with full spectrum of complexity. #teamgp
@StGeorgesUni great- why can’t people post comments online? Basic tenets of democracy and freedom of speech - as long as done with respect Pretty sure people are allowed to raise concerns of false equivalence - which is an issue for sure a lot of us are raising
Departments that use their foundation doctors to just do admin. See the surgical department in *redacted* that makes F1s do the list and prescribe for the (often non prescribing) nurse practitioners who clerk new admissions on SAU
@WayoftheRay @rachelgemma90 Dear Dr Effah, I salute you all, it must be soul destroying having to try to offer care in these conditions. All I can say is that I fervently hope things improve for you. Thank you again.
No slight to the pharmacists involved, but I cannot refer patients to a scheme that permits antibiotics to be prescribed for 6 of the 7 conditions without the patient being seen. This scheme could have worked, but what has been rolled out is poor. theguardian.com/society/articl…
It seems to me something has fundamentally shifted in the "market" for doctors over the last few months. F2s left without training places, but few clinical fellow jobs and even fewer locums meaning an F3 year is no longer viable for many. Not sure I fully understand what 1/3
This is dangerous. If GPs don't feel comfortable referring to pharmacists for certain conditions, it's on the scheme to change their minds. You can't demand the NHS forces them to use a pathway they think isn't safe. theguardian.com/society/articl…
This is a terrible study. I am actually surprised it was published. It is a breakdown of one person's performance. But NO comparators. I imagine huge selection bias. Assisted in every case by a doctor. What does 'assisted' even mean here? This proves absolutely nothing.
May have just had one of the most soul-destroying shifts in A&E I’ve ever had. How is it ok that people are waiting on a chair for over 2 days for a hospital bed? The moral injury of delivering such poor care is just awful.
Schrödinger’s PA: they’re either “medical generalists” when they explain how they’re almost the same as a GP. They’re “specialist experts” when a trust wants to justify them working senior resident doctor roles An insult to years of training that make GPs and specialists alike.
@WayoftheRay Thank you Raymond. Same for your friend!
To the people telling me to just accept a job anywhere in the UK. Why should I have to uproot my entire life again. I can’t afford to. I didn’t apply for national training. I should be able to find a job in deaneries close to my support network. The lack of jobs is the issue here
the reason I am tweeting this is because I know there are many FY2s in the same position as me. I didn’t apply to training as I am undecided on which speciality. I’ve been a doctor for nearly 2 years yet now I’m facing unemployment. We have a manufactured shortage of doctors.
There are many doctors who want to work, but no job for them to go to. Instead we are being actively replaced by other roles such as PAs. I am not eligible to apply for these jobs even though I am more qualified. My CV is well rounded and I am a good doctor.
I’m an FY2 doctor who does not have a job from August. It’s May & there are very few clinical fellow jobs advertised. Locums are drying up. I applied to med school as a working class student & was the first in my family to go to university. Doctors no longer have job security.
