@LancsHospitals governors are at todays careers event at RPH, do drop by for a chat about membership, NHP and all things NHS. @pav_akhtar @Suleman_Sarwar7 @Cllr_MargaretF @DoranSdoran2 @wadams_19 @louisebarker
Looking forward to watching the National Theatre Live production of ‘ NYE ‘ - the story of how the NHS was born. As a nation, we forget what a revolutionary concept it was , because we’ve forgotten the abyss that lay before. Let’s reinvent the true spirit of Nye Bevan in 2024
When you get vaccinated, you not only protect yourself, but you protect those around you, contributing to immunity across the world. This #WorldImmunisationWeek, make sure you and your family are up to date with vaccinations. Read more: nhs.uk/vaccinations/
.@SaveWithnellHC has now raised a pound per patient in its latest efforts to keep its GP partner in place. Patient @france_lou tells me how raising £4k in just 4 days shows how 'angry and upset' the campaigning community is doctors.net.uk/news/community…
His true - & nakedly cruel - colours. First @RishiSunak declares he’ll cut benefits for 420,000 sick & disabled people to force them into work. Now, 2 days later, he scraps a major scheme, the Work & Health Programme, to help disabled people into work. theguardian.com/society/2024/a…
I'm a local GP and I just can't believe my patients would do this for me lep.co.uk/health/im-a-lo…
From the government whose greatest hits include the meteoric rise in food bank use, fuel poverty, kids too cold & hungry to learn, falling life expectancy & the deliberate destruction of the NHS. Victim blaming & pure, naked cruelty. For shame, @RishiSunak.
Message from our CEO @JanjuaAdam
**BREAKING** - GP pushback part 2 Here’s a letter @BMA_GP has sent to the leaders of each of the 42 ICBs across England advising them to add our imminent action & crisis to their risk registers. If we revert to core general practice care it will have a huge impact on the system

Graphic that represents some of the increase workload in General Practice The number of patients per individual GP has grown to 2300 An agreed safe number is 1800 Govt promised 5000 more GPs in 2015 & 6000 in 2019 but there are 2000 fewer Govt is not funding retention of GPs
Rishi Sunak promised to cut waiting lists. But they’ve actually gone up by 330,000. Please RT if you think everyone should be aware of the Conservatives’ broken promises. huffingtonpost.co.uk/amp/entry/rish…
This was 2023 but nothing has improved since. @BBCRosAtkins BBC looked at NHS funding since 2000 & compared UK healthcare spending with the richest EU members. And then looked at how funding connects to the current NHS crisis. 5 mins on what was found.
John Major (June 2016) was spot on when he said:- “The NHS is about as safe with them (Conservatives) as a pet hamster would be with a hungry python” It was bad then just look at the state of the NHS today No one else to blame but the Conservatives

If you are in doubt about the state of healthcare in the UK this tells you everything All countries experienced the pandemic, the one in red has had the least support from Govt As a GP, prior to 2010 NHS, waiting times were minimal, none of my patients asked about private options

Dear 🇬🇧, 14 years ago, the Tories inherited the #1 ranked healthcare system on the planet and look what damage they’ve done: We now have the longest GP, A&E, cancer, and outpatient waits in NHS history at 10 million people. They don't deserve power. They deserve prison. #SOSNHS

People commending Dr Dan Poulter MP for defecting to @UKLabour ignore the fact he has been a Tory MP for 14 yrs supporting underfunding of the NHS, leading to its current state. It didn’t happen overnight. @UKLabour should not take his advice. @DrRobgalloway is a great option

Continuity of care with a GPs highlighted here as important but interestingly they use visits to GP staff rather than GP (Doctor) visits in the data So despite the headline this needs unpacking @HealthFdn

GP Receptionists are a vital part of the team . They offer care and continuity to patients who can be upset and anxious. Withnell Receptionists are the best ! 👏👏
@JanjuaAdam Terrible for doctors, terrible for patients, terrible for continuity of care . ARRS roles are great , but should be as well as , not instead of doctors . We are watching the planned destruction of our profession.
Over the past couple of weeks I’ve had several GP trainees come to me (in my LMC capacity) expressing real concerns and fears that they won’t be able to get a job in August when they CCT. This is a totally bonkers situation to find ourselves in. How can they fully focus on…
Your regular reminder that seeing your known GP helps you to be healthier and live longer . Continuity of care saves lives .
Lack of GP continuity increases mortality in several chronic diseases buff.ly/3Uy1h3T #COPD #heartfailure #diabetes
Patients with COPD, diabetes and heart failure, who see a regular named GP for their condition have lower rates of mortality than those who do not, a study found. buff.ly/44guJyw
Some years ago, the government changed the name of the medical certificates (sick notes) issued by NHS GPs to “Fit Notes”. I am still waiting for a patient who is too unwell to work to ask me for a fit note rather than a sick note.
