Doctors are worth more than £15/hr. It is a national scandal how low the pay is. All we are asking for is a doctor to go up to £21/hr. I think that’s a bargain for someone who can save your life. The question boils down to how much do we value our doctors? #fullpayrestoration

An alarming response to legitimate questions from fee paying medical students. We’ve also had reports of censorship and suppression of open discussion on university platforms. Therefore, next week we will start to obtain the views of BMA members at @StGeorgesUni. We move.

@StGeorgesUni Can I ask what section of the content policy you feel this reasonable question violated? Given the current situation where one of the main issues is PAs being misrepresented as Doctors. Why do you feel it is sensible or appropriate to have these graduation ceremonies together?
"PAs are essential in supporting the care of patients alongside doctors and other health professionals in a broad range of NHS settings." No they aren't. There are clinical services up and down the country in centres of excellence that deliver internationally recognised care…

Well this makes no sense whatsoever. 1. Your FOI response explicitly cited the what constituted a doctors’ shift. 2. How is 726 the total number of PA shifts?! That equates to just 5.58 WTE PAs at the Trust? If you have more PAs than that, this “clarification” is also wrong.

A promising show of good faith by the Welsh government. The pay disputes can only be resolved by talking and this allows more space for talks. When we suggested the same to @VictoriaAtkins, her only concern is how Daily Mail readers would react...

@DrRgoldi @uhbtrust Bold approach from them considering all doctors breaks are paid specifically because their breaks can be and more often than not are interrupted.🤔 You’re probably right that you’re unlikely to be alone in receiving this so I’ll tag my colleagues @WestMidsBMA for good measure.

Someone published the logbook from ONE SINGLE surgical care practitioner in a peer-reviewed journal and then made the leap to suggest that care given by SCPs in general is safe. How did this pass peer review?

@SophieAnnBurges If you're not allowed to prescribe why are prescribing questions on the exam?
The NHS has failed at workforce planning, and despite a doctor shortage, we will have many F2 doctors who next year won't have a job. It's a national disgrace.
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

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
I've got a crazy idea @RCSnews Maybe let surgical trainees actually operate, and let an assistant do the discharge letters?
We need urgent guidance on junior doctors supervising PAs. In view of recent MPTS results this PA should probably have to run everything by the consultant - not the junior doctor.
The current reality for doctors: Hospitals plugging doctor gaps with PAs who can’t do half of what a doctors does (and can’t safely do 90% of what a doctor does) The result is double the work for the doctor + increased risk on their medical license with every shift
This is why the West Midlands have an awful reputation for surgical training, CST’s on the ward while the person in theatre doing the lap chole’s isn’t even a qualified doctor. 30% done in patients with cholecystitis and Pancreatitis 💀 Did the patients even consent to this?
@StGeorgesUni Being a PA isn’t a protected characteristic. Stop co-opting the language of people who experience genuine discrimination with (rightful) criticism of the PA role and how it is being utilised.
@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
@StGeorgesUni You really cannot in all seriousness claim PAs/AAs are “essential”. There is literally nothing that MAPs add to the MDT that is unique, as by definition they can perform only a subset of what qualified doctors do and do better simply because doctors have far more training. n/1
The absolute state of this. Our NHS, degraded & broken by 14 years of underfunding & understaffing. Unforgivable suffering for patients & staff 😔
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.
If @NHSHEE_EoE & @NHSEngland continue to treat our young doctors like this, who can blame them for leaving for places that appreciate and reward them?
@HelenRSalisbury @NHSEngland I’m an F2, applied to nearly 30 jobs for jobs advertised specifically for those finishing F2 Got 2 interviews and 1 job offer in a place far from home in a new city with 1 person who I knew Guess which country accepted me with open arms in a city I wanted with decent pay? 🤷🏻
