“Hundreds” of final year medical school students may only get a few weeks’ notice of where they will be placed for their first jobs, @BMAstudents has warned. @NHSEngland said foundation schools were working quickly to confirm arrangements buff.ly/3xRiTit
Hundreds of UK final year medical students have been told by their foundation schools that they could only get three weeks notice of what hospital and city they will start working in.....🧵
"The fate of medical students, and the future of our profession, hangs in the balance." Our MSC co-chairs @shivani_g22 @CNnadi_ address #MedStudentConf on how we can make change together.
Always a great time talking about @TheBMA - Lots of reasons for students to join: gaining leadership experience, educational resources, career info that med school doesn't teach & more! One of the strongest Trade Unions in UK & we've got more to do for Med Students in the future!
Thanks @BMJStudent & @eabhaaa for asking to contribute below. @BMAstudents are committed to lobbying for a foundation programme allocation process that minimises undue stress: The UK Healthcare system is full of it, and a good 1st step would be improving the entry to F1/2!

We have overwhelmingly voted to reject the Government and NHS England’s 2024/25 GP contract changes. More than 19,000 GPs and GP Registrars took part in the BMA’s referendum, with over 99% voting ‘no’. Our message can't be any clearer. bma.org.uk/our-campaigns/… @doctor_katie
Med Students: I'm running for @TheBMA UK Council to be one of 3 Med Student members. Deadline to vote is Monday 8th April - it's by post so check your home/uni addresses, A vote for me is one for experience in education & being best placed to creating change!
Med Students have many allies against the UK Foundation Programme change moving SFP (Specialised Foundation Programme) onto the PIA computer-generated ranking. Thanks to medical academics across the UK with @NIHRresearch, @BMA_Academics & more below: thelancet.com/journals/lance…
Congrats to all the @QMULBartsTheLon finalists finishing their exams this week! @shivani_g22 & Varvara
#Barts900 Always great to hear about the past, present & future of @NHSBartsHealth & @QMULBartsTheLon with Prof. Sir Mark Caulfield, Inspiring stuff!

NHS Bursary 24/25 application is mysteriously delayed as they 'wait for confirmation of rates'... Please have fixed it so Med Students aren't just given ~£4000 to live on a year! #LiveableNHSBursary

All F1s at this deanery, as a collective, should boycott teaching until PAs are kicked off the F1 teaching programme Either you need a medical degree to practice medicine, or you don’t If you don’t, scrap medical schools, give students back the £100,000 in debt @RCPhysicians
PAs being given direct access to the Foundation Programme While Foundation Drs across the country are sat on placement lists, unsure where they are going to live @NavinaEvans, why are these posts not going to Drs? Why are Drs being replaced? Credit: @Dr_Done_ @AliJaneMoore
This chaos is unsustainable. Doctors and the NHS need stable governments willing to work on a long term basis. Whilst @theSNP and @HumzaYousaf are wasting time playing politics, @BMAScotland junior doctor pay negotiations have been put on standby. It is simply unacceptable.

Turning the BMA around has taken a lot of work. I have been active in the BMA for a decade and I have spent much of that time losing. Some of us have stuck at it, and -through organising- have won people to our vision of a fighting union. Now we have the privilege of building it.
I took part in the 2016 strikes when I was an FY1 doctor. I was so disillusioned by it all I left the @TheBMA for years. As overwhelming as the amount of stuff to sort is, I can’t tell you how amazing it is to have a functioning union again. FY1 Erin would never have believed it!
@AmarHujan It’s really impressive how well the BMA have turned things around in a short period of time. Will have been contributed to by the significant difficulties doctors have faced in recent years but also a testament to the change in approach and hard work from the leadership teams

In case you’re wondering what valuing doctors looks like👇🏼 By contrast, senior doctors in the UK were vilified as greedy when calling for pay restoration, which still wouldn’t match these salaries. The DDRB must take substantial steps to fix this to avoid further unrest.
