This is not how anyone should gain experience or credibility in medical training. It may be compromising his contractual rest and therefore safety, and if this is how you climb the ladder then it is actively discriminating against those with caring responsibilities etc.
Impressed by our FY1 in theatre today, volunteering on his day off. He’s set on core training in theatre, scrubbed for every case, retractor in hand. This lad’s going far!

These stories are so informative and will be (anonymously) part of my submission to the review of medical education and training. Why would anyone choose to join a profession treated so badly!
Accused loudly in front of staff in a local ICU by the sister of stealing when making a coffee despite my name being on a list on the cupboard door of staff who’d paid into the coffee fund. No apology either when I pulled her up on it. Total lack of respect for doctors often!

As a new FY1, having just certified my very first death - on a very, very, long night shift - I made myself a cup of NHS tea. The nurse in charge subsequently threatened me with disciplinary action for ‘stealing’. As a new ICU Registrar in Aus, I was asked for my address - so
Overworked, underpaid, and subjected to unnecessary hostility. An NHS doctor was prevented from accessing the ward kitchen for a simple glass of tap water. It’s no surprise so many doctors are leaving for countries where they’re valued, respected, and treated with basic dignity.

I told this story to one of our local aspiring female intensivists and was so sad to hear she had a similar experience a few years back. Fortunately, she’s now got 4 kids, doing a great job on our ICU and still wants to be one of us!
🔥Have been incensed about something all day…. Women are the majority of medical students in the UK, yet there are still pockets of the medical profession where dinosaurs are alive, well & roam the earth. Turns out my own clinical specialty (ICM) is sadly one such place…. 1/8

6/ All in all its a very dissapointing state of affairs. Its causing huge stress for @nhs_pensions members and leaving them in great financial uncertainty with difficulty planning their finances. RT if you agree this is unnaceptable. https://t.co/jCPYhy4ZHd
