I made a poster about breaks and thought it might be useful to juniors in other trusts too so made a generic master copy, if anyone is interested please let me know 😊

Personal experience: ILS trained in final year, carried emergency + cardiac arrest bleeps throughout F1, worked ED so far in F2, due to complete ALS this weekend. Personal opinion: ALS should be scheduled part of FY1 induction, even if only to boost confidence/protect wellbeing
My first weekend of nights as an F1 I attended 5 cardiac arrests. I was so grateful I'd had ALS before I had started. This is a ridiculous and dangerous decision.

Don’t cut doctor’s wages, don’t drag them down in the media, provide them with the correct PPE to stay safe at work, fund the health service they work in, don’t make them move their entire lives across the country every couple of years, don’t try and make the public hate them…
How do you inspire more secondary school pupils to become doctors?

Striking from work unsettles me, even though I do think it’s the right thing to do, so I’m trying to use the time mindfully and positively. Today I am trying painting as therapy 🥲

£100,000 of student debt for £14/hr once graduated Being a Junior Doctor sounds like a rip-off degree to me
Too many students are being sold a university education that won't get them a decent job at the end of it. So I'm cracking down on rip-off degrees and boosting apprenticeships to ensure students get the best deal possible. Widening access. Boosting jobs. Growing the economy.

If you see this guy on TV later trying to justify why NHS staff don’t deserve a decent pay rise, I want you to remind yourself that he owns 9 separate homes.

The 6% “pay rise” the government has announced is still an overall pay cut since 2008. Junior doctors have lost out and coupled with inflation it would require 35% to restore their pay to 2008 levels. 6% is not going to retain an already struggling workforce! 🪧🩺✊
As another round of #JuniorDoctorStrikes kicks off I want to send a thank you to the consultants, SAS doctors, nurses, allied health professionals, and everyone else who’ll be doing a stellar job in our absence. We will be supporting our consultant colleagues next week! 🪧🩺✊

I call this playing with fire 🔥 Very responsible for sure. Strikes will outlive your government if that's what it takes. #fullpayrestoration #DoctorsStrike

Honestly, I think many of my gripes could be fixed by not rotating as often: - Book leave in advance - Embed in team (team invests in you) - End yearly payroll errors - Can live where I work - Get a dedicated work space - Able to solve department problems (not just endure them)
Well it’s taken me years to get a week of annual leave when my kids are off school because I rotated so often. Hint it’s because my training program finished.

I CAN’T VIEW THE MEDICAL ROTA BECAUSE THE NHS NO LONGER HAS A LICENSE FOR MS OFFICE. No money to give public sector the rises the IPRBs say they need, but plenty to spaff up the walls of the Tory donors who clearly own this tech. It’s painful.
This is a great example of the way we’re transforming the NHS to get you the care you need quicker. Providing NHS staff with the latest AI technology will help deliver on my priority to cut waiting lists.

The key is in the smallprint. This includes extra out of hours payments and DOES NOT represent junior dr salaries. The 355 conservative MPs made an extra £15.2million salary since 2019 ( https://t.co/9JVgJ4wfr9) but this is never considered when discussing MPs pay- Why the

Quoting overtime total pay rather than basic pay This is extra hours due to lack of staffing Either way this is not internationally competitive UK losing 10-20% of all Drs every year depending on speciality Pay Drs to stay #PayRestoration

I'd hate for someone not to be able to read that small print!! I am sure you didn't mean to mislead!!! Of course you wouldn't intentionally conflate 48hr weeks with night shifts & weekends and imply the earnings were 9-5 Monday-Friday to the general public, would you???

Look at what's squirrelled away at the bottom there - includes ADDITIONAL EARNINGS on top of basic pay for additional hours and shift work (which is not optional, by the way). When we're asking for the basic pay to be restored, this representation is *interesting*

I know I earn a lot of money compared to many people in the UK, but compared to doctors in other countries and to doctors in this country in the not so distant past, I earn comparatively little. Showing my payslips from past few months to try to give some transparency. Qs welcome
