AI drafts a d/c letter that requires a resident and consultant review 😂. Where is the efficiency gain? when it adds additional work for the most senior clinician, and the original drafter still has to edit it! @iDrSunny give us a business perspective.

UMAPs threatening to sue any Trust or PCN that follows the leng review guidance. Good Job PAs earn so much - looks like they’ll be burning through their pay packets to fight this out with everyone. Or they could accept the glass ceiling that’s coming in…
**Breaking** . UMAPS has LOST its application for an interim injunction, pending the hearing of its JR claim, to stop NHSE / SoS from implementing the Leng Recommendations. UMAPS wanted an interim injunction to preserve the current status quo (& uncertainties) pending the.

Don’t fall for the ragebait Doc - This is actually good news for the NHS and I support more qualified nurses over nursing ?associates and HCAs. He wants you to look bad / entitled in the comments. We have our issues, AHPs have theirs too. But this is positive for all.
Student nurses and midwives sounded the alarm about the risk of unemployment this summer and we’ve acted. Working together with @theRCN and @MidwivesRCM we’re making thousands more jobs available so graduates can take up the jobs they’ve worked so hard for.

And why can’t we reduce the length of medical training? - primarily making it competency based 🤨.
@waterman_harry @SimonGreasley @Megsenmumdr @neurosurgerySpR They have a lot of supervised training and have to produce a very detailed portfolio. The ones on the NHSE programme attend a mental health law course. We are going to need even more ACs with the changes to the MHA, we just aren’t making psychiatrists fast enough.

This is why I tell all new doctors and med students not to believe the ‘be nice to the nurses’ bullshit. Be respectful to everyone but pull people up who are rude.
Doctors are told to be kind to everyone because otherwise our lives could be “made miserable.”. But kindness is a two-way street. How about everyone also being kind to doctors? . That “otherwise” is a threat no professional should have to walk on eggshells about.

Love this from BOA. Though now ever more obvious the glaring difference in pay for people who can do less than a D1 doctor.
Unequivocal from our orthopaedic colleagues. No Physicians Assistants in outpatients or theatres. Resident Doctor training prioritised. As it should be.
