@Xeon4f145d96s1 @CommunityNotes Is this what Woke looks like in the NHS?

Another victim to the @CommunityNotes

@Xeon4f145d96s1 @NHSEmployers This wasn’t included in my resilience training

@stefan_tait @mjv__1 Flat heirarchy flat productivity

@mjv__1 It’s because to lots of people status and hierarchy are the only things that matter Productivity? Efficiency? Nope Making sure no one gets “above themselves”? Crucial

@GeoWilding93 @garethe1967 @hope_155 @muddy_gas_doc So audit the times of the day the bin gets full and then arrange for the domestics to attend at the right times. Basic management 101

@garethe1967 @hope_155 @muddy_gas_doc They cannot be in the room every time a bag gets filled though. It’s impossible. And if they have to decant from a over full bag it’s the equivalent to picking up off the floor. Our housekeeper is 9-5 Mon-Fri, imagine if we didn’t empty a single bad Friday 5pm to Monday!

We don’t have the money to do routine tasks so we’ll patronise people into doing it instead. Do these signs exist outside the NHS?

@MarkHol94671226 @implausibleblog It will cost £1bn. Did you know Physician Assistants are paid 35% more than their doctor bosses?

Yes ⬇️

@interview_coma Thanks for duplicating the work

@Justadulbloke @apprenticesurg @RobLaurensonD4P Oh so you’re greedy and want all public service to have pay cuts

@DoctorSpud @apprenticesurg @RobLaurensonD4P Yes when you add in all other public sector pay and all the years of ps pension contributions etc and the fact that the rest of the public sector would be seen off.

Vivek is incredible. We’re so lucky to have him.

@Justadulbloke @apprenticesurg @RobLaurensonD4P £1bn is unaffordable?

@apprenticesurg @RobLaurensonD4P Pay first yes but not 30% as it's unaffordable. Conditions won't change just be a few more staying. You need to change working routines, how you are trained and employed. The empltememt model for JDs seem outdated and they shouldn't pay for training or pref memberships.

@Taj_Ali1 @TheBMA theguardian.com/society/2022/j…

NEW: The British Medical Association (@TheBMA) has called for an immediate halt to the recruitment of Medical Associate Professionals (MAPs) in the UK including Physician Associates (PAs) and Anaesthetic Associates (AAs) on the grounds of public safety.

@Popoporoo87 @ColinaCoco Your very inception was used to divide the discipline of medicine. You are the tool of the conservative government to divide and conquer. You can’t have a race to the bottom with one workforce. You can with two.

The bullying of the Physician Associate profession needs to stop Enough is enough. Doctors misdiagnose patients from time to time, nurses can make mistakes also. We are all as healthcare professionals, bear the weight of responsibility that sometimes our errors cost lives.

@theveindoc @trentconsultant Sheffield, Dudley, Norwhich, Blackpool, the entire south west. Oh and Steve Barclay

@trentconsultant Who said replacement?

If you're a rank and file, common or garden consultant, or a knight/dame of a royal college you need to heed the purpose of physician 'associates' right now and take steps to make amends. Help yes, replacement no.

@barrygravenell @TheBMA But we could afford it in 2007/08 and the treasury has more tax revenue now than back then even when you take into account inflation No new taxes required, just priorities

@DoctorSpud @TheBMA Ah yes pay a ludicrous wage increase, and then have all other public services demanding the same, the amount of people without a clue is unbelievable it really is. Where do you think that money comes from? That's right peoples taxes meaning further hikes that people can' afford

You have totally misunderstood and this post is wrong. Please delete and/or correct your mistake. Tom (a consultant) covered for junior doctors who were on strike at the time. [1/2]

@barrygravenell @TheBMA Absolutely! The Government should pay the £1bn for pay restoration instead of wasting £1.5bn on 25 days of strike days

@TheBMA So what part is misunderstood about a Doctor overcharging the NHS (taxpayer money) to cover a strike shift, and then giving it to your "war chest" to give to fund people striking!!? That is the misappropriation of taxpayer funds in my view!

@LBC @SangitaMyska But there are no strikes in A&E today

‘She has been given paper towels to put on her head to stem the bleeding...' Caller Clare whose daughter has been in A&E since 8:30 am, urges government action on NHS strikes and tells @SangitaMyska doctors must understand they will ‘never’ get a 35% pay rise.

@CastleNotMine @SkyNews

"This country is not valuing its doctors in an international market where doctors can move around the world." Dr Tom Dolphin of the BMA consultants committee explains the impact pay is having on the NHS backlog and staff shortages. trib.al/85TVPds 📺 Sky 501

@carlyfarly69 @barley_roger @SkyNews That’s not negotiation, that’s the government using the rigged pay bodies

@barley_roger @SkyNews The government have negotiated; they gave doctors the pay rise recommended by the NHS… 🙄

@freddieminelli @Dr_XYZ @DocAnonX @wesstreeting But it’s defined benefit not defined contribution…

It’s simply outrageous that neither the Prime Minister nor the Health Secretary are willing to sit down with doctors to avert next week’s industrial action. Doctors don’t want it, patients don’t want it, why won’t the Prime Minister act to prevent it?

@agw1437 @jamiesrobertson @VeeBrien @_VivekTrivedi @RobLaurensonD4P Have you even read the deal?

@jamiesrobertson @VeeBrien @_VivekTrivedi @RobLaurensonD4P The fact they don’t trust the English Govt as much as the Scots should not prevent a deal. That’s why people conclude it must be political. A deal is a practical outcome and trust is irrelevant. It’s agreed or it’s not.

BREAKING: Junior doctors in England have voted YES to further industrial action.   98% voted yes in our #DoctorsStrike ballot bma.org.uk/juniorspay

@tapas321 @TheBMA @RobLaurensonD4P @_VivekTrivedi @Vish_Sharm @RishiSunak

@DoctorSpud @TheBMA @RobLaurensonD4P @_VivekTrivedi @Vish_Sharm @RishiSunak In what way does that affect what you spend every week? 🙄

“Doctors remain ready and willing to negotiate a way out of the current pay disputes.” @RobLaurensonD4P @_VivekTrivedi and @Vish_Sharm form an unprecedented united front to urge PM @RishiSunak to come back to the negotiating table.

@tapas321 @TheBMA @RobLaurensonD4P @_VivekTrivedi @Vish_Sharm @RishiSunak Index linked gilts for Government debt?

@DoctorSpud @TheBMA @RobLaurensonD4P @_VivekTrivedi @Vish_Sharm @RishiSunak Oh do fark off with RPI! By all means complain about rates of inflation on RPI but that's a completely separate matter. The WORLD (except student loans) runs off CPI!
