@parthaskar says it like it is. Thanks for being a SAS ally. Needed more than ever. @theSAScollect
Partha S Kar 🇮🇳🇬🇧🏏🎥@parthaskar
A quick trip to Birmingham This time? For the @rcpsych SAS colleagues event. Always and forever an ally - raising the issue at hand of not being treated at par. I will repeat- if @NHSE_WTE @NHSEngland @DHSCgovuk spent a fraction of their energy in supporting SAS colleagues compared to the desperate attempts to have lesser trained people do healthcare beyond their scope? The #NHS would be a far better place And safer. It’s also no surprise why they don’t. The exact same reason LED doctors are treated the way they are. I said what I said. #Bias #NHS

Today, we’re proud to launch Breaking the Cycle - a new report from @rcpsych, @lookaheadtweets and the @natfednews on the vital role of supported housing in mental health discharge.
The report shows that shortages in supported housing are leaving people stuck in hospital long after they are clinically ready to leave – putting huge pressure on the NHS and delaying recovery.
📉 In 2024/25 alone, delayed discharge linked to housing shortages led to 121,695 additional mental health bed days, costing the NHS an estimated £102m a year.
🏠 Supported housing isn’t just cheaper than inpatient care – it enables people to recover, rebuild their lives and thrive in the community.
👉 Housing must be treated as healthcare.

As the sun sets over this #InternationalWomensDay let's continue to celebrate all women & women doctors- now the majority of the medical workforce.
But remember that celebrating them means fighting the gender pay gap every day, and for SAS women, the unacceptable fact here:
