@HealthRegLawyer @The_HCPC They are shocking. We are paying for nothing and getting shafted by them at every opportunity.

I am really so sick of the extent to which the HCPC @The_HCPC does not care EVEN REMOTELY about those it regulates. I have a #FitnessToPractise case going on since September 2020 - nearly 4 years hanging over the registrant & putting them at significantly increased risk of death by suicide. Got invited to a short hearing on the case this week. I say "Is this an error, I'm not aware of any upcoming hearing?". Response - "Oh the HCPC decided to discontinue the case against your client, it's just that nobody bothered to tell him. Or you. The hearing is for the HCPC's discontinuance application". There are multiple stages to deciding to discontinue, making that application & arranging a hearing. The registrant is of so little importance to the HCPC that nobody, at any point in the process, thought to inform the registrant himself that his ordeal would be coming to an end. This says EVERYTHING about the HCPC's toxic attitude to registrants, which runs right through the FtP process.

@Dowie1981 @kimberleyseddon Oh dear, listened to the feedback then.......

@RichM83 @kimberleyseddon Boot sorted but the cage is still up against the seats in the front. No draws and no sliding shelf anymore.

What a thing to drive. 👏🏼

@Dowie1981 @kimberleyseddon Did they ever sort out the boot and cage stopping the drivers seat reclining

@kimberleyseddon Was even better when we had ours unrestricted. Best RRV we've ever had.

A cold swim today but well worth it. Still waiting for summer to appear.

Loved every minute of our holiday. Should have booked 2 weeks but we'll be back soon.

Great self development day by Sunday Times best selling author @TheSumoGuy with the Glossop Practices and PCN. Easily the best development day I've been on.

PLEASE BE AWARE our new ad hits hard, shedding light on the critical need to support the mental health of NHS frontline staff. We support around 9,000 people every single week, but we could do even more. Please share & donate. They are there for us, can you be there for them?

@kimberleyseddon I've found that it's more of a take whats on offer. Most places only stock a couple of options but I'm hopeful it will be on draft one day.

Any recommendations for alcohol free beverages to have when out? I’ve not really been drinking for a while now, but bored of the go to elderflower cordial and soda water… suggestions!?

What a fabulous opening show for the @takethat absolutely smashed it.

There’s only one @takethat @SheffieldArena #ThisLifeOnTour

@NWASUnison @NWAmb_Steve @NWAmb_Dan @NWAmbulance Sorry to hear that she was forced to retire and especially after her lengthy service.

@NWAmb_Steve @NWAmb_Dan @NWAmbulance ... Ann was and always will be one of our most dedicated UNISON reps and we all love her and thank her for her dedication to our members. All who know Ann will agree. Xx

Ann & I started together as Ambulance Cadets & it’s been a great career of 39 ½ years, laughing, crying, saving lives, meeting colleagues, making friends & memories that’ll stay with us forever. Thanks Ann, keep giggling through retirement 💚 @NWAmb_Dan @NWASUnison @NWAmbulance

@scousemedic87 I'd sign up tomorrow

@CentennialMedic @YorkParamedics Great to see this exchange program still going well, I did this exchange 13 years ago and it was an experience I'll never forget. Although the drinking age caught afew of us out. We now have Tim Hortons in the UK. Advances in coffee taste.

Day 2 of the UK invasion @YorkParamedics Service and the excitement is palpable! A cross-continental educational adventure. Liverpool John Moores University #ParamedicStudents are soaking in every moment, learning the ropes of Canadian Paramedicine & Pre-Hospital Care. 🇬🇧 🚑 🇨🇦

@life1scott Haha, I never put 2-2 together until now. I'll DM you it. X

@life1scott All the best Angela. Some great memories of V festival cover with you.

@Dowie1981 @mols_wilson Wonder where they hid the safe.

@RichM83 @mols_wilson We did mate got rid of that tray.

Had some fun driving about in our new RRV today 🚨

@PinkhairedPara @jackjoseph94 Yeah I'm not fighting to stay on any bank. Plenty of others that see our value and appreciate our spare time. I've heard similar stories.

@RichM83 @jackjoseph94 I’ve had a lot of colleagues who have left who have had to fight to stay on bank :-/

Why does it seem as though you have to leave the ambulance service to progress in your career 😩 Offered multiple UCP/ACP roles with better pay, and funded masters if I leave YAS. But I don’t actually want to leave YAS 🫣 I just want to progress… why is this so hard?

7am and - 1, A good start to a Sunday.
