@NHSBartsHealth inaugural LTFT Forum on MSTeams at 4pm today. Link in latest MedEd bulletin. I have been trying to do this for years! Good things have come out of the pandemic. Hoping I get some attendees!

@doctorrah @HollyYo88393747 @RCoANews @BMA_JuniorDocs @AoMRC @susannacrowe Culture change on flexible working practices in medicine is only possible if we reach the consultant body! And that means demonstrating how it can work in practice @FlexNHS

The SuppoRTT programme is still only being accessed by 23% of eligible trainees. So important that this is advertised regularly to trainees and trainers alike

🚨JUNIOR DOCTORS: a few points on Redeployment🚨: - Firstly, it should be voluntary. You should not be forced to move. - All other options should have been exhausted (eg: use of returners, utilisation of other staff within your Trust) (🧵1/9)

@tobyeyre82 Congratulations Toby!!

My PhD supervisor brought a whole box of transparent masks so I could lipread - completely unprompted. I'm crying - inclusivity done right

I’ve written to Mr Hancock to ask where the 5.7% figure comes from. It doesn’t quite fit with what we are being told by colleagues around the country nor what I’m seeing in my own hospital. We didn’t say 1 in 4 were off sick but did that they were self-isolating @RCPLondon

Our partnership saw 2 patients face to face since Friday who lied about symptoms when screened for coronavirus prior to appointment. Both tested positive. It’s happening a lot at the moment as some people just want to be seen. Patients: think before risking NHS lives @TeamGP

So tell me - why do Boris and Matt get to be tested?
