@Keir_Starmer @UKLabour If you fund a service that can afford to meet ‘wants’ then fine. At the moment the NHS can’t reliably meet needs.
You’re setting expectations of caviar but funding mushy peas.

@mgtmccartney This sounds so interesting. Who would benefit from attending? Useful at Partnership level?

A message for @wesstreeting
We know you’re busy with residents, and probably consultants soon, but could you spare a few hours to have GP chats please?
Basically, we need you to say ‘get on with it’. We know what we’re doing and we know how to do it. By all means chuck in a few useful parameters such as personal lists and continuity, which have a decent evidence base, but access requirements will only detract from GP-delivered care.
You need to trust us. I don’t know what you think our motivation is, but I can assure you it’s patient wellbeing.

@wesstreeting profession needs to give 3 months notice of an indefinite walkout unless some reasonable demands: a promise to restore pay soon; reconstitution of the DDRB terms of reference which averted industrial action for so long; & making a sensible number of training places. Gloves off

📝 The Opus
Referrals aren't clinical summaries anymore. They’re legal arguments. They’re auditions for care.
What happens when a failing system decides a patient's pain isn't worth a consultation, but a performance.

@2manypeople4me @anish_k_patel In an ideal world yes. Triage is time precious and no time for this and for the system to work. We need an automated solution….Or use our @Accurx data 🤷🏻♀️

@hennymiddle @anish_k_patel This is what GPs should be doing - if it requires entering a pt's records, making an assessment and a clinical decision, it should be recorded as an appt

A must read about GP workload

Seb@SebPillon
Today's adventure in being a UK GP shows why the system is creaking. Of 30 patients on my list today, 3 were GP problems; rest are waiting for definitive secondary care treatment. Manager added our actual GP work (hypertension reviews) as extras because we have no time anymore.

@wesstreeting We currently wait several months for the reporting of such scans. (Shropshire) More scanners won’t help this.

@PrimaryCareNHS The irony. Too busy triaging I’m afraid. How about putting this on when most GP’s can attend, have you even been in a GP surgery on a Monday?😉

@DrHuw In her first pregnancy, my GP wife was small for dates, had oligohydramnios and breech. Agreed with consultant an elective section would be safest. Yet every other interaction was someone trying to pursuade her to have a ‘natural birth’. Felt under real pressure.
