Had a full & challenging agenda at PCCC. Very satisfying when hard work & prep pays off.Thanks & appreciation for teams excellent work from the Chair. Love seeing people grow just a little taller with a few words of praise-developing others is important! now a/l to rest & recover

@JaybayCraig @choo_ek 😂 thats a therapy to manage a condition. You don’t hide a condition by using a therapy to manage it. Unless it turns out all those poor souls on chemo are doing so to ensure no one knows they have cancer.

I’m an ER doctor. I’ve seen a therapist and have been on antidepressants. Our system considers this a red flag, instead of a positive signal that I’m taking the best care of myself possible. This needs to change.
Esther Choo, MD MPH@choo_ek
Getting mental health care can be shameful and a career killer for a physician. That needs to change. We also know that COVID has neuropsychiatric effects but do not acknowledge that in return to work criteria. That needs to change.

@choo_ek Openness about how you are coping / managing should never be a red flag. That simply incentivises the hiding of challenges to personal well-being. How does that help the individual OR reduce risk?

@wilfriedzaha I’m so sorry.
Well done for calling it out and reminding those who like to pretend racism is only in the history books that they’re wrong. - they know that of course.

@bearmccormick Digital switchboards the early days.
‘Gary Riley’......’connecting you to gynaecology’
Every time. 😂

Try getting through on the digital switchboard with a Nor’n Irish Accent... it’s a nightmare!!!

Waiting for switch to put me through to the neurology registrar on call. 5 mins later I get the urology reg on the phone... When I did finally get through to neurology I find if I read their letter properly I could have answered my question all along! Doh! Time for a holiday!!

Good work and good luck!

Concur @SamuelHoldenNHS - v nice to come home to. The ‘little things’ are often received as ‘big things’. - Thanks @SimonTapley
Right across @NHSDevonCCG peoples flexibility around hours, area of focus, work setting etc was as swift and far-reaching as it was important.

@mandy_seymour It’s been fantastic to work alongside people I’ve not worked with before / for a long time. All just as committed to supporting and enabling primary care as those of us for whom it’s our regular role.

After 17 weeks of overseeing COVID, the Primary Care Cell is closing down. Had our farewell team call this evening. There were tears and laughter. The overwhelming feedback was a great team experience unified by shared purpose. Such a committed group of people. Thank you!

@nickymitchell13 Good luck. V pleased to hear you have a great team to return too. Stress disorders can manifest themselves in so many (often odd) ways that understanding, consideration and support for each other hugely important.

Tomorrow I return to work after being off since Feb with my #PTSD, to say I’m petrified is an understatement, so much has changed since I was in. No COVID-19, no face masks, no PPE. The one thing I do know is that my team have my back. #newwaysofworking #keepcalm #apprehensive

@julia_cory @ShaunLintern @CMO_England @uksciencechief Feels a little like incentivising risk...amongst those who are less well off and so are more likely to use the vouchers.
English
@ShaunLintern @CMO_England @uksciencechief I’m not sure this is the best idea, encourages people to be in close proximity- is this ‘common sense’ ?
English
I would love to know what @CMO_England and @uksciencechief think about giving vouchers to everyone to encourage people to eat out.

Found this to be a decent read. Was reading through ‘what is digital’ section reflecting I’m guilty of thinking of digital as specific ‘things’ rather than use of digital era thinking...then stumbled across a v small pic of me. ☺️

Grateful for anyone to call me out should I ever be something of a smellfungus.

For the record - my experience was and is that care home workers and providers stepped up to do all they could to battle #covid19

@an50jos @Estonian01 @MartinDaubney @theJeremyVine Thanks @an50jos - though not exactly the rating one would aspire to, also not the case / no longer the case Greece is the only EU country behind UK.

I'm not down on Meghan and Harry, who in many ways I think have done a brave thing by trying to make their own way in the world. But I can't understand why any couple with a young child would want to live in this monstrosity, especially while campaigning for a cleaner planet
