Asking for an NHS literally on its knees @Jeremy_Hunt... Do you still agree (with yourself) its "crazy not to fix this" and are you still "on the case", Mr. Chancellor? RT if you want the chancellor to fix this 👇
Replying to @RoshanaMN
Thanks for reaching out @RoshanaMN I've been raising the pensions issue repeatedly & it was a key recommendation in our recent workforce report. It is crazy not to fix this when there is such a big capacity crisis in the NHS - will keep on the case... publications.parliament.uk/p…

Here’s a nice thing. The TV version of This Is Going To Hurt is all about the mental health of doctors, and culminates with the death by suicide of a junior doctor called Shruti (spoiler alert). There is a scene where a tree is planted in her memory, shot at Ealing Hospital. 1/3

Congratulations @GemLJones10 on receiving a @GivingVoiceUK award for raising awareness of SLTs in leadership roles within the MDT and how SLT was able to add so much to a patient's physical and psychological recovery. #RCSLTAwards

NEW: a common response to reports of hospitals struggling this winter is "it’s no different to a bad flu season!" I’ve tracked down historical data on flu ICU admissions, including winter 2017-18, a record high. Here’s how England’s Covid winter compares to a bad flu season 📹

This was my hosp, staff and pts in the first wave. The thought of going thru this again is tough but it’s the reality we’re facing; not just ITU as ED & medical wards are baring the brunt at the moment. Keep putting one foot in front of the other guys, we can do this 1/2

Staffing Critical Care is currently proving extremely challenging for us. Therefore, we are seeking Registered Nurses, ODPs and Paramedics, who would be willing to join us temporarily and on a flexible basis to support with some shifts. 🌈
