Just read Phil Whitaker's BMJ 2016;353:i2571 about GPs. Beautifully written. The challenge is for us to protect this in new models of care
Pace Setter - a great example of the professional ownership of quality. Primary care buzzing. The challenge is to help this to spread widely
All the Pace Setter awards given now and well deserved. Great news- the RCGP endorsed the programme - quite right too!
Pace Setter - a great example of an important dimension of quality - being responsive - improving how it feels to be cared for
Greensand Health Centre - building dialogue with their patients using Facebook - enables real time feedback and response to themes.
Great examples - not rocket science! Great idea of a fast track passport for safety netted feverish children. Early days - very promising...
Pace Setter is founded on using 'the wisdom and intelligence of those we look after' Really effective especially in improving teen care
In Pulborough in Sussex celebrating great local care with Pace Setter awards. Great examples of community centred care
We must hold those in power to account and ensure they protect General Practice as the Jewel in the Crown of the NHS
"I call again now for the immediate suspension of CQC inspections because the service just can't cope with it"
General Practice needs a future that will attract young medical graduates looking for a rewarding career in medicine
"The RCGP is calling for an emergency package of measures, backed with funding to pull GPs from the brink"
Maureen Baker @ LMC Special conference "We're all here because we share the same passion for General Practice"
7/7 working - just done BBC H&W - essential we don't spread the jam of routine GP too thinly and risk patient safety & GP sanity.
