In my experience, ARRS funds reduce pressure on other services, not on GP practices. The same £1.3 billion of ARRS funding would pay for over 15,000 new GPs. pulsetoday.co.uk/news/workforce…
@DrLindaDykes Were patients specifically consented for the fact that a non doctor was performing the procedure? What constitutes appropriate experience? The majority of patients would assume someone operating on them had a medical degree thus this is lying by omission

First of all, PAs aren’t a profession, secondly it is right and proper to tell everyone to discriminate between real doctors and your idiot army of quacks who are impersonating medical practitioners, and who through such stunts YOU are encouraging to hurt and kill patients👇

Raising patient safety & workplace concerns in the NHS can be pretty damn scary The powers above don’t take kindly to whistleblowers & I’m fully aware of how vulnerable we are as individuals. Institutions using “be kind” as a threat to silence us. To all those risking their…
'Professional discrimination' is something you just made up. Could homeopaths claim 'professional discrimination' against the entire scientific community? Profession is not a protected characteristic (see below). Also, PA is not a profession. Get a grip @StGeorgesUni, jeez.

Future of the NHS: PA sends pt to A&E: abdo pain ?cause. PA clerks as abdo pain ?cause & refers to surgeons. PA does the post take WR & asks the F1 to req CT abdo for pain ?cause. Radiologist makes the dx. Surgical care practitioner does the lap chole + AA anaesthetising.

@DrLindaDykes Tbh I don’t care how long they were a nurse for, it’s not surgical training. I’ve never understood this “well they did this other thing for a long time, so they can bypass established pathways and knowledge” You could be an OT for 1000 years, doesn’t give you medical knowledge
@Xeon4f145d96s1 @DrLKVaughan "When you put all these dog shit studies together, and make it into a 'body of evidence'. Then it gets used in policy and enacted by government" "But how can they do that? Don't people know what's in them?" "Nobody looks at what's in them!"
@anonmedica51766 @StGeorgesUni anytime. I am also watching equating this issue with discrimination And i would strongly encourage all concerned to read up about protected characteristics and not trivialise what people who face racism or sexism or homophobia go through.
@ExplosiveEnema2 @medicalmodelbri @RCHTWeCare @emergingcannula @Xeon4f145d96s1 @AllisterJGrant @Stevemw39 I think given that GMC now have said we should raise it locally? Perhaps the RCP should now formally raise with Trusts And check how supervision works for every patient- presume with senior present at all times
"Professional Discrimination" What rights are being infringed upon? The right to graduate alongside doctors? Is that a thing? What immutable characteristic do PAs possess? The use of this language in this way is insidious

@parthaskar @ExplosiveEnema2 @medicalmodelbri @RCHTWeCare @emergingcannula @Xeon4f145d96s1 @AllisterJGrant @Stevemw39 I think every single instance of role replacement should just be flagged individually to GMC such that it clogs their inboxes. Then they actually have a vested interest in it not happening, rather than hand waving and asking trusts (the perpetrators) to sort it.
The current reality for doctors: Hospitals plugging doctor gaps with PAs who can’t do half of what a doctors does (and can’t safely do 90% of what a doctor does) The result is double the work for the doctor + increased risk on their medical license with every shift
General MAP Council has washed its hands of its purpose, which was to keep the public safe by clearly delineating who is a qualified doctor and who is not. Should be taking action against individual PAs who accept doctors' shifts and act way above their competence. They won't.

So.. In relation to PAs From: 'Anon' accounts are 'toxic/symbolic of social media noise/ to be ignored' To: @gmcuk Medical Director replying to an 'Enema' @RCHTWeCare replying to a 'Pizza' (& getting community noted)& debating with a 'Cannula' It's been a journey #AnEpicMess
@RCHTWeCare @emergingcannula @Xeon4f145d96s1 A comms team debating with a cannula and a pizza. Can I kindly ask @AllisterJGrant @Stevemw39 to perhaps have a word with the relevant comms personnel to avoid this getting worse? Much appreciated

@helloworldbbd @medicalmodelbri @NHSEngland @RCPhysicians 4 years? I had to get to clinical service lead of a department then had to go begging, then when it broke within a month they wouldn't replace it. Gave up.
@GMCharlatan @19MW98 @InvCoriolis @StGeorgesUni 100%. But the funny thing is they're far from cheap in any regard. Missed diagnoses, unnecessary referrals, incorrect treatment all end up costing a great deal in the long run. And that's to say nothing of human cost, of course.
@InvCoriolis @StGeorgesUni All they need to do is tell us the unique thing that PAs bring to medicine. Even if it’s just that they’re cheaper than consultants (shout out to Alder Hey for admitting that). They just need to say it out loud. Surely that would be easier than amending the Equality Act?
Hey @RCSnews, I know you look at your twitter. You would probably do quite well to answer the very reasonable question. Why are @RCSnews supporting dedicated surgical training for PAs when doctors are fighting to get any theatre time at all?
@DrEilidhMaria @RCSnews are you supporting the fast tracking of surgical training for PAs over and above doctors? @RCSnews should explain what the point of medical school, foundation training, surgical training and MRCS is, if you don’t need any of it to wield a scalpel 🤷🏽♂️
