So who knows about video conferencing? 🎥 👩‍🏫

We are about to see a lot of international conferences cancelled with covid-19

Big opportunity to learn how we can effectively communicate science around the world without flying.

Platforms I am using still seem antiquated.

So it looks like the assurances on employment liability for PCN funded staff are not as strong as they first appeared https://t.co/KaJCwRD5T8

Always welcome Paul. NPCCB is growing from strength to strength as we develop trust, increase opportunities to collaborate eg urgent care in primary care settings and the benefits of working smart across 4 PCNs to maximise our impact.

[PGBaker-NHS @pgbakes]

Grateful for the invite to @CareNorthern Board. Significant and relevant agenda which imho demonstrates the importance of maintaining collaboration at this level / scale.

[Northern Primary Care Collaborative @CareNorthern]

Really???? Have you paid any attention to reaction to PCN specifications?

You will not fuck with my children’s future. You will not destroy the freedoms my grandfather fought two world wars to defend. Fuck off you over-promoted rubber bath toy. Britain is revolted by you and you little gang of masturbatory prefects.

I told my team before the Surgery doors opened this morning that it should be impossible. But because it's you, we have a chance."

[Dr Nikita Kanani (she/her) @NikkiKF]

The pressures our #GPs and practices face are complex and challenging - and it means we face real recruitment and retention issues.

General Practice is the heart of the #NHS - and will remain so through the new contract and more.

I can identify with this too, good to know that others are winging it whilst attempting to maintain a professional aura!
