@LittlePersonDoc @Xeon4f145d96s1 They're doctors for the same reason medics are doctors in the US: their professional qualification is a doctorate. Being a pharmacist rather than a physician doesn't change that. This is a non issue over there, why are medics in the U.K. crying about this?

[HCP @GoOnFlogMe]

@Xeon4f145d96s1 Strange to be upset about PharmDs using "Doctor" when MDs are professional doctorates too. Also, she was working within her scope, and medics over there actually respect pharmacists and understand when a query is within pharmacy terriroty. Stop throwing your toys out the pram

[HCP @GoOnFlogMe]

@Xeon4f145d96s1 Again, just shows the lack of education of some doctors. Pharmacists in USA are doctors because the pharmacy degree in the USA is a doctoral degree, not because she’s done a PhD,, pharmacists over there are called Dr..XYZ. Touch grass

What sort of nonsense is this? Immigrants are doing well educationally because families put a lot of value and money into their kids education, in my experience, a lot (not all) of the white working class don’t value it as much

I’m on my way to Southampton.

Since the start of the Henry Nowak case I’ve watched people focus on everything except the real issue.

A young lad was stabbed, handcuffed while bleeding and treated like the suspect.

Now there’s a growing public backlash and people are asking serious questions about police training, priorities and institutional bias.

Henry could have been your son. He could have been my son.

Let’s see what happens tonight.

@SandipP61970438 @Xeon4f145d96s1 If pharmacists datix every single error doctors make in a shift, believe me, we’d not get round to checking all the charts, and THEN the real harm would happen. But I think you’re right in that it’d highlight how bad the prescribing really is, so might need to make some changes

[HCP @GoOnFlogMe]

@SandipP61970438 @Xeon4f145d96s1 You doctors on X are freaking weird “I’m sure you datixed them all” - no actually, if I had to datix all errors, I wouldn’t be getting any work done

[HCP @GoOnFlogMe]

@williams2mark @Xeon4f145d96s1 Exactly that. I’ve found most of my interactions on here today quite terrifying and eye opening. I think we should all accept that as humans, we have and will make mistakes.

[HCP @GoOnFlogMe]

@williams2mark @Xeon4f145d96s1 My point was all healthcare professionals make mistakes. Don’t get the smugness in the original tweet about how he caught mistakes by other HCPs when I pick up mistakes made by doctors on a daily basis. Must’ve touched a nerve as they’re completely infallible

[HCP @GoOnFlogMe]

@HaQ_mAn Please point out where I’ve said I don’t like my job. You and your mates are giving the red-pill incel of medicine… my mentions have been hilarious since pointing out doctors make mistakes too, that meme is your reaction to me pointing it out , eww

[HCP @GoOnFlogMe]

@LukeAmos__ @HaQ_mAn So Luke, you’re a trainee GP who doesn’t understand why pharmacists exist other than to double check doctors? If they’re not doing that, why do they exist? Would love to know the view of your colleagues

[HCP @GoOnFlogMe]

@Saynotoquackery @Xeon4f145d96s1 Okay princess pookie pie 😘

[HCP @GoOnFlogMe]

@jim_crawfurd @Lizardwizarde @Xeon4f145d96s1 I think you know what I mean 😂 Doctors can sound very confident and authoritative, but that doesn’t always match their prescribing or pharmacology knowledge. My point is that overconfidence can lead to mistakes when it replaces caution

[HCP @GoOnFlogMe]

@ClearThinker66 @Lizardwizarde @Xeon4f145d96s1 Loool

[HCP @GoOnFlogMe]

@DrHuw @Xeon4f145d96s1 lol what did I say that was horrible?

[HCP @GoOnFlogMe]

@Lizardwizarde @Xeon4f145d96s1 Plus, I genuinely think you know that yourself. Doctors are not very confident when it comes to prescribing, FY1s all the way to consultants. Sometimes even mixing basic drug classes

[HCP @GoOnFlogMe]

@Lizardwizarde @Xeon4f145d96s1 Studies show non-medical prescribers make fewer prescribing errors per script than doctors. Focused training + protocols beat broader training + complexity. Longer med school doesn’t automatically mean safer prescribing

[HCP @GoOnFlogMe]

@Xeon4f145d96s1 @hlnewey Keep joking and the next mistake won’t be so funny. It’s this attitude that causes frequent errors. This is why doctors make more errors than NMPs. Bookmark this for when it happens to you…

[HCP @GoOnFlogMe]

@Lizardwizarde @Xeon4f145d96s1 Yes…it is… but NMPs (which include nurse prescribers) make less prescribing mistakes compared to doctors (anecdotal experience amongst pharmacist but sure studies show this too) so not sure why OP is pointing out their Rx errors as if doctors don’t make more prescribing errors

[HCP @GoOnFlogMe]

@Parody_RCGP The point being made is everyone makes mistakes. But doctors particularly make A LOT of mistakes when it comes to prescribing, particularly compared to NMPs. So I don’t get the point of belittling nurse prescribers and the mistakes they make when genuinely, doctors make more
