When I need to call out a plumber I’m grateful to pay £40/h because I don’t have the first clue how to fix my boiler, or the skills to fix a burst pipe

Doctors are asking for half of that, to fix your kids

In life we get the health services we pay for

Great day running our first #simulationtraining course on #mentalhealth and #MSK disorders aimed at #AHPs. Aptly we kicked it off on St George’s Day at St George’s University. Very positive feedback. More days to follow. @AnjuJaggi @RnohTherapies
