Starting @NewcastleHosps next week as a teaching fellow with @NUTHMedEd. Expect a lot more tweeting and hashtags #MedEd #FOAMed

@JasonManford Whitley Bay 6pm tonight 🙌🏼. The joke about the Americans being massive fans of Dion Dublin from Homes under the Hammer. That made my belly ache from laughter

@sainsburys @janpallett I'm trying to check out before the 11am cut off and tried calling the helpline but it keeps cutting out on me as you're busier than normal.

[Dr Rachel Clarke @doctor_oxford]

I’m simply horrified to see @NHSEngland now literally breaking the law in how it misrepresents physician associates & other allied health professional - who are NOT doctors - to the public.

These posters are from the Bradford District & Craven Health & Care Partnership. 1/n

[The BMA @TheBMA]

It’s dangerous to blur the lines between doctors and PAs (not doctors/no medical degree).

This kind of practice is illegal and what @gmcuk should protect the public against.

@NHSEngland must rethink the #itsaGPthing campaign entirely.

[Resident Doctors @BMAResidents]

Our new campaign empowers YOU as junior doctors to negotiate locally and improve wellbeing in your workplace, with the support of local reps and staff.

Tory voters…

Tell me

What goes through your minds when you see this?

[Nadia Carpenter @NadiaSG10]

In other unrelated news. Had my 3rd KIT day at @NorthumbriaNHS today. They have designated rooms for expressing mums returning to work and offer cool bag for the EBM. I also enjoyed my free lunch which they are giving through January

[Nadia Carpenter @NadiaSG10]

Curious to know @DameJackieD thoughts on this...? https://t.co/KFyOjrGXCq

[Nadia Carpenter @NadiaSG10]

@GuvnaJohn @NorthumbriaNHS @NewcastleHosps Not the first time they have done this either.

[Nadia Carpenter @NadiaSG10]

It took 6 phone calls, multiple transfers to the wrong department, 2 of your representatives hanging up on me by accident and a visit to an @o2 store where even then it took 2 hours to get it sorted.

[Nadia Carpenter @NadiaSG10]

Shout out to Mohammed at the @o2 store in Newcastle who without, I would not have been able to cancel an @o2 number I had never used due to their inadequate and frankly incompetent telephone customer care. Honestly, he went above and beyond. You have a gem there @o2

@matthewbowker See you in April/May when I am back from mat leave 👋🏼

[Nigel D'Souza @mrnigeldsouza]

To understand the medical brain drain from UK to Oz, look at my🇦🇺 fellowship payslip.

Fortnightly salary = 12470 AUD = 6528 GBP.

= £170 000 per annum as a trainee.

UK consultant salary = £88 000 p.a.

We will lose our best doctors from the UK if we don’t fix this.

[Mehul Parekh @mevparekh]

Consultants who bought their properties 10 years ago: If you couldn’t afford to buy your current property at its current valuation, at the current comparable salary you’d have now, you should probably be striking.

[The BMA @TheBMA]

Rishi Sunak said today at #PMQs that rising NHS waiting lists is down to industrial action.

Well how about the last 13 years of rising waiting lists?

[Dr Robert Laurenson @RobLaurensonD4P]

Do the fair and reasonable thing @DHSCgovuk

#FullPayRestoration

[Ben Beska @Beska]

The most surprising thing about the ballot result is that thousands of consultants across numerous different specialties actually agreed with one another

[Russell Brand @rustyrockets]

Notice that since the pandemic the key workers - like Doctor’s, nurses, teachers, train drivers have all had to strike to get reasonable, decent working conditions. We should all support them in any way we can because what was true in the pandemic is true now - they hold society together with their work and their spirit. Support the junior doctors they deserve more than “rainbows”. #DoctorsStrike #JuniorDoctorsStrike
