Views are my own.#PMpower

[NHS England @NHSEngland]

The NHS is aware of a global IT outage and an issue with a GP appointment and patient record system.

If you have an appointment please do attend unless you are told otherwise. If you need help use 111 online or by phone and in an emergency call 999.

@toptottieNic @pulsetoday Agreed with above comments but what about employer on costs as well?

[Ravi Iyer @RIyerNHSManager]

@RobynJ85 Saw this on another social media site and thought it's spot on

[Ravi Iyer @RIyerNHSManager]

@Kent_LMC The while you wait for hospital appointment poster is very useful Thanks

[Ravi Iyer @RIyerNHSManager]

@OxonCCG @OUHospitals @NHSKMCCG @Kent_LMC Can we get something like this for Kent & Medway please?

[Ravi Iyer @RIyerNHSManager]

So true! New staff who've never worked in general practice consistently say in their first day or two how they never knew how much non appointment workload there is behind the doors of a GP practice.

[General Practice @BMA_GP]

Our #SupportYourSurgery petition highlights the pressures facing general practice and calls on Government to urgently provide funding for more doctors and better services.

@TheIGPM Hi Jo been a long time! Congrats on the role!

[Ravi Iyer @RIyerNHSManager]

Face coverings MUST still be worn when visiting all NHS healthcare settings including GP surgeries. Please do share this information to help avoid NHS staff getting abuse next week.

[Ravi Iyer @RIyerNHSManager]

Powerful but accurate picture of what our practice teams can and do face while just trying to do their job. #TheAbuseMustStop

[The IGPM @TheIGPM]

Every day General Practice staff across the UK suffer abuse from the very people they are trying to help. Please share our video ‘If I die it will be your fault’ to pledge your support https://t.co/TvKC3Ae3PF #TheAbuseMustStop

@TheIGPM @KayFKeane @josianewadey @toptottieNic @NikkiKF @MartinRCGP @RobynJ85 @CNagpaul @Dr_Kasaraneni @DrUrsulaM @drgandalf52 Won't let me join as more than 100 participants 🤷🏾‍♂️🥺

Finally home after 10 days of back to back vaccinating at Sevenoaks Medical Centre.
3 Pfizer & 2 AZ deliveries = approx 4k vaccines given & 10k vaccines given since 7th Jan! 💪🏾
Time to 😴 and spend some time with family b4 it starts again on Monday #PMPower #IGPM

[Ravi Iyer @RIyerNHSManager]

@TheIGPM Any role in general practice is unlike the same role in any other workplace/industry. I truly value my receptionists who do a fantastic job for the practice and patients in what have been exceptional times. Dare anyone who thinks it's easy to do their job for the day.

[Ravi Iyer @RIyerNHSManager]

Working on my birthday at our PCN vaccination centre @ Sevenoaks Medical Centre. Huge thanks to life on high Sevenoaks for the gifted lunch for the hard working vaccination staff and incredible volunteer marshalls.
