One in ten patients with #COVID19 will need specialised input when going for surgery.

Guidance from @RCoANews @Assoc_Anaes @UkFssa @RCSnews & @CPOC_News will be invaluable, making sure patient's surgery is safe & appropriate for them. @scarlettmcnally

Being a consultant is really hard. And not because of clinical/medicine type stuff. It’s all the political, human interaction, managing juniors, legal stuff that you can’t learn beforehand.😔

@RCSnews Ring fencing beds can only happen when all the other resources to run surgery are also ring fenced. In many places that means continuing to use other Covid lite sites due to the way our hospitals are designed. #ItHasToHappen

From the @bmj_latest⁩. Are these predictions achievable? Discuss....

[@FSSA.org.uk @UkFssa]

The rest of the report makes equally depressing reading. Has the #NHS really survived? In particular, note that there is ‘no plan’ for how to restart dentistry!

[@FSSA.org.uk @UkFssa]

@UkFssa has been calling for regular Covid testing of healthcare workers since the start of the pandemic.

@gmcuk Your new guidance does not specifically mention children in shared decision making and consent. Age is mentioned under capacity so does this guidance apply to all ages?

[@FSSA.org.uk @UkFssa]

New guidance from the @gmcuk on ‘Shared decision making and consent’ comes into force from 9th November.

Hopefully fever hospitals that can be used for elective surgery when not needed in times of crisis!

[Matt Hancock @MattHancock]

I'm delighted that today, we are announcing 40 new hospitals we will build in the 2020s.

We protected the NHS in the peak of #coronavirus & these new hospitals will help to protect it in the future.
