disabled students are told this is “fair”, and that our needs can be “accommodated later”, despite pre-allocation being the only mechanism designed to prevent harm before it happens.

[medical (large language) model @anarchomed]

denied pre-allocation for multiple health conditions, so I guess I may never work as a doctor after all these years and pounds of studying! cool!

[medical (large language) model @anarchomed]

to the “you knew what you signed up for” folks: no. the rug was pulled from me halfway through my degree. academic performance was removed, and placement is now determined by a random number generator. this was never part of the contract we entered into.

@Anisocyte The PA profession in US was historically designed to upskill army medics. As a result programs require a hefty # of pt facing hours before you even start. US students arrive with a very different baseline both academically and clinically

[medical (large language) model @anarchomed]

@Anisocyte Here is a document I compiled of program requirements (UK vs US). There are many other non-coursework requirements for acceptance onto a US course that I go over in this https://t.co/Rsrx7eII5o

US evidence has consistently been used to justify the introduction of PAs in the UK. However, UK PAs have had so many important elements removed that they have morphed into something entirely different.

@RoyalLondonOrth this is the way to do it! congrats all

@ExplosiveEnema2 @lengreview It's amazing how he feels so strongly about this, yet couldn't write the post himself. Pure ChatGPT.

#NHS treats it’s Resident Doctors appallingly

From random allocation of jobs, lower pay, little options for choosing holidays & days off, limited parking, no provision for food overnight, no office space, moved from job to job every 4-6months

Add £100k plus student debt

[Dr Luke Craddock @DrLukeCraddock]

I don’t think you’re grasping how apathetic doctors are right now.

Legitimately all the perks of a career in medicine are dead, our job security is gone, our pay eroded, our student loans crippling, our assistants are paid more than us.

We have no more to give.

[invertedcoriolis @InvCoriolis]

There is no role for PAs in primary care.

[Hinesh @ChironSen]

Reading through UK MedReddit, I’m truly gobsmacked at the state of postgraduate medical training.

Hundreds, if not thousands, of doctors are being denied access to further training because the government has refused to proportionately increase training numbers

The NHS is crying out for doctors, yet at the same time, we’re forcing many into unemployment and denying them further training

@wesstreeting , what is the plan? Many cannot afford to wait years for reform, urgent change is needed now. At the very least, there must be accountability for this colossal failure in workforce planning

@Tobeyeus @DCH17122019 @louisecoatesuk @rcgp @KamilaRCGP No, there is a level of preparation aside from those few clinical hours undertaken during the course that UK PA programmes simply do not match

[medical (large language) model @anarchomed]

"As they do in the US"

[medical (large language) model @anarchomed]

@Tobeyeus @rcgp @KamilaRCGP Extraordinarily different. UK PAs cannot be compared to US PAs

[medical (large language) model @anarchomed]

"As they do in the US"

[medical (large language) model @anarchomed]

@tsoburol @rcgp @KamilaRCGP Tim, if PAs are so talented, why do they need consultants like you running PR campaigns for them instead of, oh I don’t know, just proving themselves with actual competence?

“Defend” is an interesting word choice for whatever it is that Tessa did here

[LBC @LBC]

"Did you ever consider becoming a doctor?"

Tessa calls LBC to defend physician associates... but would 'rather not answer' Matthew Wright's questions.
