[Locum's Nest @LocumsNest]

#HealthTech can help make a difference in the fight against #COVID19 we all need to rally around @NHSEngland and #OurNHSPeople to support them by providing the tools they need to carry their vital work @HealthITNews @NHSX @NHSProviders @NHSAccelerator

Our wonderful wonderful local historic hotel @StMagnusBay is keeping us going with food at the surgery despite having no guests. Let’s fill their rooms when this is ‘over’.

[Ben Herring @drbherring]

I'm not the only doctor who works outside medicine who is itching to pick up a stethoscope & help with COVID-19. Will @RishiSunak support businesses to allow those with appropriate skills to the front line? @NHSEnglandMedia @DHSCgovuk @MattHancock @bbchealth @itvnews @SkyNews

[Stephen Kelly @SKellyCEO]

#workforce is the key to the future of #primarycare and #flexiblework needs to be a part of this to ensure all parties are included @rcgp #primarycarenetworks

[Royal College of General Practitioners @rcgp]

Today we've written to @MattHancock warning that general practice has been running on empty, and urging him to take urgent action to support and expand the GP workforce.

[Ben Herring @drbherring]

Interesting news, but not surprised. The emphasis on recruiting 'Full Time' GPs is consistent but with current trends should we also be supporting productive #flexibleworking in #primarycare?
