“Hard to reach”
“Disengaged”
“Being difficult”
“Not responding”
Make sure you check it’s not
“We are inaccessible”
“We are not communicating right”
“The service is too complex”
“Our resources are not universal”
What we in #NHS find “easy” is not the same for everyone we serve

PATIENT JOURNEYS - DAILY
GPs do a lot for the #NHS with ~8% of the budget
Although hospitals may have multiple encounters with one patient GPs are responsible for the vast majority of individual patient contacts
10% of the population will consult each week

Thank you Doctor magazine @bmj_latest for visiting me @Projectsurgery1 in @NewhamLondon recently. Face to face appointments are an important part of what GPs do but not the only part. Nothing is as important as a trusting relationship with continuity
Government & @NHSEngland continues to expect GPs to do more with less
GPs have managed to do this for most of the past 13 years & have been the most efficient part of the #NHS
But the limit has been reached
GPs are now leaving / handing back contracts / breaking

Every day, we must work safely, effectively and confidently beyond guidelines and single diseases to deliver tailored, whole person care. This is the knowledge work of front-line general practice. In 2017 you told us that you aren't supported for this work. So we set up WiseGP.🧵
We all paid Michelle Mone's company millions of pounds for useless PPE - but our nurses are having to strike for a fair wage. Follow the money with @DrMeenalViz
In order to make the book Compassionate Leadership accessible, it is now available as an audio book (I narrated it) - see https://t.co/vI6aeroroe and https://t.co/Ncyi0vqgJk
