Dr Bill's Everest Base Camp Challenge https://t.co/NpnHo4Qp8x A New Women’s Refuge will be under construction soon and a Kit-out-the-Refuge fundraising campaign is underway. Please support this very worthy cause! https://t.co/26oH4E0SwC #Wexford@RunRefuge
Let’s get the supports in place first! I’m talking: Advanced Nurse Practitioners, Practice Nurses, Phys Assis, HCAs, Admin etc. Prioritise Recruitment & Retention eg incentives to retain 1:4 GPs >60yo eg flexibility, pensions etc @roinnslainte @DonnellyStephen @SouthEastRadio
IMO warns that Government policy risks overwhelming GP service
“The system will struggle with the increased demand of 500,000 free GP visit cards.”

I referred a child for the 4th time yesterday to CAMHS (3 previously rejected/deflected). We URGENTLY NEED REFORM!! A central referrals agency for Child Mental Health must be advanced plus significant resourcing. @paulreiddublin@HSELive@roinnslainte
With (un)planned extension of GMS eligibility, compelling case for GP staff to enjoy HSE staff status. New supports for nurse practitioner/prescribers urgently required as outside of the Pale impossible to recruit/retain GPs! @HSELive@roinnslainte@IMO_IRL
Not a runner because of staff & infrastructure deficits. Daytime GP service needs additional supports to continue….Let’s start with staff employment status & contracts! @roinnslainte@imo@HSELive
TEMPORARY SUPPORT MEASURES FOR CURRENT DEMAND IN GENERAL PRACTICE announced today look like stealth moves by HSE to introduce evening and Saturday morning GP clinics.
No thanks, the week is long enough already.

Interestingly Asimov also said “People who think they know everything are a great annoyance to those of us who do”
not to mention….
“violence is the last refuge of the incompetent”

Now Billy, you know that’s grossly inaccurate! Your practice gets more state supports than your urban colleagues and as a result you are able to offer more to your patients! Best wishes as always.
How about getting your tiny tots to do our Ring of Beara Kids' Cycle?! It's fiercely competitive, very fast, tons of fun, and incredibly sweet. And it's FREE! Sign up on the day this Saturday in Kenmare.
