@brierl29853@sophielouisecc All doctors are paid the same according to thier place on a pay scale. Does not matter if you are uk trained or an international medical graduate. We are not hiring cheap doctors from overseas. They also have to meet strict Uk exam criteria to work. Same standards if not more!
Bonkers, resident Doctors need to keep fighting for increased training numbers and appropriate salaries for the work they do. It is madness. I remember when NTN numbers were cut. There will be no Doctors left in the uk at this rate.
Any Consultant who wants to suggest the next generation of Doctors make sacrifices for "our NHS" should donate their final salary pension
We're all in this together after all
Isn't that right Miss Vig?

Don't let the ladder hit you as you pull it up
@bananatransit@Xeon4f145d96s1 Does not matter which percentile, training, job pressure, years in getting to senior positions. I was a senior consultant in London and couldn’t afford a decent car purchased with cash ( I don’t do loans). Paid 1000s on pension fiasco. You should never disenfranchise your Drs.
@Northernlurker1@XelenX1 Context: Residence grade jobs esp national training numbers have reduced in amount over the years ( replaced with ACPs and PAs) med school numbers have slightly increased. Net: insufficient training posts to meet the needs of clinical services. Increase training posts = fix
@DrTweXet These people need help , a 2 year course does not make you safe. Let’s get them to sit medical exams to assess their clinical safety. As a consultant for 20 years I still have to question my decisions .
BREAKING:
Israel has just killed Dr. Marwan Sultan in Gaza.
They dropped a bomb on his home, murdering him, his wife, and their children.
He wasn’t a combatant.
He was a doctor who devoted his life to saving others.
ICE officers stopped by our farm yesterday.
“We need to inspect your property for illegal aliens,” one of them said.
I replied, “Alright, but whatever you do, don’t go into that field over there.”
The officer in charge exploded.
“Mister, I have the authority of the federal government behind me!” he barked, reaching into his back pocket. He yanked out a badge and shoved it in my face.
“See this fucking badge? This badge means I can go wherever I want on ANY land. No questions asked, no answers given. Am I clear? Do you understand?”
I nodded politely and said, “Be my guest.”
Then I went back to my chores.
About ten minutes later, I heard screaming. I looked up and saw six ICE agents running for their lives, being chased by my big, mean, old bull. And with every step, that bull was closing in. Fast.
It looked like they were about to get gored for sure.
So I dropped my tools, ran over to the fence, and shouted at the top of my lungs:
“YOUR BADGE! SHOW HIM YOUR FUCKING BADGE!”
@WilsonAndrewDr Question is, if you allow all the allied professionals to do the work that resident Drs do then how will you train the consultants of the future? There will be no one with the required skill sets/ expertise to make real high level decisions in 20 years time as Drs will be 0!

“Physician Associates are non-medically qualified members of a multidisciplinary team working under supervision”
A member of the AA or PA profession should not misdescribe themselves as a medically qualified person- when they are not”

Resident doctors should not be instructed to sign-off potentially unsafe prescriptions.
Today, @DrPhilBanfield has written to Mark Hackett, Interim Chief Executive @UHP_NHS, to raise serious concerns about unsafe working arrangements at the trust.
