Passed passed passed, can’t believe I’ve done it- I’m a PA 😄

[Kia (kai-a) @kiapicanto97]

@thegradmedic This is why I picked PA, I’d already started my family and wanted to stay local to my area- just couldn’t justify not earning a salary for another four years after undergrad.

350 doctors training in anaesthesia have been told that there is no job for them after 3 years of training.

That’s despite the current shortage of anaesthetists.

This is shambolic, senseless and cruel, and needs to be addressed imminently.

Please RT if you agree.

11-15 April will be the next round of Junior Doctors strike action in England.

The Government is still refusing to make a credible offer - or any offer at all - to resolve our dispute. Read more: https://t.co/QLr4vbxHF9

Absolutely unbelievable energy at the Newcastle RVI picket and subsequent pay rally today - easily a couple of thousand people here to fight for fair pay. An incredible success on the part of the organisers - and we need to maintain this pace! #DoctorsStrike #BMA

[Mr Bon Ivor @Bonivorlewis]

No one bats an eyelid paying £100+ for an on call plumber/electrician etc. but woe betide if the doctor who is working out of hours to look after you/your relative is asking for more then £14-£15.

[Danny Wong (黄永年) @dannyjnwong]

Why is it controversial that a professional, who has studied for >5 years of university and picked up skills that most other people cannot do, should earn more than someone who does a job that doesn't require as much training or expertise?

The Taliban have CANCELLED previous divorces in Afghanistan, and BAN women from divorcing.

Women who divorced before the Taliban takeover, mostly due to abuse, may now be labeled as adulterers & face imprisonment and violent punishment.

Horrifying!

Today, all universities reopened in Afghanistan after winter break, but ONLY for men.

These brave young women are peacefully protesting outside Kabul University against Taliban BAN on women going to university.

Let us amplify their voices!

@JadeRus45442176 That’s amazing, thanks for that 😁

[Kia (kai-a) @kiapicanto97]

Any PAs doing diplomas atm? Im aware of the fsrh one but just trying to get an idea of what’s out there for primary care PAs

[Kia (kai-a) @kiapicanto97]

@JadeRus45442176 Oh wow, I may look into that!! Who is it through?if you don’t mind me asking

[Mr Bon Ivor @Bonivorlewis]

To all #physicianassociates the @FPARCP guidance is clear. Do not take on more than your contracted role during strike days. Do not take on additional overtime, this undermines the strike. Only do exactly what you would do on any other day.

[Kia (kai-a) @kiapicanto97]

@anonPA5 Oooo bet that’ll be good

[Kia (kai-a) @kiapicanto97]

@PAalice19 Literally just seen a tweet about this!! Thank you

This is Sumaya. She has been locked up at home for 491 days, banned from going to school or university by the Taliban.

She pleads the world to listen. She begs Afghan girls to try & learn any way they can at home, so that they can rise and stand up for their basic human rights.

Be teachable. You’re not always right
