As a new FY1, having just certified my very first death - on a very, very, long night shift - I made myself a cup of NHS tea.
The nurse in charge subsequently threatened me with disciplinary action for ‘stealing’.
As a new ICU Registrar in Aus, I was asked for my address - so the hospital could send me a thank you hamper.
The NHS is terrible employer.
Just a reminder that domestic abuse will rise tonight due to England’s loss in the final against Spain. Stay safe everyone.

End this madness. Pharmacists are not diagnosticians, they’re experts in medications.
Replacing doctors with other healthcare professions is a false economy, producing more expensive care with worse results.
This is the hill I’ll die on: only doctors should practice medicine
Once again regrettable but necessary 🥴
When doors are closed to our concerns of:
1. Doctors not entering training,
2. Leaving our "wee" country, OR
3. Leaving the job entirely,
Then we have no other option.
The FUTURE of Patient care and Safety is our number 1 priority.
🚨The BMA say junior doctors are leaving Northern Ireland to work elsewhere for better pay and working conditions.
🪧Junior Doctors are taking strike action for the first time ever here.
👩⚕️Chloe and Jenny are Foundation 1 doctors, who’ve already considered moving elsewhere.
Here’s my payslip as a first year doctor in 2005, next to a first year doctor colleague’s in 2023. 18 years later, their take home salary is less than mine was. I lived for free in hospital accommodation and had a fraction of their student loan.
#JuniorDoctorsStrike
As a final year medical student who can’t vote in the #bmaballot tomorrow I ask every single one of you who can to vote for strikes. So many of my peers and I are thinking of leaving the profession before we’ve even started. We need change. We need a pay restoration. Strike hard!
Hi guys, long shot but unfortunately an item very sentimental to my family was donated by mistake into one of the clothing bins located in Westside Galway around September 5th-12th. This was my granny’s rug/blanket that has been passed down through generations (pt.1)
Yesterday I adopted the oldest, sickest, and sorest shelter dog. I'll never forget his eyes. When I went into the cage he didn't even bother to look, he knew I wouldn't even see him. 🤍🤍
This is Muffin. He is the most sophisticated puppy in the world. Doesn't dwell on trivial matters like nibbles and sits. Wants to know the origins of the universe. 13/10
As sirens rang out amid Russia’s attack on Ukrainian cities Thursday, scores were forced to flee their homes.
Some clutched their beloved pets — the cats and dogs they simply could not leave behind amid the barrage of attacks coming from Russia. https://t.co/oij3YCF5Va

My friend Stephen's entire livelihood was stolen from his car today. MacBook, flute, hard drives, mics, in-ear monitors. He is a full-time professional musician & some of these items are irreplaceable. Please share this as much as you can 🙏
