20% of positions unfilled!!!! What other field provides the excellent service that #MedicalScientists do, while working without ⅕ of the staff?????

[John Wallace 🍉 @Astraea_1974]

Government could sort this with the stroke of a pen. Full solidarity with the medical scientists! #medicalscientists https://t.co/jLnDz5sCug

Stopped by @MedLabAssoc picket @RotundaHospital to express gratitude to these workers who have been an essential part of my care for over 6 years. Unsung heroes & unseen essential service deserve parity and equality NOW

21 years ago the hidden heroes of our health service who run the labs were promised pay parity.

21 years on they are still paid 8% less than others doing the same work.

Sinn Féin's @PearseDoherty raises the issue of the medical scientist strike. He said, "medical scientists are paid 8% less than other colleagues that perform identical work in hospital labs." | More: https://t.co/QG4Vf5FTZH

Heard this segment and had the same thoughts… who will be doing the newborn screening- #MedicalScientists yet more tests put on us when we barely have enough staff to cover what we already do.

#MedicalScientists have suspended strike action tomorrow for exploratory talks. I have never been so relieved to get back to work. Well done to all the #MedicalScientists and the local strike committees in all hospitals. Hopefully these talks will be agreeable to all 🤞

[Ian Walsh @ShiftyScientist]

2nd day of strike for Medical Scientists one of the unseen but critical steps in the patient centered service provided by clinical labs. Bio/Haem/Trans/Micro/Histo all pictured whom without, the service doesn't exist.
