GP employment crisis

Numbers of ARRS GPs seem to be declining already

These are not substantive posts

Money needs to be moved from ARRS to direct employment of GPs in practices

Started as an emergency measure not a permanent solution

Why are we not talking more about the number of resident doctors facing unemployment from August? Maybe we will listen when we see more change. But at this rate, none of us will want to work in your NHS anymore.

The Government agreed to this submission to the DDRB for 25/26. Please note "The Government acknowledges... that the medical profession is not as attractive a career prospect as it once was".

'What we're really asking for is for a first year doctor to go from £17.50 an hour to just under £23 an hour'

Dr Melissa Ryan from the British Medical Association Resident Doctors Committee spoke to #BBCBreakfast as doctors in England take part in a ballot on industrial action over pay

If the Government can’t afford the staff then of course it can’t afford the service.

It should be no surprise that the service doesn’t run.

If you ever wanted to see how much @NHSE_WTE et al have failed- deliberately or otherwise- our Generation Next?

Look no further

A lot of people doing Education Roles
That is your legacy, I am afraid

Warning signals everywhere-listen up @wesstreeting

@noodles_nood Interesting to compare with mine as an SHO after two years in the NHS August 1995 - 27 years ago.

According to the Bank of England the buying power of my salary then would now be… £3704 gross or £2553 net ie you are £900 worse off a month compared to us.

Shocking.

"I can't offer a higher pay increase"

Please don't take us for fools. Every health sec before you said these words before magically making a better offer later.

I posted my YES vote for IA today before starting my shift because we deserve better. The country deserves better.

@PearsonVUE Hi, responded back with some questions. Thanks for the help

[Chandni @medic_cp]

@PearsonVUE I’ve done this

[Chandni @medic_cp]

Re #MSRA - unable to get email response for Pearson to book slot. I can’t book myself due to reasonable adjustments. No telephone line for UK. #MedTwitter @PearsonVUEA

@SteveBarclay @BMA_JuniorDocs @Telegraph BMA have been open to negotiation for months

[Mike Henley 🤨 @trentconsultant]

I came across this. It is entirely untrue. Junior doctors who are IMGs are not at risk. JDC will not run strike action that puts IMGs at risk of visa issues. Actual advice here https://t.co/mMkemWbvlX Please retweet to correct this outrageous nonsense.

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.

@NabilahMayat So sorry to hear this Nabilah

[Chandni @medic_cp]

After 6 years, countless exams, and a global pandemic, we made it!
Congrats to all the new doctors.
I could not have done this without the support of my family, friends, mentors and everyone who has been by my side - thank you so much.
