@LSchuwirth@drjfrank@LaraVarpio Agree, was it was amazing, thought provoking and a conference highlight. But I suspect you are not envying my 32 hour trip back home from Lyon to Aus….
I’ve been watching this play out & @ian_hickie it’s not ok.
During the pandemic Australia’s GPs have been the absolute engine room of our health response, are woefully underpaid & are beyond exhausted.
They’re our frontliners AND do the bulk of MH work.
We must support them.
And the response to the MJA insights article last week. Finally, an accurate article by practicing GPs. Why was the MJA willing to publish articles on general practice mental health without any collaboration by GPs? Would that be acceptable in any specialty?
Sigh "GPs wrote >1.2 million mental health plans ... but only 1/3 were reviewed, meaning patients’ progress was largely unmonitored by their GPs." No, GPs billed a 1/3 of their reviews using a MH Medicare number. The rest were billed with other numbers.

It’s two game changers! Both self-collection for cervical screening: great science and advocacy from all involved; and the RACGP curriculum which is paired with a syllabus for the very first time - amazing education work by inspiring GP authors from around the country.
From today, women and people with a cervix can choose to self-collect for cervical screening. See how our new Curriculum and Syllabus Women’s Health unit includes activities and resources on this welcome change. https://t.co/IaImXJtxCl
18 million vaccines in Primary care. Still the biggest mass vaccination centre in the country. General Practice is awesome. The community trust placed in us we both understand and treasure. I said it this morning. GPs care about their communities and ensuring vaccination. 👍
@DrJoannaT Thanks @DrJoannaT Great to hear your thoughts. Legitimising expert judgement and shared subjectivity alongside objectivity can add significant value in ensuring learners are better equipped to be the health professionals required of the 21st century. https://t.co/dnRa6IvhXD
Paper by the paper, the PhD is progressing (thanks to brilliant supervisor support!) Looking beyond an objective paradigm, what makes subjective judgments in assessments fair? Here is one conversation starter on this complex topic. https://t.co/L04yAYMc2x

Just finished 13 discussion groups in 16 days, with close to 100 GP supervisors, educators, new fellows and trainees. Exhausting, but now have a greater appreciation of their reality, challenges, problems and solutions to inform the new RACGP syllabus. Grateful for their input!
@brookmanknight And the practice nurses. One of ours was almost in tears yesterday afternoon. These are amazing people who do this job because they care. The constant changes and lack of offical communication about said changes is hard enough with adding patient flak to the mix.
@DrAndrewHuang@USUhealthsci@Flinders@LSchuwirth Thanks! Agree, many parallels between just & fair, with learning to be had from this perspective. This review will hopefully move forward the conversation about how to better embrace subjective judgement. Next study considers learners & supervisors viewpoints on fair judgement.
What makes human judgement fair in #MedEd? Looking beyond objectivity, fairness can be conceptualised through values and upheld at individual and system levels. Having a shared narrative is important. https://t.co/2vM8tLHlQD @LSchuwirth@advhlthsciedu
