@BorisJohnson @sajidjavid @DailyMailUK @Daily_Express @Telegraph @TheSun @TheBMA @Conservatives - you all need to take a good long look in the mirror as you all have a responsibility for primary care failing despite our hard work to maintain it. History will blame you all.

APRIL FOOLS 🤬

@CFO_NHS They need more funding and investment 5 years ago.

@DrSdeG Look at the unnecessary packaging used for Maxalt Melts migraine meds made by MSD. Unfortunately they are not on Twitter. I have made a direct complaint to them which was completely ignored.

Why is it that some Practice Managers are valued by their GP partners but many are treated appallingly?

[The GP Practice Manager @practice_gp]

@JosephineBatte2 First of all, lucky her! Difficult to give specific advice as every PM role is different, buy above all else offer help where possible and keep an eye on her stress levels and just be there ❤️

[The GP Practice Manager @practice_gp]

Been away for a while as it's been absolutely relentless for practice managers. Seriously wonder how long many of us can last working at this pace and complexity, with more and more demand placed on us by staff, partners, PCNs and ICBs

[The GP Practice Manager @practice_gp]

Is it April 1st? Isn't this the DWPs actual responsivility? And where the actual f#ck do practices find the space? The people who come up with this tripe are seriously clueless!

GP practices could host job coaches to get over-50s back to work https://t.co/OSkWVjo2Mi

The 'new' government led by @RishiSunak clearly has not bothered to talk to anyone who has expertise in general practice. Like most things it's not as simple as it first appears and this policy would have a negative net impact on our resources.

[Dr Julia Grace Patterson💙 @JujuliaGrace]

Firstly, this will cost more for staff to do the paperwork, than it makes. And secondly, which patients do you think miss appointments most frequently? Vulnerable patients, patients struggling the most, patients with no transport. They deserve care.

This is stark raving bonkers. As if we have time to assess patients financial position! We don’t have enough clinical staff to provide health care as it is 😡 https://t.co/rUpZ70j1XM

You cannot build a perfect health system without a solid foundation. The NHS needs underpinning first as it’s subsiding and close to collapse. @NHSEngland @NHSTransform @TheBMA @nmcnews @rcgp

"NHS England looking for ‘quick wins’ to improve GP access this year"

Quick win recipe
1️⃣ Print out 19/20 AA compensation policy
2️⃣ Cross out 19/20, write 22/23
3️⃣ Announce it QUICKLY (before masses head for exit)

RT if you think this will help

Rest in peace Gail. This is on all who have starved primary care of adequate funding and ignored the warnings over the last 12 years and continue to do so. @NHSEngland @Conservatives @BorisJohnson @Jeremy_Hunt @theresa_may @David_Cameron @10DowningStreet

Sadly this describes where we are now 😢

Have you ever wondered what the collapse of the NHS would actually look like? It's in the small things - my latest @Independent newsletter: https://t.co/Xg6u9Fu3Kw

[The GP Practice Manager @practice_gp]

The NHS is the largest protector of highly sensitive and confidential information in the world. The current plans for data risk it’s reputation. Also the plans to give patients full access in July without the resource or means to redact data will cause legal issues in the future.

[The GP Practice Manager @practice_gp]

A sadly an all to common occurrence and receptionists hear that phrase a lot too 😢

[Nancy Peach @Mumhasdementia]

@DrPeterWeeks1 @drpoco True but hard to accept.
Just had colleague burst into tears in practice meeting - GP 30 years, says can't go on like this, had abusive call this morning from pt seen AE last night, offered F2F appt in an hour and not good enough, 'it'll be her fault if he dies' - all too much

National insurance rises to fund Health & social care. Below inflation uplift to GP contract for 22/23 and no funding of staff employer NI cost increase. Most will be left with less resource than 21/22. So where’s the “new” money going?

[The GP Practice Manager @practice_gp]

Government plan making a more concerted effort to work GPs into the ground?

Breaking: A GP will be required to cover all enhanced access shifts offered by #PCNs, @NHSEngland confirmed today https://t.co/WxWMwiKFkm
