At the end of my tether

[Secret NHS Worker @SecretNHSWorker]

The #NHS is failing it’s workforce over and over again. Too much red tape, no forward thinking in terms of recruitment and retention. Too much authority for a handful of people making life impossible for others.

Why do people who move into management from a clinical role, instantly forget the reality of the shop floor ?

[Secret NHS Worker @SecretNHSWorker]

It’s getting incredibly hard not to walk away from the job I love. Lack of support from management, lack of understand things at a shop floor level. Incredibly terrible payroll and IT services, and just all the general hoops you have to jump through day to day. Tired and sad.

Always wanting more for less, driving an already thin workforce to the brink…

[Neena Jha @DrNeenaJha]

What are NHSE doing?!

They’ve unilaterally imposed GPs undertake additional routine work 9-5 on Saturdays.

GP workforce in England is already in crisis
3 GPs are leaving the profession EVERY DAY

There isn’t the staff to cover Monday-Friday!

How much more can 1ry care take 😞

[Secret NHS Worker @SecretNHSWorker]

Any NHS trusts allowing less restrictions for patients receiving visitors? #MedTwitter

[Secret NHS Worker @SecretNHSWorker]

@CMO_England please consider changing the hospital visitors policy for those patients in MT/CVA/TBI beds. It’s severely impacting their mood, ability to rehab and therefore LOS

[Secret NHS Worker @SecretNHSWorker]

@FRSAMatthew If people can’t have visitors - mood is low- mods is low so they don’t take part in rehab - length of Stay increases - outcomes are not as they should be. These people report they feel like prisoners

[Secret NHS Worker @SecretNHSWorker]

@FRSAMatthew Please can you review the ‘no hospital visitors’ policy this is having a significant -ve effect on all those patients undergoing MT/ CVAs/head injuries who tend to have long hospital stays. Ask visitors to do a supervised test, one named visitor - anything. It needs to change.

[Secret NHS Worker @SecretNHSWorker]

Ah the tents are our new hospitals aren’t they? 8 down, 32 to go.

[Dr Rachel Clarke @doctor_oxford]

Basically, they laughed and partied while we died.

I don’t know what else to say.

[Robert Peston @Peston]

Just to be clear, it would be nonsensical for @AllegraCOP26 to have resigned if the Downing Street party had never happened, and she wasn't conspicuously making light of it. So she has just blown up the prime minister's "I've been assured the party never happened"

[Jess Phillips @jessphillips]

Weird for someone to resign over a party that didn't happen.

[Secret NHS Worker @SecretNHSWorker]

@Sue__Davies @BNUSchoolofNMAH @BucksSU_UXB @buckssu Can’t believe stuff like this still happens. When I was a student once, they wanted us to eat elsewhere but come back to wash their cups. I refused.
Horrible way to segregate people

[Holly @SocialistHB]

How about retaining the staff we have? We’ve got a recruitment and retention crisis due to your cuts which have left workers in poverty, and trying to deliver care in increasingly dangerous and pressured conditions.

[Secret NHS Worker @SecretNHSWorker]

[Surgical SHO CT BNO (2019) @AbdoPainHotline]

Dear hospitals,

Stop sending emails to remind clinicians to 'avoid unnecessary admissions' and 'prioritise safe discharges'. What do you think we do all day? It's offensive. It's unhelpful. It's gaslighting.

Staff are not the problem, nor the solution.

We are beyond capacity.

[Kevin Maguire @Kevin_Maguire]

Tory MPs rushed back from a Conservative Winter Ball fundraiser charging £35,000 for dinner with Sunak and £22,000 karaoke with Truss to vote for poorer homeowners to sell their homes for social care after paying tax rises.

Welcome to Boris Johnson’s undercutting Britain.

[Secret NHS Worker @SecretNHSWorker]

Heartbreaking. How is our NHS supposed to survive ?

[Faye Shepherd @Faye_Shepherd]

During last night’s 14.5hr shift, we saw ONE patient.

That’s not because there’s no demand, but because we were stuck at hospital for the entire duration, waiting for bed space.

Meanwhile, people are dying waiting for ambulances. What part of this is sustainable @sajidjavid ?

[Secret NHS Worker @SecretNHSWorker]

Also, don’t you have declare other jobs to your primary employer? We do in the NHS.

So shouldn’t we know, MP’s second jobs. They supposedly work for us after all 😏
