Publishing the #NHSWorkforcePlan is a big step forwards but without addressing:
⭕Leaver rates in NHS staff
⭕Years of below inflation pay rises
Then training more staff will do little to address the problem if the NHS cannot hold onto the staff it already has.

[Dr Tony Goldstone @goldstone_tony]

NHS staff need "better paid jobs" too, Rishi

➡️Making the UK a great place work in healthcare
➡️Discourage UK talent fleeing for higher pay abroad
➡️RETAIN staff > waiting lists down > grow economy
➡️RETAIN to train increased numbers of future docs & nurses
➡️Restore pay fairly

To FAQs:
1) Report and data here: https://t.co/JUFXSaI396
2) Their analysis accounts for confounders such as e.g., boosters only being recent; rates are per 100k people per week.
3) Overall, the ICNARC analysis is exceptional. I just gave their dataviz a hand.

@LauraChurchward Laura, so easy for people to blame others to make political points. As a doctor on the frontline, I’d like to thank you and all my management colleagues. You have worked so hard to keep our hospital and our community safe.

We must learn from this, urgently, dispassionately & completely; without evasion or spin, starting right now, to prepare us for tomorrow & all the tomorrow’s that follow. To do anything less would be to dishonour those we have lost & those who fought to save them. #NHS #Covid19
