We’re excited to announce that we will be taking what it means to live with migraine to over 200 train stations in England. Our posters will highlight the many different ways #MigraineHurts and impacts every aspect of an individual’s life. It’s more than ‘just a headache’.

A little thread in memoriam of someone ✨️ who oozed humanity.
Today many of us have lost a true friend and colleague. I've known Katie since she first began working @NewcastleHosps – at West Molesey, South East

The NHS is broken but its vital signs are good.
Has #Darzi's review just made the business case for smarter use of and investment into #OccupationalHealth?

The NHS is now an open book. "The issues are laid bare for all to see. From this
shared starting point, I look forward to our collective endeavour to turn it around for the people of this country, and to secure its future for generations to come" #Darzi

Martin Lewis explains how Rishi Sunak misspoke during the #iTVDebate on state pensioners and tax
Not enough GPs. Govt say training more. Hoards of International medical graduates filling training posts. Unemployed GPs. Nothing adds up.
My new work colleague in Bolton is finishing her GP training soon, she is coming off the local VTS scheme. She told me only she and one other colleague have found jobs, the rest are jobless and are really worried about the future. That must be about 20 unemployed GPs from one scheme?
Why is this allowed to happen @VictoriaAtkins ?! Disgraceful.

medicine has a long, noble history of campaigning and advocating and challenging around public policy that affects health and healthcare
i would argue we often aren't political *enough* (doesn't have to be *party*-political) and people who say "too political" hate challenge

As soon as I stopped undertaking unpaid workloads & actually took lunch breaks, whilst still working at least half a day extra unpaid each week, "senior management" starting getting rather nasty with me. That was the point at which I put in my retirement papers. Sorry!

For years I did a 2 consultant clinic single handed. Few years before I retired I asked myself why am I doing this ? It’s was really stressful and crap for trainees and patients. I stuck to the rules and became less “ efficient”.

Reading the article it seems that it is not as simple as the headline suggests, which is basically a repeat of Hunt 2016 nonsense. This is more complicated, but still nonsense. A thread 🧵
NHS staff retention should be a priority. Where is the strategy?

It sounds like the drop in productivity is a surprise to NHS E ‘leaders’
Surprise- if you give people claps and then reward them with a pay reduction… it feels like a slap in the face.
The goodwill from NHS staff will naturally decrease
But what is going to be startling is this is a leading indicator for the attrition rates/churn of staff we can expect soon.
Over 20k doctors will leave the NHS this year
