Huge thanks to all GPs and other primary care staff across the UK who worked all weekend to ensure urgent primary care was still available to patients when the NHS 111 and GP out of hours systems came under a cyber-attack. We are so grateful for your dedication and commitment.

Thank you @DrGregorSmith the response from all teams working together has been immense. @SG_PrimaryCare @RCGPScotland @AndrewBuist17
Providing out of hours care is far from straightforward at best of times but with loss of IT system becomes extremely challenging. Thank you to everyone involved across @NHS24 / health board OOH / @NHSNSS for their Herculean efforts over the weekend @sevensian @RyanDrlauraryan 🙏🏻

The brilliant @HarrietMinter delivers today's closing address on Leadership in action: lifting others as you climb. 'Be nice to people on the way up, because you never know who you are going to meet on the way down. Probably the best advice anyone has ever given me'. #WiL22

Today in 1948 the UK National Health Services were born…based, of course, on the Higjlands and Islands health service. Free at the point of delivery. There are challenges and imperfections but it is a precious and unique endeavour. Thanks to all who make it possible. #NHS74

Please be considerate to GPs.
Abusive behaviour causes mental and physical harm to healthcare workers, leading to time off work and less time with patients.

If a clearer message was required about why this cannot be a normal Hogmanay and new year celebration I’m afraid today’s data are it. Please celebrate with only your own household. 2622 got a positive test report yesterday and 68 people died in the last few days. Please. 👇🏼
1,372,469 people in Scotland have been tested for #coronavirus
The total confirmed as positive has risen by 2,622 to 127,453

Thank you so much for taking the time to feedback Lauren it’s really appreciated and I will let out OOHs clinician know. I hope you are feeling better
Had an unplanned trip to out of hours tonight. Can’t fault the staff at NHS24 and RIE OOH clinic. Felt safe throughout and staff were fab. @NHS_Lothian @NHS24

Might make you smile 🤣 A customer recently contacted us for details of services to #Craiglang. ^Paul was on shift and not being from Scotland sought help from his colleagues after his frantic searching for this station and its services came back blank. 🤷♂️
You've been had Paul.
