This 👇🏼 #juniordoctorsstrike It isn’t hard: 1-pay restoration 2- better rest facilities / working conditions 3- treat them with respect & take an interest in their wellbeing & future Otherwise we’ll lose more of them – at Wales, United Kingdom
It’s more than just increasing pay, it’s increasing how junior doctors are valued in this country so we don’t leave to work in others! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿#PayRestoration #DoctorsStrike

Wouldn’t it be good… – at Cardiff, Wales
Wouldn’t it be good if exit interviews for people leaving the #NHS were done by people independent of the hierarchy to learn what would retain them ?

We all need to wake up & wise up Especially senior medics.. it starts with less infantilising, making trainees feel valued and fighting their corner not criticising.. enough of that “in my day” rhetoric.. Gen Z Docs are awesome so let’s tell them they are and maybe they’ll stay – at Wales, United Kingdom
Responses of 73 F2s re. their plans for completion of F2. Unsurprisingly lots of F3, more than one has said “leave medicine” and another “get out asap”! How sad 😥 It’s not easy but it’s so rewarding and autonomy increases post F2 guys🙌🫶 #StickWithMedicine
